Because of the drought situation in the Balearics, environmental pressure group GOB is insisting that the regional government adopts measures, including the introduction of an emergency plan, to restrict water consumption by businesses in the tourism and leisure sectors. The group singles out golf courses, tourism properties (e.g. hotels), swimming pools and water parks as requiring restrictions on the use of water. If necessary, GOB argues, there should be "coercive measures" in order to guarantee general water supplies and to enable recovery of water reserves.
