Water Solutions Benets (Source: UN)

Healthy aquatic ecosystems and improved water management can lower greenhouse gas emissions and protect against climate hazards.

Wetlands such as mangroves, seagrasses, marshes, and swamps are highly effective carbon sinks that absorb and store CO2, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Wetlands also serve as a buffer against extreme weather events. They provide a natural shield against storm surges and absorb excess water and precipitation. Wetlands also provide water storage and purication through the plants and microorganisms that they house.

Early warning systems for oods, droughts, and other water-related hazards provide a more than tenfold return on investment and can signicantly reduce disaster risk: a 24-hour warning of a coming storm can cut the ensuing damage by 30 percent.

Water supply and sanitation systems that can withstand climate change could save the lives of more than 360,000 infants every year.

Climate-smart agriculture using drip irrigation and other means of using water more efciently can help reduce the demand for freshwater supplies.
