> It's a crisis measured in hard numbers: reservoir levels, rainfall data, aquifer depletion rates.

Of course I went to check the actual numbers from official sources and they tell a different story. Reservoir levels near historical maximum. So much for building an article on "hard numbers" without pointing to sources.

For cypress its half as much water in the reseviours compared to last year: https://www.moa.gov.cy/moa/wdd/Wdd.nsf/page18_en/page18_en?o...

what data are you looking at?

Italy, Spain... eg. https://embalses.net shows maximum historical levels after a sharp bump these past 2 years... pretty sure it's the same story in many EU countries. Droughts are there until they aren't. Normal fluctuations if you check an actual chart going 50-100 years back.

Can you post a historical chart of Cyprus? maybe it tells a different story

Maybe that Sabine lady with the Youtube channel that people seem to take seriously because she has a funny German accent?

And you thought you’d refute it by also not providing sources?

Can you? can you provide a historical (25+ years) chart of reservoir levels in Cyprus or any EU country? Otherwise let me assume you just fell for a sensationalist article
