Quello che si vede in foto è circa un terzo del letto del fiume Sesia, la restante parte è pressoché asciutta tranne qualche pozza d'acqua qua e là. Tale situazione, com'è intuibile, non va per niente bene, da un fiume di grande portata si è ridotto, nel corso soprattutto dell'ultimo decennio, ad un fiume di regime e carattere torrentizio o poco più e ciò la dice lunga sugli effetti del cambiamento climatico. Nel periodo estivo la situazione è ancora peggiore, perché lo scioglimento delle nevi dal bacino imbrifero della Val Sesia, da cui il fiume trae origine e nome, non assiste più la sua portata come un tempo, dato che le precipitazioni nevose e i ghiacciai del Monte Rosa, dove sono le sue sorgenti, sono in netto calo e regresso. L'unica cosa di positivo è che il basso livello dell'acqua ha fatto affiorare i resti di un antico ponte romano più a valle dal punto ritratto in foto (presso l'abitato di Mantie, nel Comune di Motta de' Conti): dal dopoguerra è capitato pochissime volte e chi raccontava di averli visti non veniva creduto, adesso sono lì da vedere senza alcun problema, in quasi qualsiasi periodo dell'anno, ahimè.

I have read the dramatic situation, unfortunately the problem upstream is the change in the climate and consequently almost non-existent glaciers and snow in small quantities, downstream exploitation of water for agriculture and livelihoods of cities does the rest.

yes, we really need to worry.
Posed under the link of a photo of Monte Rosa from where you can see the glaciers that feed the Sesia: thirty years ago their extent was about twice as large if not as an extension at least as volume.
For which, the situation is really worrying, just think that here in Piedmont it has been about two months that does not rain.
Aeo.
