Europe's rivers are running dry and the consequences are severe

Europe's major rivers are drying up, and the consequences reach from nuclear power plants to dead fish in French wetlands.

Hungary sinks barges in the Danube to keep its Paks nuclear plant running. Germany's Rhine struggles to carry commercial cargo.

Italy's Po fills with vegetation as currents weaken. In France, 200 hectares of peat bogs are nearly bone dry and fish are dying from oxygen loss.

Forecasters warn conditions will not improve soon.
