In the second of our debates exploring the water, food and energy nexus, Jo Confino talks to Camilla Toulmin, director of the International Institute for Environment and Development, David Norman, director of external affairs at WWF UK, and Herbert Oberhänsli, vice president, economics and international relations at Nestlé, about the role of water and food in energy production and why these three resources are so intertwined.
Among the items on the agenda are biofuels, dams, biodiversity, the use of water in energy production, and the role of multinationals in creating problems – and providing solutions.
This is an audio version of the debates that were streamed in video live on guardian.co.uk. To watch the debates in video, click here.
