Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável, Saneamento básico, Perdas de água, Nexus Água-Energia-Alimento, SustentabilidadeResumo
Existe uma relação antagônica entre o desenvolvimento sustentável e as perdas de água. Este artigo tem como objetivo discutir o impacto das perdas de água nos sistemas de abastecimento sobre o ODS 6, bem como em outros ODS que estão (in)diretamente associados à água. Essas relações foram estruturadas com base em um arranjo conceitual, que inclui perdas de água, sustentabilidade e desenvolvimento sustentável, governança dos recursos hídricos e os conceitos do Nexus Água-Energia-Alimento. O estudo é original ao apresentar uma análise abrangente da influência que as perdas de água exercem na concretização dos ODS. As conclusões indicam que as perdas de água podem influenciar (in)diretamente todas as metas do ODS 6, assim como pelo menos 10 outros ODS. Conclui-se que é necessária uma ampliação dos esforços para reduzir as perdas de água, a fim de acelerar o desenvolvimento sustentável e o cumprimento dos ODS, especialmente diante das pressões atuais das...
