BARCELONA — Nature’s revenge: An abandoned canoe lies on the cracked ground at the Sau reservoir, which is only at 5 percent of its capacity, in Vilanova de Sau, about 100 km (62 miles) north of Barcelona, Spain, Friday, Jan. 26, 2024. The northeastern region of Catalonia is one of the two worst-hit regions in a two-year-plus drought affecting most of Spain. Reservoirs in the eastern coastal part of Catalonia are below 16% of their capacity, less than half the current national average, and the region is on the point of declaring a drought emergency and introducing more water restrictions for houses, farmers and industry.Photo: Emilio Morenatti/AP
