Juliette Lassman, OECD: „Criza apei este deja aici”. Cum se pregătește Europa pentru perioadele în care apa nu mai ajunge pentru toată lumea

Water scarcity is already a pressing issue in Europe, affecting transport, energy production, and agriculture. Juliette Lassman from OECD highlights the need for better water management strategies, especially in countries like Hungary and Romania. She emphasizes that climate change is not the sole cause of this crisis; historical water management practices also play a significant role. Countries must establish clear priorities for water use during shortages to avoid conflicts and ensure essential services are maintained. Effective legislation can help prepare for future water scarcity, encouraging sustainable practices in agriculture and industry.
