Recently, the water level of the Rhine River in Germany fell to its lowest level in about 150 years. A general station reporter saw at an important shipping water level monitoring site in the lower reaches of the Rhine River that the depth of waterways that cargo ships can use has been reduced as a result, and incoming and outgoing cargo ships have had to drastically reduce loading, putting pressure on German companies that rely on the Rhine to transport raw materials and products. The Rhine connects the North Sea port to the industrial region of western Germany, and is Germany's most important inland waterway freight channel. There are a large number of steel, chemical, and energy companies along the coast, and every year a large amount of bulk goods such as energy, chemical raw materials, and manufactured products are transported through here. On the one hand, the water level is too low, reducing the transportation capacity of the Rhine, and on the other hand, it has also greatly increased the logistics costs of coastal industrial enterprises.
