The Secretary of State stressed on the other hand, that in the stand of the Ministry of Environment, visitors will find interactive activities to promote environmental education and care of natural resources.
The Ortuño minister said that everything that has to do with water must be a priority, and also must be a state policy that guarantees the supply of drinking water and water for production, with the aim of increasing productivity and preventing in a context of climate change, the impact of droughts that have a cost not only for producers, but also have an important cost for the country and require short -term infrastructure works.
