	Description:		Sharlene Leurig, Water Program Director at Ceres, joins The Water Values Podcast this week to discuss the impact of climate change on water. Sharlene takes us on economy-wide tour of water’s impact on climate change from its impact on Toyota’s operations and shipping to utility-side impacts such as the implementation of green infrastructure. Sharlene also addresses how cities are using innovative green infrastructure programs like the San Francisco Public Utility Commission’s recycled water use in its building and Philadelphia’s use of green infrastructure. She also addresses some of the challenges of funding the investments needed to cope with our infrastructure needs, from rating agencies issues to government-imposed limits in debt instruments, like bonds. Tune in for a great discussion about how climate change is impacting water and how water utilities are adapting.
