This paper was based on a series of serious research results and publications. This paper formulated in a crystal clear form the following statement:
aquatic biodiversity (the entire biological community of organisms which live in water bodies and streams) function together as a hi-tech biomachinery to clean water, to maintain water quality.
This fundamental scientific result leads to an urgent practical conclusion.
The conclusion is: it is impossible to maintain water quality (in other words, water safety, water sustainability, proper water supply) without protecting the entire biodiversity of aquatic ecosystems (water bodies and streams).
This conclusion calls for a serious change in water management.
This conclusion means a call for serious changes in policies on environmental management.
Biodiversity protection is no longer a matter of being humane. It is a matter of having proper water supply.
22 scientific institutions including top universities as Ghent University (Belgium; the university is associated with 5 Nobel Laureates), Uppsala University (Sweden; the university is associated with 15 Nobel Laureates), Universite libre de Bruxelles (associated with 5 Nobel Laureates), and others supported this fundamental concept. This paper was also cited by scientists of the U.S.A., Germany and other countries.

Letter
Internationally, the importance of a coordinated effort to protect both biodiversity and public health is more and more recognized. These issues are often concentrated or particularly challenging in urban areas, and therefore on-going urbanization worldwide raises particular issues both for the conservation of living natural resources and for population health strategies. These challenges include significant difficulties associated with sustainable management of urban ecosystems, urban development planning, social cohesion and public health. An important element of the challenge is the need to interface between different forms of knowledge and different actors from science and policy. We illustrate this with examples from Belgium, showcasing concrete cases of human–nature interaction. To better tackle these challenges, since 2011, actors in science, policy and the broader Belgian society have launched a number of initiatives to deal in a more integrated manner with combined biodiversity and public health challenges in the face of ongoing urbanization. This emerging community of practice in Belgium exemplifies the importance of interfacing at different levels. (1) Bridges must be built between science and the complex biodiversity/ecosystem–human/public health–urbanization phenomena. (2) Bridges between different professional communities and disciplines are urgently needed. (3) Closer collaboration between science and policy, and between science and societal practice is needed. Moreover, within each of these communities closer collaboration between specialized sections is needed.
