2021 Lausanne conference

The 2021 Conference, From Water to Air; Scientific Pathways towards a Clearer, Cleaner Future., took place in Lausanne, Switzerland in partnership with World Frontiers Forum, and Jason Learning.

The program focused on the challenges that exist and those that lie ahead if we do not properly address the issues that the planet currently faces. Air and water are critically joined in life on the planet. Air without water, like water without air, does not sustain life. The recent pandemic has engendered additional focus on this essential reality as science has worked to unravel the characteristics of the virus transmission. Poor air quality is a leading cause of death in developing countries and clean water an increasingly scare resource. We considered many of the scientific insights and breakthrough discoveries including new modes of breathing hygiene, energy generation, and water procurement that can provide a sustainable pathway forward.
