The water-energy nexus is a key theme that emerges from the podcast episodes, which explore the interconnectedness of water and energy issues, particularly in the context of desalination and other water technologies.

In Diving into Desalination, the discussion covers the high energy demands of desalination processes and the need to develop innovative solutions to address this water-energy tradeoff. Similarly, One World One Water discusses the energy requirements of desalination and other water treatment technologies, highlighting the importance of addressing the water-energy nexus to tackle climate change and water scarcity.

These episodes illustrate how the water-energy nexus is a critical consideration for developing sustainable water management strategies and technologies.
