What's the impact of the drought in the Rhine River? | Inside Story
Many countries are in the grips of intense summer heatwaves that are causing some of the world's crucial rivers to dry up.
In parts of Europe, waterways have dropped to near-record levels, halting marine traffic and disrupting factories and industries.
Now, Germany is facing a crisis as the Rhine River - its most important shipping route - becomes difficult for ships to navigate.
That's not only affecting freight supplies and costs, but its energy sector too.
So what will this mean for Europe's struggling largest economy?
Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom
Guests:
Ulrich Brueckner - Professor of Political Science at Stanford University in Berlin.
Nick Sitter - Professor of Public Policy at Central European University and BI Norwegian Business School.
Hubertus Bardt - Managing Director and Head of Research at the German Economic Institute.
