Shlomo Ben Ami: Middle East Should Form Water Union
November 4, 2008 – 10:48 am
Circle of Blue|Water News, a nonprofit concerned with the global freshwater crisis and its solutions, has an interesting report on a proposal by former Israeli foreign minister Shlomo Ben Ami: “Perhaps the conflicts in the Middle East might be easier to solve when civilians can meet their everyday water and energy needs, suggests…Ben Ami. Ami believes the answer to unrest in the region might be very similar to the answer post-war Europe embraced: create a union, a Middle East Water and Energy Union that is.”
