Earth Day 2026: Our Power, Our Planet

Ręce trzymające kulę ziemską jako symbol odpowiedzialności za planetę i ochrony zasobów wodnych w kontekście suszy

April 22nd marks International Earth Day. It’s a day that annually prompts reflection on the condition of the natural environment. This year’s theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” resonates particularly strongly with one of today’s most serious challenges: the growing problem of drought and dwindling water resources. Access to water is no longer a given, and water itself is becoming a strategic asset whose availability requires conscious management. The theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” reminds us that we are all responsible for our planet and that ordinary, everyday actions can counteract climate change, including the effects of drought.

Summer Summary. Water Balance After the 2025 Summer Break – What Does the Data Say?

The summer of 2025 was a particularly contrasting period in Poland in terms of water balance. Although the water balance indicator itself is complex and takes into account both inflows (including atmospheric precipitation, surface and groundwater recharge) and losses (evaporation, plant transpiration, surface runoff), in practice its development depends primarily on precipitation and air temperature, which influences the intensity of evapotranspiration (including evaporation from soil surfaces and water bodies, as well as plant transpiration).

Work on the first update of the drought prevention plan is gaining momentum!

A survey on the issue of drought in Poland and actions to counteract its effects will begin soon. At the same time, preparations are already underway for the second nationwide conference “Stop the Drought! Start Retention!” State Water Holding – Polish Waters is counting on just as much interest as during the first conference! The full recording of the previous event has been published on YouTube (link), and answers to the most frequently asked questions from participants have been published here (link).
