Student: IES Carles Vallbona

My name is Marina and I am 18 years old. I am from Spain, and I live in Barcelona.

Ever since I was little, I have loved biology, especially marine biology. I like to go scuba diving and investigate the animals living in the sea.

Also, I like reading and listening to music, and I love doing sports, especially swimming.

Tell us what the water concern in your country is!

Spain is one of the most water-stressed industrialized countries in the world. According to the World Bank, the country faces the challenge of ensuring long-term water security. Therefore, in 2023, Spain experienced its worst drought in almost a century.

This is what I think is one of the solutions for a sustainable future:

In my opinion, one of the solutions for a sustainable future may be to use less plastic materials and use more renewable ones instead. Therefore, water contamination means that we can’t consume this water in agriculture or domestically.
