The world is facing a shortage of drinking water due to global warming, seasonal droughts, and industrial development:

– In Germany, at one of the main monitoring stations in the city of Kaub, the water level in the Rhine River dropped to 19 cm, setting a new all-time low since records began.

– Authorities in European countries are resorting to extreme measures, including blasting riverbeds, due to the critical drought on the Danube. In Romania, the government has deployed the navy to carry out underwater rock blasting in the village of Izvoarele to divert water to cool the Cernavoda Nuclear Power Plant, whose only operating reactor has already had to be temporarily shut down.

— Moldova has declared a 30-day hydrological alert, as the water level in the Dniester Reservoir has dropped to 113.24 m (the normal level is 121 m).

— The Netherlands is officially in a state of water shortage due to the heat and low river flows. Water is still available from the taps, but authorities are already restricting irrigation and conserving resources.

— Roughly half of humanity faces water scarcity. Global demand has been growing by nearly 1% per year since the 1980s.

— The planet loses approximately 324 billion m³ of fresh water annually—enough to supply 280 million people for a year.

— Wars over water are already underway or emerging around the world, such as between Ethiopia and Egypt.

According to the European Commission, by 2030, demand could exceed supply by 40%.
