More than two billion people in the world do not have secure access to clean water. And since climate change is heating up the planet unchecked, drinking water could also become scarce in Europe in the near future. “In the last 20 years, the groundwater level [in Deutschland] greatly decreased”, says Carolin Stüdemann, CEO of Viva con Agua, an organization dedicated to providing access to clean drinking water around the world. In some regions in Germany, wells are already dry, she says on World Water Day “important today”. In addition to climate change, sealing of the soil and increasing water consumption by industry would also lead to possible water shortages. Each individual must therefore be aware of their water consumption – and that also means paying attention to how much water is behind each purchased food.

[…] There are currently no buses in Ukraine, so I said to my relatives: We have to go now, at least as long as the trains are still running.” In the 237th episode of the morning podcast, Dimitri Blinski talks about the long journey they have taken and what else they have left behind.
