UK government declares drought in some areas
イギリス政府は熱波や降水量が記録的に少ないことからイングランド地方の一部地域で4年ぶりに「干ばつ」を宣言しました
The British government has declared a ``drought’’ for the first time in four years in parts of England due to record heat waves and low rainfall.
There are concerns about the impact on people’s lives and agriculture
On the 12th, the UK’s Environment Agency issued a ”drought declaration” for the first time in four years since 2018 in some areas of England, such as the south and north of London.
In the UK, record heat exceeding 30 degrees continues for days in various places, and the rainfall in July is the lowest in 87 years, and water shortages are serious.
With the ”drought declaration” issued, there is a possibility that a ”hose pipe ban” will be introduced to limit the use of water outdoors, such as watering gardens and washing cars.
