In the whole Germany?

I ask this simple question simply because, in my region of France ( 
Normandy ) we often laugh when news speaks about water shortage or 
temperature being "damn super hot this year".
But on the other hand, France is a country where each region have very 
different conditions. Here, a forest fire is just something that I can 
not imagine. In the south of France, there are very destructive ones 
each year. Less water, higher temperatures, winds coming from south not 
charged with humidity, etc, I guess.

But I would not bet that if I have never seen a real water shortage 
here, it is because we consume less water than south's guys. And if, in 
a single country, I can see such differences, how could you compare 
different countries without, probably, knowing them well?

About the oil, in France, we now have 2 polities: 1 we have specialized 
places where we go to put our bigger trash, and 2 there is some sorting 
of the trash in houses. Oil can be put in the specialized places ( which 
are paid from taxes, but there are still people stupid enough to throw 
their junk outside their car when the drive, instead of putting them in 
a bin. Humpf... ).
