It is a lack of water that has been in place for more than 10 years, more and more sensitive in the center and the north of Chile.
Rural areas are the most affected, with recurring cuts and tank trucks supplying the villages.
Today, this reality also threatens large cities, such as the capital Santiago and its 8 million inhabitants.
If it does not rain enough this winter, several municipalities could be subject to rationing in the coming months.

In question, global warming but not only, ultraliberalism also and the system of acquisition of water rights.
