"Water is now an existential problem." President of Singapore Tharman Shanmugaratnam says to avoid a global water crisis, we'll have to rethink food, investing and how we scale up new tech — and do it together. "We're all in this together, and we will all benefit together."

.@Tharman_s: Jobs have to be a defining challenge with whole of govt & international attention. We must replicate what has worked in education, skills & private sector job creation, while addressing new challenges from AI, digitalization & decarbonization. wrld.bg/FC2C50TSAnL

Wetlands and forests, which store huge amounts of carbon, rely on stable water cycles and thriving biodiversity to function. Without urgent, collective action, the effects of climate change, biodiversity loss, and the water crisis will only intensify.

Water is the lifeblood of our economies in a world where we're changing the water supply. It's mispriced & mismanaged. By 2050, changes in rainfall & access could cut GDP by up to 15% in low-income countries. Time to rethink water economics. nature.com/articles/s4422…

I couldn't agree more with President Tharman Shanmugaratnam that stepping up internationally coordinated investments and actions are necessary to prevent and prepare for future pandemics. The proposed #PandemicAccord is one such approach to do this. My thanks to #Singapore for its

Excellent exchange with President Tharman Shanmugaratnam today in Singapore. The EU is a reliable partner for the region — and we are closer than ever to Singapore, united by a shared vision of a rules-based international order.
