Greece is taking significant steps to combat drought. They plan to merge hundreds of water companies to improve the management of water resources.

Existing water companies in Athens and Thessaloniki will expand to tackle water scarcity. The government will create a new fund to invest in dams and desalination plants.

As Greece faces a heatwave, it is crucial to remember that Europe is the fastest warming continent. This situation threatens agriculture and tourism sectors.

There are currently 1,327 water projects requiring over 5 billion euros in investment. The government plans to attract managers from the private sector to make water management projects more efficient.

Drought and erosion are significant issues not only for Greece but for the entire Mediterranean region. Therefore, it is essential to highlight these issues and seek solutions.
