On Sunday, January 7, 2018 from 4:30-6:00 pm over 100 Santa Feans heard Dr. Clive Lipchin, Director of the Center for Transboundary Water Management, speak on how Israel has turned from a water poor country to a water rich country through efficient water management, centralized water planning, effective conservation, improved agriculture use of drip irrigation and brackish water, recycling, and desalination.
