Wastewater treatment and aquaculture are often seen as part of the emissions problem. This session challenges that view. Through concrete examples and policy perspectives, speakers will show how resource recovery can cut methane and nitrous oxide emissions at the source, while strengthening food security, energy resilience and circularity. The result is cleaner water, a cooler climate and greater value from every drop.
