Activists and environmental experts in Hungary say the effects of climate change and insufficient infrastructure are colliding to threaten the country’s third largest natural lake with an economic and ecological crisis. Lake Velence has lost nearly half of its water in the last two years as hot, dry summers have led to increased evaporation and deteriorating water quality. (Photo by Laszlo Balogh/AP Photo)
