dc.description.abstractWater supply and demand presents an immense challenge for communities around the world. The future impacts of climate change and population growth are expected to intensify global water stress as freshwaters become more scarce and human competition over weakened water resources increases. Our society needs to adapt our current water supply system to our changing environment in the same way that organisms have adapted over the course of Earth’s history to survive various environmental stressors. Taking inspiration from nature– using biomimicry– we can devise more efficient ways of collecting and using water resources.en_US
