Forestil dig et land med masser af energikilder - olie og gas, solskin, vind (og penge) - men som mangler det vigtigste element for liv: vand.
Infrastrukturingeniør Fahad Al-Attiya taler om uventede måder hvorpå den lille mellemøstlige nation Qatar skaffer sig vand.

Et land uden vand

Qatar transformed from a scattered desert society with almost no water to a modern nation of 1.7 million people, boasting one of the world’s highest water consumption rates. With only 74 millimeters of rainfall a year and importing 90 percent of its food, survival depends on technology like desalination powered by abundant energy resources. The country now aims to use solar power for sustainable water and food security, ensuring long-term resilience in one of the planet’s driest regions.
