How do plastics impact the Danube?

Dive into our booth, ‘Swimming Out of a River of Plastics’, to learn about the ICPDR's efforts to combat pollution. Our station showcases pollution inventories, interactive elements, and hands-on activities that will explain the journey of macroplastics to microplastics in our waters. We'll answer pressing questions like "Where does plastic in our rivers come from?", "How can we prevent plastic pollution?", "Can citizens contribute to cleaning our rivers from plastics? ", "How much of the plastic waste dumped into our rivers can actually be recycled?", "Is stopping plastic pollution in freshwater bodies achievable?" Join us to learn practical steps to reduce plastic pollution and help navigate our waters toward a cleaner, healthier, and safer future!
