LIVE from London, join me for my conversation with Giulio Boccaletti, Ph.D., discussing his book, Water: A Biography, published by Pantheon Books.  Water: A Biography is in the process of being translated in seven languages. Giulio is an author, entrepreneur, senior executive, and a globally recognized expert on natural resource security and environmental sustainability. He writes on environmental issues for news media, and is an expert contributor to the World Economic Forum, which named him one of its Young Global Leaders. He also routinely contributes to documentary series. Trained as a physicist and climate scientist, Giulio holds a doctorate from Princeton University, where he was a NASA Earth Systems Science Fellow. He has been a research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a partner of the global consulting firm McKinsey & Company and a leader of its sustainability practice, and the chief strategy officer of The Nature Conservancy, the largest environmental organization in the world. He is an Honorary Research Associate in the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment at Oxford University. He lives in London.
