As we start a new decade the problems of the past are not only catching up with us but reaching crisis levels.
Water and energy needs are at all time deficits even with new technologies being available to alleviate the supply shortages.

The only conclusion then is either policy makers or disjointed financial models and mechanisms stand in the way of service delivery.
