Ecosystem components is the major influences on water include forests,
grasslands, wetlands and soils; working together to deliver water security the
benefits at local, regional and global scales
The impacts of climate change occur primarily through changes in the
water cycle and this influence on ecosystems. Ecosystem based approaches are
therefore a primary response for adapting to climate change and this is largely
about managing water.
Ecosystems are natural water
infrastructure that can serve the same purpose as built or physical
infrastructure, such as dams and water treatment plants; natural and built
water infrastructure can be managed together to achieve sustainable outcomes,
increasing efficiency, reducing costs and delivering significant co-benefits.
These are win-win outcomes between environment and development.

Individuals, policymakers, horticulturalists, landowners, youth and
