European Commission presents Water Resilience strategy

The European Commission is asking all Member States to reduce their water use by ten per cent by 2030. These water saving objectives are part of the Water Resilience Strategy that was presented today by European commissioner Jessika Roswall. “Member States can choose how to achieve this reduction. For example, by preventing leakage or scaling up water reuse. It is important to create awareness with this strategy. This is the beginning of a journey.”, said Roswall during a press meeting prior to the presentation.

  1. Whilst this is seen as a panacea in many areas it is generally irrelevant. If abstracted water is treated to a high standard and returned to the environment then its effect is virtually zero. Likewise, in inland areas, leakage just returns to the local aquifer where it remains part of the resource which is available for subsequent abstraction. It's more important to treat potable water to the highest standard thus reducing the need for bottled water and hence plastic which damages the environment.

  2. The major shift should be to stop using bottle water and stop producing plastic bottles, may it not be possible but AHD has done in rural and urban communities and hope all will fallow to adopt AHD Nadi filter and help people with solution of safe drinking water and save them from Cholera, Gastro and Diarrhea and Chlorine and many more chemicals. see www.ahdpak.org 

  4. We believe that: wanting is being able. Achieving this goal requires education, media, seminars and conferences, using new ideas from experts in the field of water, optimization and modeling, etc. We have plans for some of these areas to respond to climate change and reduce water stress. I hope the European Commission will accompany and follow us.
