Swimways on screen: Our Swimways of European Importance
With migratory fish struggling in Europe, the 75% decline in freshwater migratory fish populations calls for critical measures to turn the tide. Among these is the creation of our Trans European Swimways Program and, within this, the identification of Swimways of European Importance (SEIs). To show this amazing program, we created a new and vivid video that showcases the efforts we can take together to save Europe's migratory fishes. The video swiftly explains our program and the importance of migratory fish for policy, people and nature.

Do you know about natural sponges?
มุมมอง 518 หลายเดือนก่อน
Natural Sponges are temporary or permanent wetlands, such as floodplains, marshes, bogs, fens and peatlands that are planetary superheroes. These are landscapes that absorb, retain and slowly release water - as if they were a sponge in your home. By storing water these natural areas help make us safer in a changing climate with more frequent extreme weather.
