ABOUT PETER'S WORK
Peter Gleick is a conservation analyst and a leader in efforts to underscore the importance and finite nature of global fresh water resources. While water policy is typically considered in many contexts, each tends to be limited in scope: human consumption, ecological habitat, irrigation, power generation, etc. Gleick brings to these considerations a synthetic approach, highlighting the interdependence of security, health, environment, and economic development and the place of water as critical nexus between and among these key sectors. Gleick is a founder of the Pacific Institute, a center for research and policy on water and climate change. He and the Institute serve regularly as thoughtful and reliable sources for scientific analyses on policy issues related to water, water availability, water quality and water needs in the interest of global security, development and the environment. He publishes The World’s Water, a biennial review of data critical to fresh water analyses. He maintains a project studying the role water has played, past and present, in shaping international conflict. He regularly analyzes policy proposals and decisions, consistently addressing the current politics of water with its emphases on creating new water supplies (e.g., dam construction) over decreasing consumption and more efficient uses of existing resources. Throughout, Gleick argues that access to sufficient quality and quantity of water is a basic right, an essential consideration at the core of local, national, and international fresh water policy. By defragmenting the social, political, economic, and environmental considerations determining water resource development and allocation, Gleick has established a standard and a framework for water policy decisions today and in the future.

BIOGRAPHY
Peter Gleick received a B.S. (1978) from Yale University, and an M.S. (1980) and a Ph.D. (1986) from the University of California, Berkeley. In 1987, Gleick co-founded the Pacific Institute of Studies in Development, Environment, and Security in Oakland, California, and currently serves as president. He is the author of numerous articles and books, including The World's Water: The Biennial Report on Freshwater Resources (1998, 2000, 2002). Gleick was elected an Academician of the International Water Academy, in Oslo, Norway (1999) and appointed to the Water Science and Technology Board of the National Academy of Sciences (2001).

关于彼得的工作
彼得-格里克是一位保护分析家，也是努力强调全球淡水资源的重要性和有限性的领导者。虽然水政策通常在许多情况下被考虑，但每一个都倾向于有限的范围：人类消费、生态栖息地、灌溉、发电，等等。Gleick为这些考虑带来了一种综合的方法，强调了安全、健康、环境和经济发展的相互依存关系，以及水在这些关键部门之间的关键联系的地位。格利克是太平洋研究所的创始人，该研究所是一个关于水和气候变化的研究和政策中心。他和研究所经常作为周到和可靠的来源，对与水、水供应、水质和水需求有关的政策问题进行科学分析，以利于全球安全、发展和环境。他出版了《世界之水》，这是一本两年一度的对淡水分析至关重要的数据的评论。他维持着一个研究水在过去和现在对国际冲突所起作用的项目。他定期分析政策建议和决定，不断讨论当前的水政治，强调创造新的水供应（如水坝建设），而不是减少消耗和更有效地利用现有资源。自始至终，Gleick认为获得足够质量和数量的水是一项基本权利，是地方、国家和国际淡水政策的核心考虑。通过分解决定水资源开发和分配的社会、政治、经济和环境因素，Gleick为今天和未来的水政策决策建立了一个标准和框架。

个人简历
