Sin humedales, los ríos llevan mas contaminantes. Eso se cumple en cualquier río del mundo.
Can nature help solve water pollution?
A new study suggests that wetland restoration in strategic locations could significantly reduce nitrogen flowing into European rivers and seas, and improve water quality across Europe.
Key insights:
🪸 Nitrogen pollution causes algal blooms, biodiversity loss and coastal dead zones.
🚱 Existing wetlands already remove over 1,000 kilotonnes of nitrogen every year.
📊 Without them, nitrogen loads in major river basins could be 20–38% higher.
