Drought: Marnati; finished water reserves, save every liter

(ANSA) – TURIN, JULY 26 – “We have to save every liter of drinking water available, because the reserves are over.

The water that is falling today on the hydroelectric basins is glacial water, that is, it is unfortunately due to the melting of the glaciers due to the rising of the freezing point, so it is not good news: water is arriving, but we are losing our reserves “.

Thus the Councilor for the Environment of Piedmont, Matteo Marnati, on the water situation of the regional territory.

“We are one of the most virtuous companies on a national level – Marnati underlined – but we have the duty to reduce the dispersion, on the average 33%, which is still too high. 60%, the more we go down to the plains and the more we get even below 20%. The important thing is to replace the pipes where the aqueducts are over 50 years old “. “The Vco – he explained – is the province that at this moment has the most critical issues and the greatest need for tankers: for this we will ask for a further allocation of funds within the State of emergency, because costs are increasing. The Alessandria area is also in strong difficulty, the Turin in the average, the Cuneo quite good, the Asti has the best performances “. (HANDLE).
