🦸‍♂️ How a fifth approach might well trump them all, by incentivizing water reuse 

💪 How we might have to 5x water reuse in the coming decade 

🤝🏿  How private sector, multilateral organization, development agencies and governments will have to work hand in hand to develop water reuse 

💰 How the US infrastructure bill will apply to the water sector, and what the $55 billion there will be allocated to 

❇️ How the scattered nature of the water utility scene in the US can prevent rapid actions from being taken 

🍏 How decentralized water reuse might be a powerful solution, and how the 50L Home coalition promotes this direction

🌱 How piloting reuse solutions goes beyond a pure technological assessment 

🍎 How water tariffs and their absence when it comes to river and groundwater are crucial influencers for the adoption of reuse
