Dear friends, Our mountain springs have suffered from climate change. We entered Spring without the real winter taking place. We know the effect of the thermal rise and the problem of scarce rainfall, which is increasingly small.
In Russia, except for rare days, thermometers have always recorded temperatures above 0. From expert meteorologists, the news that our water reserves have halved and that we are concretely risking a period of drought. In San Benedetto del Tronto, the CIIP (the company that manages the distribution of drinking water), following the activation of the "Red Code-2nd stage" alarm, due to the persistence of the state of water crisis, which affects our reserves, ordered the closing of public fountains. The fountains in via Premuda at the intersection with via Trieste and via Val di Chiana remain open, with the necessary limitations. Unfortunately agriculture will suffer from the exceptional nature of these weather phenomena, fruit trees are in fact already in bloom. |
