In July 2017, Paris rolled out its “Circular Economy Plan”: a concrete 15 point roadmap to 2020. In 2050, cities will be home to 65% of the world’s population – bringing with them the major economic and ecological challenges of our time. They need to take up the challenge of sustainability now – the circular economy offers a concrete solution. It is based on using resources in a loop to give waste a second life. Among the cities already committed to the circular economy Paris is a pioneer. In recent years, the French capital has encouraged businesses, shops and citizens to adopt more circular practices.
Climate change expected to intensify the demands of water use in agriculture as climate is the major driving force for crop production and water use. Studies on climate change have indicated the variation in temperature and precipitation patterns globally due to increased concentration of greenhouse gases. Global warming and its consequences have shown remarkable impacts on regional hydrologic cycle. Temperature and precipitation are two important climate parameters and plays a vital role in crop production system. The rise in air temperature and varying precipitation pattern may affect the crop yield and water use efficiency. Rise in temperature is likely to increase the evapotranspiration demand and water requirement for agriculture.
