Nafpaktos is situated in Western Greece, one of the rainiest regions of the country, with parts receiving significantly more rainfall than the national average of 652 mm per year. Despite this natural advantage, the area faces increasing pressure on its water resources. The majority of water usage (around 74%) is consumed by agriculture, particularly for water-intensive crops. While mountain lakes and reservoirs like Evinos help manage supply, they are increasingly under stress due to reduced rainfall and rising demand.

Challenges such as frequent droughts, over-extraction of groundwater by farmers, and climate change are pushing the region toward water scarcity. Added to this is the seasonal spike in tourism, which further increases domestic water consumption during the driest months. It is essential to raise awareness about responsible water use and adopt sustainable practices to ensure long-term availability.

To protect this precious resource, we can all contribute. Farmers can adopt efficient irrigation methods like drip systems, households and municipalities can fix leaks and promote water-saving habits, and communities can encourage planting of native vegetation that requires less water. By using water wisely in both agriculture and daily life, we help secure a healthier future for people and the environment we depend on.
