"Glaciers [...] are vital freshwater reserves that support ecosystems and communities" said 🇪🇺 Commissioner Roswall

On World Glaciers and Water Days, we say there can be no water resilience without the mountains!❌

Read our recommendations 👉 https://euromontana.org/there-can-be-no-water-resilient-europe-without-the-mountains-says-euromontana/

When glaciers melt, floods are only 1 problem - as they even cause:
💧water shortages
🦋biodiversity loss
🚧a disruption of the water cycle

With our upcoming EU Water Resilience Strategy we want to protect & restore freshwater ecosystems, build a water-smart economy
and enhance water-related technologies.
