This month, water once again takes center stage at the Fourth World Water Forum in Mexico City. It is an opportune moment: while much of the world’s attention has been fixed on issues of energy supply and security, hundreds of millions of people in the developing world continue to see the supply and security of fresh water as equally, if not more, important.
水的问题再次成为本月在墨西哥城举行的第四届世界水资源论坛的中心议题。这是一个有利时机：虽然全球大多数人的注意力集中在能源供应和安全问题上，但发展中国家仍有数以亿计的人口同样关注（甚至更加重视）淡水的供应和保障问题。
