Rewilding the Rhine. Flood risk massively reduced. Local economy revitalized. When you restore a river, it returns the favor. Ecology and economy were never separate. We just pretended they were.

The visionary Gelderse Poort rewilding project at Nijmegen. A role model for river restoration. Thriving nature & millions of € saved in flood alleviation. Jobs too. In 2018 Nijmegen won European Green Capital status. Thanks to this success river rewilding now becoming more common across Europe.

Rewilding the Rhine: a new approach to flood control YouTube video by Bill Sutherland's Conservation Concepts

A pioneering rewilding site in Europe entailed transforming the river Rhine. The flood risk has been massively reduced saving billions of euros; the local economy has been revitalised. Delighted to film Wouter Helmer explaining how he created it. youtu.be/gr5YyyCHI4o?...

Good luck Mark. This course sounds great -and Skibbereen is wonderful.

Can't believe it's >4 months since last interacted with a #chalkstream! Today explored 3 parallel tributaries of the River Cam: TL is the lovely Hoffer Brook btw Harson & Foxton, rest are the rather pathetic Rhee, TR at Foxton & below at Fowlmere - little more than a ditch. #MyWalk #Rivers 🧵1/10

This is astonishing and powerful.

Thanks. Hope you find it useful.

Delighted by the Aquatic Vegetation Synopsis just published. This summerises the evidence of effectiveness of 206 actions. Amazing work by Nigel Taylor, Vanessa Cutts & Rebecca K. Smith

This is such an excellent book full of great tips. Should be used widely.

Thank Tim. Absolutely. Was good fun to do apart from him wearing his pinny (he kindly provided lunch) for the thumbnail photo and when I asked ChatGPT to remove it was accused of inappropriate requests.
