Wastewater - Turning Problem to Solution Wastewater - Turning Problem to Solution Wastewater is a growing health and environmental threat, accounting for almost as many planet warming emissions as the aviation industry. Yet, with the right policies, wastewater could be an invaluable resource, providing alternative energy to half a billion people, supplying over 10 times the water provided by current global desalination capacity and offsetting over 10 per cent of global fertilizer use.    More than 10 years have passed since the release of the report ' Sick Water?
