Water Negotiator Aaron Wolf Spreads Liquid Hope
Wolf’s calling takes him all over the world, wherever bodies of water—usually rivers—are shared by two or more countries. A dam built upstream, on one side of the border, will affect the flow of water on the other side. Whose needs are more important? Is generating electricity the priority? What about pollution?
“Everywhere you find real tension,” he says, “you’ll also find shared rivers.”
