2. Is concerned that the balance between the need for water and available resources has reached a critical level in many regions of Europe and that climate change could make the situation even worse; water scarcity and drought now affect the whole territory of some Member States on a permanent basis; emphasizes that climate change and the subsequent changing weather conditions significantly affect the quality and availability of European water resources, that Europe’s high water stress areas are expected to increase from 19 % today to 35 % by the 2070s and that climate related extreme weather events constitute further challenges to eff ...[+++]icient water management;

O. whereas climate change is expected to result in a number of potential health impacts through increased frequency of extreme weather events, such as heat waves and floods, through changing patterns of infectious disease, and via increased exposure to ultraviolet radiation; whereas not all EU countries are equally prepared to address these challenges,

‘exceptional event’ means circumstances under which ATM capacity is abnormally reduced so that the level of ATFM delays is abnormally high as a result of: a planned limitation induced through operational or technical change, major adverse weather circumstances, the unavailability of large airspace parts either through natural or political reasons, or industrial action and the activation of the EACCC by the Network Manager as a result of one or more of these causes.

Reduction of negative effects from extreme weather events on agricultural production potential

A major meteorological factor are the winds that travel south from the Upper Valsugana, creating in the production area a microclimate characterised by low residual humidity, a lower incidence of fog, and fairly stable soil temperatures.

12. Interprets the recent extreme weather conditions as further evidence of the negative effects of climate change and stresses that these extreme weather conditions are another sign of the need for ambitious world action to halt climate change;
