'Water Matters: The Fading Continent's Fight for Clean Water'

The European continent is facing a pressing crisis as pollution, droughts, and floods put its precious water resources under constant strain. The consequences are dire, as drinking water, lakes, rivers, and coastlines all suffer from the growing threat to their ecosystems.

In an exclusive series of video reports from Euronews, our investigation delves into the root causes of this crisis and highlights innovative solutions for better wastewater management. The alarming rates of pollution have taken a heavy toll on Europe's environment, resulting in hazardous condition for its inhabitants.

"We're losing control," admitted Maria Rodriguez, an environmental scientist from Spain. "It seems that we have to start treating waste as a priority over clean drinking water and public spaces that are safe and accessible."

But there is hope in this crisis. Euronews has partnered with leading European experts to develop cutting-edge tools that will aid the recovery of rivers and lakes.

"Each one of us may do an incredibly small thing," explained Thomas Neuschner, a freshwater scientist from Germany. "The next simple step we can take would be to check whether it's clean as we are filling up our car tanks or water bottles."

Additionally, Euronews has joined forces with the European Union and UNESCO to collaborate on an animated series providing valuable information about global climate change through the European water supply system.

For this special in-depth debate segment, experts will discuss their thoughts on sustainability measures like "Blue Economy," carbon-free water treatment facilities and advanced water management techniques to restore a healthy environment for Europe's citizens.
