FEW is the future of humanity and an important issue for the sustainable development of the planet.
Globally rapid urban expansion and tough climate change are placing unprecedented demands on the food, energy, and water (FEW) systems. How to meet current basic needs and future development requirements of human populations around the world is a common and urgent issue. Human race’s joint efforts are strongly needed in this place.
What is FEW?
How are they related?
FEW stands for food, energy, water — the most basic requirements for humanity survival.
FEW has remained the foundation of human‘s life for millenniums before us, and it will remain the foundation for the years to come regardless of the pace of technical innovation. FEW share a web of interdependent relationships. Agriculture accounts for 70% of our freshwater usage, and more than one-quarter of global energy is expended on food production and supply. Similarly, the energy sector depends on water, with 90% of global power generation categorized as highly water intensive.
