Manyof these issues arise from a centralized approach to water resource management in urban areas,and a decreased reliance on large centralized water infrastructure projects may help decrease thefeedbacks which themselves may negatively impact our water supplies, or at least contribute tothe uncertainty of regional and global climate.Additionally, the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission has stated in its report on reuse in theBoston area that: “[A] deliberate and sustainable approach to water resources [must be taken] ifwe are to expand economic development and maintain our high quality of life...

antibiotic resistance as a significant global threat to health and development and have noted that we are on course to quickly enter a post-antibiotic era – an end to modern medicine. In recognition of this threat, the May 2015 World Health Assembly is expected to adopt a Global Action Plan on antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The conservation of current antibiotics is particularly important for combatting AMR. The development of new therapeutics is critical, but ultimately a temporary fix if the global community does not practice measures to conserve antibiotics. Antibiotic stewardship is challenging because it hinges on a variety of social and behavioral phenomena. Social science, while
