The summer heatwave and the thousands of deaths it caused confirmed one thing in Europe and the developing countries, something of which the 30 000 people who die each day of illness linked to a lack of drinking water remind us: water is the most crucial problem threatening humanity.
Climate change will make this situation worse. It is therefore urgently necessary that mass action plans are drawn up, targeted and financed.
Mr Lannoye and the Committee on Development and Cooperation have given us some minimal proposals, which we must quickly implement.
