Water shortages could force evacuation of Iranian capital

This edition of the Global News Podcast from the BBC World Service covers several developing global stories. First, it discusses the water crisis in Tehran, Iran, where water supplies are being restricted and evacuation is a possibility due to drought and mismanagement. Next, it reports on Bolivia's new president, Rodrigo Paz, and the restoration of diplomatic relations with the United States. Then, the podcast shifts to Saudi Arabia's ambitious tourism plans and efforts to diversify its economy. Further segments include a report on a new elephant sanctuary in Portugal, the impact of Typhoon Fung Wong in the Philippines, and a British twins' experiment to test the feasibility of George Mallory's Everest climb in 1924 using replica gear. Finally, the podcast touches on an amateur golfer's unlikely streak of holes-in-one and the discovery of a Lewis Carroll dinner invitation that may have inspired the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
