Editorial note: To celebrate another successful year, BC Water News will publish the most popular articles according to our readers during our holiday hiatus, resuming publication on Dec. 31.

In 2024, the water sector set out to increase resiliency with a focus on innovation and community.

From research and development of groundbreaking solutions that address critical water challenges such as climate adaptation and water scarcity to implementing state-of-the-art technologies in water treatment and distribution, the industry has also renewed its vision to create a workforce that better reflects our diversity, equity, and inclusion.

As the industry collaborates more efficiently to address these goals, we continue to strive towards keeping our communities and the environment healthy and thriving.
