„O situație excepțional de gravă”: Mai mult de jumătate din teritoriul Angliei se confruntă cu „o secetă fulgerătoare”

Over half of England is currently facing a severe drought due to low rainfall and high temperatures. July is on track to become the driest month ever recorded. The Environment Agency reports that many regions are experiencing critical water shortages, leading to early harvests and increased fire risks. Restrictions on water usage are affecting millions. The situation is exacerbated by consecutive summers of drought, which could have lasting impacts on the environment and economy.
