Water availability in Quebec: Challenges and innovative approaches
Presentation summary
This presentation will address the issue of water availability and will unveil some tools developed by the Ministère de l’Environnement, de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs to better regulate water withdrawals.
