Powerful interview piece from @katlay with @UKAMREnvoy on why we need to control and mitigate #AMR “Climate will play out in many ways, but think about flood water, displacement, storms - what they spread and the lack of clean water if you’ve got drought; infections do go up.”

Today is #WorldWaterDay. 703 million people in the world still don't have clean water close to home. It was great to welcome @WaterAidUK to Parliament to support their message to invest globally in safe water infrastructure.

Today at #COP28's water day, the UK announced £38 million for global water security. Chief Exec @WainwrightTim says this is a welcomed first step to ensure communities can adapt to #climatechange, but we need more nations to follow suit and for funding to be unlocked at pace.
