About the 2018 Summit

TOO MUCH, TOO LITTLE

The varied geography of the 10X study area will be especially impacted by climate change, as clearly evidenced through the issue of water. Drought conditions are becoming the new normal in the Southwest. Coastal degredation and inundation are already hallmarks of the Gulf region. Balanced between these two extreme conditions, the first 10X Water Summit explored not only the complexities of water—whether too much or too little—but the greater questions of our capacity to respond to matters of such great magnitude.
