Water is crucial to life and all forms of social, economic, and environmental development. Water scarcity is both a local and global issue, further impacted by climate change. With concerns building over the world's supply of drinking water, people put more emphasis on water technology, which holds the key to solving the crisis. Under this circumstance, Water Tech Asia 2008 will be held from October 14th to 16th, 2008 in Shanghai Marriott Hotel Hongqiao, China by Global Leaders Institute.
