El segundo embalse m\u00e1s grande de\u00a0Estados Unidos<\/strong>, el\u00a0lago Powell<\/strong>, se est\u00e1 secando. As\u00ed lo muestran unas im\u00e1genes por sat\u00e9lite, difundidas desde la NASA, en las que se puede observar una clara reducci\u00f3n en el caudal del lago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n La presa del Ca\u00f1\u00f3n de Glen se inaugur\u00f3 en 1963 y tard\u00f3 16 a\u00f1os en llenarse con las aguas del r\u00edo Colorado. Ahora, sin embargo, tras tres a\u00f1os de sequ\u00eda extrema y m\u00e1s de dos d\u00e9cadas de escasez de lluvia, sus aguas agonizantes<\/a> est\u00e1n en el nivel m\u00e1s bajo desde que se construy\u00f3 (apenas un 26% de su capacidad). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Se trata de una zona emblem\u00e1tica, no s\u00f3lo por su peculiaridad orogr\u00e1fica, sino por ser una gran atracci\u00f3n tur\u00edstica al formar parte de la cuenca del Colorado. Adem\u00e1s, en el lago Powell\u00a0se rod\u00f3 parte de\u00a0El planeta de los simios<\/em><\/strong>. En concreto, el embalse es la localizaci\u00f3n donde llega la nave espacial con los astronautas que han viajado en el tiempo y creen estar en otro planeta. En la zona se filmaron buena parte de las secuencias de exteriores de la pel\u00edcula.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ahora preocupa que la escasez de agua sobrepase la l\u00ednea roja en la que deja de ser viable la generaci\u00f3n hidroel\u00e9ctrica y el consumo cotidiano, o que directamente llegue a desaparecer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n La situaci\u00f3n no mejora si se desciende el r\u00edo y se llega a la otra gran masa acu\u00e1tica del Colorado, el lago Mead<\/strong>. Pues est\u00e1 solo al 28% de su capacidad<\/a>, con datos del pasado 22 de agosto. As\u00ed, toda la zona suroeste de EEUU est\u00e1 sufriendo una sequ\u00eda sin precedentes. Una situaci\u00f3n similar a la que ha vivido Europa este verano<\/a>, donde el descenso del nivel del agua ha dado lugar a nuevos yacimientos tur\u00edsticos al dejar al descubierto pueblos y ruinas antes inundadas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Para poner freno a esta situaci\u00f3n cada vez m\u00e1s dram\u00e1tica, la\u00a0Oficina Federal de Recuperaci\u00f3n<\/strong>\u00a0ha anunciado restricciones en el volumen de agua destinada a Arizona, Nevada y M\u00e9xico, en la cuenca baja del r\u00edo. Los recortes entrar\u00e1n en vigor en 2023 y suponen reducciones de hasta un 21% menos de agua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fuente:
