Theofilos Konstantinou:
Cyprus faces a growing water crisis 💧 Young people call for awareness campaigns, leak reduction & public access to water data.
Desalination helps, but urgent #EUBlueDeal action is needed to cut waste and manage scarcity.
Dr E. Koutsakos:
CY faces severe water crisis: rainfall could drop 30% by 2050, demand peaks in tourist season & around 40% of water is lost to leakages💧Fixing losses could equal 2 desalination plants.
Urgent #EUBlueDeal action, faster permits & treating water like energy are key.
