Very interesting. I wonder whether the sinking ground water levels could be stabilized in the coming years by the increasing vegetation being able to hold and absorb more water in the landscape. I believe river ecosystems to be very very valuable and maybe some other adaption measures in the surrounding landscapes could help reduce the need for this reservoir. I personally do not think that nuclear should be invested in as a path for the future although it is probably sensible that existing plants should be kept running. My dream for Ukraine would be that it is helped by Europe to rebuilt in a resilient future proof way taking into account all the possible risks be it in conjunction of the climate/biodiversity crisis as well as geopolitical ones. If it is absolutely needed to be able to feed Ukraine and to get it back on its feet this should be a priority but it is so very important to not built back in the conventional way.
