„Slăbiciunea combustibililor fosili”, expusă de seceta care lovește Europa

Severe drought in Europe highlights the vulnerability of fossil fuel-based energy systems, particularly in Poland, where low river levels have forced coal plants to reduce output. The Vistula River's critical water shortage has impacted cooling systems, leading to a significant drop in energy production. Despite the environmental concerns, plans for new gas plants continue, raising alarms about ecosystem pressures. Experts urge a faster transition to renewable energy sources like solar and wind, which require less water. The ongoing climate crisis reveals the weaknesses of fossil fuel energy systems, as hydroelectric production also suffers across Europe due to reduced rainfall.
