Short description: |
The impact of climate change on Europe's water resources is a
critical issue for people’s lives and the economy. Even if emissions
of greenhouse gases were stabilised today, increases in temperature
and the associated impacts, including water availability and flooding,
will continue for many decades to come. Countries are aware of these
impacts and have started to adapt to them but there is still much to do.
