☆ 'A war for water': Europe sounds the alarm on water stress ahead of another extreme summer
  + stars: | 2023-06-16 | by ( Sam Meredith | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
A view of the practically empty swamp that supplied water to Fuente obejuna village in Cordoba, Spain on May 19, 2023. European lawmakers issued a stark warning about the region's growing water crisis ahead of another extreme summer, saying there is a pressing need to tackle issues such as scarcity, food security and pollution. Speaking at a European Parliament plenary session entitled "The Water Crisis in Europe" on Thursday, lawmakers called for increased action to preserve and improve water resources, already affected by several years of depleting groundwater levels as the climate crisis continues to intensify. "Some regions are suffering from water scarcity due to the droughts, while others are suffering from floods. "Let us not be the continent that learns the value of water after the well has run dry."

REUTERS/Johanna GeronCERNOBBIO, Italy (Reuters) - Proposals to stop Russian companies from sending liquefied natural gas to European Union nations were welcomed by EU Energy Commissioner Kadri Simson on Saturday. “This is not a law yet...but this is now a very concrete step,” Simson told Reuters at a business event in northern Italy. EU countries agreed on Tuesday to seek a legal option to stop Russian companies sending liquefied natural gas to EU nations, by preventing Russian firms from booking infrastructure capacity. Simson also talked up a deal struck by the EU last month to cut final energy consumption across the bloc by 11.7% by 2030 as the bloc fights climate change and tries to wean itself off Russian energy supplies.
☆ Europe's gas price cap leaves some nations dismayed, saying it's far too high

Several EU member states are not happy with the bloc's proposed cap on natural gas prices — at 275 euros per megawatt hour — which aims to prevent sky-high costs for consumers. Introducing a cap on gas prices has been one of the more controversial measures for Europe amid an acute energy crisis following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. "So [a] price cap at 275 euro is not a price cap, nobody can, can stand buying gas at this expensive price for a long time. We surely believe that the price cap below 200 euro, between 150 and 200 euro would be more realistic," he added. EU energy ministers are due to meet Thursday to debate the price cap proposal.
