Spain is thirsty
The reservoirs are 10 points below the average for the decade
The country's dams are at 59% of their capacity, with minimum values in the Júcar and Segura basins.
How is this technology helping arid regions?
Since its first tests in California, this technique has spread across the globe.
After the success obtained during the drought of 2015 in California, other points of the planet are adopting this technique to avoid evaporation and the appearance of harmful algae in reservoirs.
Covering California's reservoirs was a hit.
How it mitigated the 2015 drought
The state of California experienced one of the worst droughts in its history during the year 2015. The solution that scientists came up with to protect the reservoirs that supply Los Angeles with water was to cover them with millions of black plastic balls. The idea was a success.
