ANGUILLARA SABAZIA (LAKE BRACCIANO), ITALY - 26 JULY 2017: An ACEA technician (the Roman city water utility) measured the water level by Lake Bracciano, whose level has dropped more than 1,50 meters recently, in Anguillara Sabazia (Lake Bracciano), Italy, on July 26th 2017.

Lake Bracciano provides eight percent of Rome's water and has sunk about 1.5 meters

A severe drought and sweltering temperatures have led Rome city officials to consider a potential rationing of drinking water for eight hours a day for a million and a half Rome residents. The water crisis has become yet another sign of man being at the mercy of an increasingly extreme climate, but also of once mighty Rome’s political impotence, managerial ineptitude and overall decline.Lake Bracciano provides eight percent of Rome's water and has sunk about 1.5 meters
