Water Framework Directive aims to solve or at least address key issues:
The 7 key facts addressed by the WFD are:
- Europe’s water is under pressure
- EU action is necessary because river basins and pollution cross borders. The river basin approach is the best way to manage water
- Waters must achieve good ecological and chemical status, to protect human health, water supply, natural ecosystems and biodiversity
- It is crucial to get people involved
- Some progress already, but more to be done
- Water management is linked to many policies: integration is the only way forward for sustainable water
- A changing environment creates challenges for the future, including climate change, floods and drought
