🌊 In Romania, the outdated Răstolița hydropower plant project, planned over 30 years ago, is economically unviable and incompatible with modern environmental standards. ⚠️ It also poses a severe threat to the biodiverse Răstolița river, located at the foothills of Călimani National Park. If it were to go ahead, the project would destroy this unique ecosystem, which is home to the endangered Danube salmon. We urge the European Commission to investigate Romania’s non-compliance with the Habitats and Water Framework Directives. We demand an immediate intervention to prevent irreversible damage to this protected ecosystem.
