    The UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned of a growing global water crisis and called for urgent action to address it. He said humanity is draining and evaporating its lifeblood of water through overconsumption and unsustainable use, destroying ecosystems and contaminating groundwater. Developing countries are the most vulnerable to record inflation, soaring energy prices, and high interest rates, which could lead to debt defaults and crisis. Guterres urged countries to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius and provide climate financing to developing nations, and proposed a Climate Solidarity Pact for big emitters to cut emissions and support emerging economies. The discussion focused on understanding the crisis from different perspectives, reflecting on feelings around specific incidents,

    https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/03/1134887

    Opening 2 min. Refer to call of UN Chief


    In the coming half hour we are going to explore the issue of the global
    water crisis the world is facing on different levels.
    It would be wonderful if we could hear all your voices.
    There are no wrong or right answers. This no debate, this is a focused
    conversation in where we want to look at the global crisis from all
    possible levels and perspectives.
    Engage yourself in this conversation, listen as good as you can to what
    others have to say and contribute where you can.

    Objective level 5 “We are draining humanity’s lifeblood through vampiric


    overconsumption and unsustainable use, and evaporating it through
    global heating. We’ve broken the water cycle, destroyed ecosystems
    and contaminated groundwater.” 
     What examples do we know?
     Have you read about such cases in the media?
     In what countries
     What happened exactly?
     What is divergence between developed and developing countries?
     What behaviors or responses did you observe?
     What feelings did you observe?
    Guterres also spoke about “Unless we take action now, record
    inflation, soaring energy prices and extortionate interest rates could
    lead to frequent debt defaults, with dire consequences for the poorest
    and most vulnerable,” he warned. “The divergence between developed
    and developing countries is becoming systemic – a recipe for instability,
    crisis and forced migration.”
     Have you heard of such incidents?
     Who are the most vulnerable?
     What happened exactly?

    Interpretive level 5  Can we begin to understand what is happening here?

     Have we seen these kind of phenomena before in history?
     How have other groups dealt with these issues?
     What kind of changes do we want to see?
     What values are we holding here?
    Decisional level 5 The Secretary-General also called for addressing climate change, his
    final point. “Climate action and a sustainable water future are two sides
    of the same coin,” he said.   He urged countries to  “spare no effort” to
    limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius  and deliver climate justice
    to developing countries.   Mr. Guterres recalled his proposal to the G20
    most-industralised nations to establish a  Climate Solidarity Pact  in
    which all big emitters make extra efforts to cut emissions.Wealthier
    countries would  also mobilize financial and technical resources to
    support emerging economies.
