Latest country profiles
Denmark
A groundwater-based, highly decentralised water system where low national stress masks over-abstraction on Zealand, pesticide and PFAS contamination, rising utility debt and growing cloudburst exposure.
First published →EuropeNetherlands
A low-lying delta that receives 88% of its renewable water from upstream rivers, now managing drought, pollution and drinking-water capacity pressures alongside its long-standing flood-defence task.
