Clear water
Introduction
Have you ever wondered how much drinking water is used on an average summer day? In most of Europe, we take for granted that we only need to turn on the tap and have access to clear drinking water 24 hours a day. We wash, cook, clear up, and then dirty water is discharged into the sewer.
Climate change, urbanisation and the transformation of river basins are having a significant impact on available water resources.
Let’s rethink drinking water management!
