lpv:translated text	"The problems of dwindling drinking water resources and expanding deserts, which were more likely in the past to be issues affecting Africa and Asia, are now also encountered in Europe. In southern Spain, the desert is extending by one kilometre every year. Oltenia in Romania is exposed to a similar process, but it is progressing at a slower rate, while drinking water resources in other regions of the world have become grounds for conflict between states. Protecting water resources, especially drinking water, must be tackled from a global perspective, taking into account all the ecosystem services supported by water. It is important that pollution is controlled at source, in order to prevent hazardous substances from entering the environment and reduce the strain placed on wastewater treatment. In view of the abovementioned problems, I think that the sustainable use of water is as much an economic as an environmental necessity, which would require more transparent water pricing schemes."@en1
