VATICAN CITY- 26 JULY 2017: The Vatican decided to cut the water in this 17th century fountain by Gian Lorenzo Bernini in St. Peter's Square in Vatican City on July 26th 2017.

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
