This is an 11% increase compared to the 487 taken out in 2023. This reveals a new report by Dam Removal Europe. Last year, Finland led the way with 138 structures removed. Barrier removal is one of the key solutions for river restoration. This is also one of the objectives of the European Union\u2019s Nature Restoration Regulation, that came into force in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>The significance of river connectivity and barrier removal has been recognized in the EU Nature Restoration Regulation. This Regulation sets legally binding targets to revive nature, combat biodiversity loss, and enhance climate resilience. Each EU Member State must submit a draft National Restoration Plan by mid-2026, outlining how they will meet the Regulation\u2019s targets, including those for freshwater ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most significant case studies comes from northern France. Last year, a first study on the effects of the removal of dams in the S\u00e9lune river in northern France pointed out it was a success for nature. Dam Removal Europe (DRE) is a movement of river enthusiasts, volunteers, activists, river practitioners, biologists and environmental agencies working on river restoration.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.waternewseurope.com\/europe-sees-rise-in-dam-removals\/\">Water News Europe<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-719\/\">Europe sees rise in dam removals<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22,1],"tags":[6499,18983,575,696,655],"class_list":["post-140350","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-yleinen","tag-dam","tag-dre","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-europe","tag-yleinen"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140350","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140350"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140350\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140350"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140350"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140350"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
