The removal of river barriers in the EU is the #EnvironmentalPerson of the Week on Sustainable Planet.

The removal of obsolete river barriers in the European Union is the #EnvironmentalPerson of the Week in our weekly Sustainable Planet newsletter . In 2023, 542 obsolete river barriers were removed in 23 countries, resulting in 2,900 km of reconnected rivers, increased biodiversity, and greater resilience to climate change.

The #GoodEnvironmentalNews takes us to Andalusia , where specimens of "Nomeves" were found, a very rare plant that had been considered extinct for 42 years.

We also address the renaturalization of cities in " Beyond Central Park: The Urban Green Revolution in New York." Gardens, parks, and trees to improve health and quality of life in the Big Apple.
