European firms paid millions by illegal Myanmar junta for disastrous dam projects | Justice For Myanmar

Two European engineering firms earned millions advising the brutal Myanmar military junta on the construction of socially and environmentally destructive dam projects after the Myanmar military’s illegal attempted coup two years ago.

Podnebne spremembe močno vplivajo na reke:

💧Zmanjšana gladina vode zaradi suše.
⛈Poškodovani rečni bregovi zaradi poplav in neviht.
🐟Ogrožene divje živali.

[Les RDV Rivières] démarrent le 14 mars, à l'occasion de la journée internationale d'actions pour les #rivières.

Premier RDV Rivières sur l'#Yzeron: une 50aine d'ouvrages traités et résultats de la restauration sur la #biodiversité visibles grâce au suivi génétique https://professionnels.ofb.fr/fr/node/1422

Une cinquantaine d’effacements et installations de dispositifs de franchissement sur le bassin versant de l’Yzeron

Une cinquantaine d’ouvrages ont été supprimés ou aménagés d’un dispositif de franchissement piscicole sur la rivière Yzeron, et ses affluents. Ces travaux de restauration ont permis de rétablir la circulation piscicole et notamment l’accès à des zones de reproduction et à deux zones de refuge du bassin versant où l’eau est fraîche et plus abondantes durant les étés : l’Yzeron amont et le ruisseau du Ratier. Les résultats du suivi génétique ont mis en évidence des mouvements migratoires entre les sites décloisonnés notamment sur le cours principal de l’Yzeron, le ruisseau de Charbonnières, le Ratier et la Milonière. Avant travaux, les populations de truites étaient isolées avec un taux important de consanguinité et donc une faible diversité génétique. Les pêcheurs qui étaient initialement réticents aux dérasements de seuils ont très rapidement été conquis par le projet au regard des résultats positifs des pêches électriques tant sur les aspects quantitatifs que qualitatifs.

Free-flowing rivers: Commission advises how to select sites and finance removal of obsolete barriers

The Commission has developed guidance to assist EU Member States in identifying and prioritising barriers that could be removed to help achieve the Biodiversity Strategy’s goal of restoring 25 000 km of rivers to be free-flowing, and in identifying possible funding sources.

Ongoing construction of megadams physically threatening communities and the environment continues to unfold and warrants govt and public attention. Adding this voice on the International Day of Rivers and Against Large Dams:
