Abstract

In order to evaluate the potential benefit and negative impacts of urbanization on the water-energy-food nexus, analyses have been made in Asia-Pacific countries with production-consumption relationships of water-energy-food nexus. Negative correlations have been found between urbanization rates and energy consumption rates for water and food production. This is because of the difference in decision making processes of resource development as urbanization progresses. Some positive relationships have been found between water consumption for energy production and Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and between water consumption for food production and hydro-meteorological conditions such as dry or wet countries.
