Closure of coal mine will aggravate water scarcity in Berlin

Berlin has a drinking water system that relies entirely on groundwater. In the past the area had plenty of groundwater, but now the vital resource is under increasing pressure due to climate change and the planned closure of a coal mine that feeds the Spree River. The city is preparing for water scarcity with a ‘Masterplan Water’, supported by the European project IMPETUS.
