💧 What record-low water levels at the Hoover Dam reservoir look like from space
The US’ largest water reservoir, Lake Mead at the Hoover Dam, is in very, very bad shape. How bad is it? New satellite images from NASA show just how much the reservoir’s footprint has shrunk over the past two decades — and the difference between July 2000 and July 2022 is stark.
Water levels at Lake Mead are at a historic low — the reservoir hasn’t been this empty since 1937 when it was being filled for the first time. It’s currently at just 27% capacity. The dam typically provides power to 1.3 million people in Nevada, Arizona and California.
Last year, officials declared a water shortage there, marking the first time such a declaration had ever been made along the Colorado River system.

🛢 Russian oil exports to Europe are being replaced by crude from the Middle East
Europe has imported more than 1 million barrels per day via the SuMed pipeline in the first three weeks of July, nearly double from a year ago. The volumes in the pipeline, which transits through Egypt, are mostly Saudi oil but also include Iraqi crude.
In addition, ships carrying another 1.2 million barrels a day from the Persian Gulf, mostly from Iraq, have gone through the Suez Canal to Europe. That means oil deliveries via pipeline and ship from the Middle East to Europe total 2.2 million barrels a day, up nearly 90% since January.
And as Saudi Arabia diverts more of its crude oil exports to Europe, it is sending less to top customers in Asia. In fact, China's imports of Saudi crude in June were down 30% compared to year-ago levels.
