Seth M. Siegel shared his passion for averting a water crisis in this country and around the world with community members on Sunday, Nov. 1 at the Simon Family JCC.
Siegel, the keynote speaker for the Lee and Bernard Jaffe* Family Jewish Book Festival, recently released Let There Be Water: Israel’s Solution for a Water-Starved World. The book is an account of how Israel developed its sophisticated approach to water. As Siegel warned listeners, a water crisis is coming to the United States (as it already has in some states). “We need to stop taking our water future for granted, and start learning from what Israel did right,” he said.
