19th-century thinking vs 21st-century solutions.
Met River Watchers, het nieuwe project van VITO en River Cleanup, gebruiken we smartphonefoto’s en AI om vervuiling langs rivieroevers nauwkeurig in kaart te brengen.
Op #DayofActionForRivers tonen we hoe technologie én burgeractie elkaar versterken. 💧🌍

On this #DayofActionforRivers, International Rivers reveals a shocking stat:
🐟We've lost 83% of #freshwater species since 1970.
💧And 2023? The driest year for rivers in 30+ years, per
@WMO.
We stand with #datadriven initiatives and provide #opensource datasets on climate change.
Rivers are also a major source of plastic waste in the oceans. 1000 rivers are accountable for nearly 80% of global annual riverine plastic emissions, 0.8 – 2.7 million metric tons per year, with small urban rivers amongst the most polluting. #DayofActionforRivers
🌍💧Celebrating #DayOfActionForRivers 🌍💧
Water quality & health is a major environmental issue in South Africa. #Pollution from unmanaged waste & agriculture can leach into freshwater stream systems, meaning not all households have access to clean drinking water 💧 🧵
🏞️ On the #DayofActionforRivers, environmental groups and scientists call on international financial institutions to preserve key rivers and lakes of Central Asia and stop supporting destructive hydropower projects.
