Removing dams, restoring rivers: Proven solution to build resilience and reverse nature loss

Healthy rivers are critical to global efforts to tackle the climate and nature crises. But across Europe, rivers are choked with tens of thousands of dams and barriers, many of them obsolete, which disrupt the natural flow of water, sediments and species - undermining river resilience and driving nature loss. This short film showcases the impact of dam removals - a fast, proven, and cost-effective solution - and the growth of the dam removal movement in Europe, inspired by WWF and partners. Over 5000 barriers - from giant hydropower dams to weirs - have been removed helping to build resilience and bring life back to dying rivers - from Finland to France, UK to Ukraine. But we urgently need to scale up dam removals to restore rivers and help societies adapt to climate change, and reverse the loss of freshwater species populations - which have plunged by 83% on average since 1970. This video shows how it can be done - highlighting the benefits of dam removals to people and nature, and the growing collaboration between governments, companies, NGOs and communities.
