At the same time, private gardens were no longer allowed to be watered, nor were cars allowed to be washed. While the French Golf Federation argued that over 15,000 people work on French golf courses and that the greens will break down without water, various politicians opposed the exemption for golf courses. Eric Piolle, mayor of the city of Grenoble, said, &#8220;We continue to protect the rich and powerful.&#8221; Only one region, Ille-et-Villaine in western France, completely banned watering of golf courses.<\/p>\n<p>In France, rainfall dropped 85 percent this summer. A state of emergency was declared for two-thirds of the country. Parts of the Loire River were almost completely dry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Portugal-Algarve<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the Algarve, water conservation is now becoming a hot topic in tourism: after Portuguese Environment Minister Duarte Cordeiro imposed an irrigation freeze on golf courses in the Algarve at the end of July as all of Portugal suffers from the worst drought in a century, hotels and golf course operators are rapidly starting to think about changes in water consumption. The Algarve Tourism Board (RTA) developed a list for resorts that identified a whole range of measures. However, these largely affect hotels, which do not appear to be as advanced as golf courses in terms of water management, according to Joao Fernandes, Head of the Algarve Tourist Board. The Algarve&#8217;s &#8220;Water Efficiency Plan&#8221; has applied to golf courses since 2020. The use of industrial water is to be doubled here by the end of 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Although there should be no real water restrictions for tourists, towels should now be in use for at least two days, water features in outdoor areas should be turned off, and watering of outdoor areas should be greatly reduced or stopped. Pool water replacement should also be far less frequent. In addition, outdoor areas such as parking lots will no longer be cleaned with the help of water in the future.<\/p>\n<div
