Dear Colleagues,

You are invited to join the Water Pollution and Climate Change Working Group (WPCCWG
2011), third annual Water Pollution and Climate Change Conference focused on the
practical applications of social and behavioural research to achieve viable
solutions to water pollution/climate challenges. It builds on the overwhelming
success of previous WPCCWG conferences at which 800 participants from universities,
government, corporations and organizations discussed successful policy and program
strategies, shared important research findings, and created dynamic new networks and
collaborations.
