"The Hidden Wealth of Nations: The Economics of Groundwater in Times of Climate Change" report offers new data and evidence that advances understanding of the value of groundwater, the costs of mismanagement, and the opportunities to leverage its potential.

"The Hidden Wealth of Nations: The Economics of Groundwater in Times of Climate Change" report offers new data and evidence that advances understanding of the value of groundwater, the costs of mismanagement, and the opportunities to leverage its potential. Its findings also reflect on the policy issues policymakers confront when attempting to align the private and social costs of groundwater use. A central message of this report is that groundwater needs to be politically prioritized and should be carefully managed through integrated cross-sectoral action to benefit society, the economy, and the environment. 2023-06-23T17:34:36Z 2023-06-23T17:34:36Z 2023-06-23 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/099257006142358468/IDU0fb2550de013100434708d920a3e3bec6afb1 https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/handle/10986/39917 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank application/pdf text/plain application/pdf application/pdf Washington, DC: World Bank
