In this video we interview Queralt Plana Puig, a researcher at Eurecat. We explore the impact of climate change on Catalonia, focusing on critical issues such as rising temperatures, increasing sea levels, and worsening water scarcity. Catalonia is currently facing its longest drought in 50 years, leading to severe water restrictions and the urgent need to rethink water management systems. We delve into how the IMPETUS Project is working to address these challenges by implementing innovative solutions, such as decentralized wetland systems at the Ebro Delta, to minimize water pollution and improve water quality.

The discussion also touches on the broader environmental challenges Catalonia faces, including the loss of biodiversity and the effects of tourism on coastal regions. Learn how these solutions are not only vital for Catalonia but could be adapted for similar regions worldwide, helping to protect both the environment and local communities.
