Im neuen Politikpapier „EU-Wasserpolitik im Aufbruch“ empfiehlt der WBGU, die EU-Wasserresilienzstrategie zu ergänzen: Zentral ist klimaresilientes Wassermanagement, das auch im Boden gespeichertes „grünes“ Wasser berücksichtigt. Sinnvoll wäre zudem eine EU-Wasseraußenpolitik. www.wbgu.de/pp14
EU-Wasserpolitik im Aufbruch: Die EU-Wasserresilienzstrategie als Chance nutzen
Europa leidet immer häufiger unter Trockenheit und Überflutungen, auch weltweit spitzt sich die Situation vielerorts zu. Neue Strategien gegen die Wassernotlage sind deshalb dringend gefragt.

In its new policy paper on EU #water policy, the WBGU recommends taking up the EU water resilience strategy and supplementing it. Key is a #Climate-resilientWaterManagement that includes “green” water stored in the soil. An EU foreign policy on water would also be useful. www.wbgu.de/pp14_en

Heute ist der 22. März (Weltwassertag) und in fast ganz Deutschland sind die oberen Bodenschichten ausgetrocknet. Die Karten des UFZ Dürremonitors weisen sogar extreme Dürre in vielen Landesteilen aus. Das sollte man ernst nehmen. Anstatt über die Abschaffung des Umweltministeriums zu fabulieren.
This is scary full-on McCarthyism - I can't see that co-operating with such a survey could possibly be beneficial. I think the European advice of boycott better than the Australian 'co-operate'. Have any blue-skyers received such a survey? Would be good to share here www.nature.com/articles/d41...
