Authorities in Stockholm are urging residents to save water due to record high temperatures and dwindling drinking water supplies.

This summer's high temperatures have affected the supply of drinking water in Stockholm, forcing authorities to urge people to reduce their water consumption. Lake Malaren, the main source of water for two million people, has experienced abnormal temperatures, leading to a drop in water production. Experts warn that climate change is contributing to the increase, and July was the hottest month in 100 years in Sweden. Other Nordic countries, such as Norway and Finland, are also facing problems with water supplies due to extreme heat.
