The water crisis continues: the problem of water availability, retention – big and small. A vision of a repeat of the poisoned Oder River scenario. Roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders in mitigating the water crisis: industry, local authorities, government. What about river regulation programmes and what about river renaturalisation? Economic use of rivers versus their natural and social functions. Information on the use of water resources, sustainable investments in water management and other water conservation measures: access to reliable data, the phenomenon of greenwashing, the role of education.
