The Verdict: you can’t build a global logistics chain on rivers that disappear in droughts. Investing in old-fashioned infrastructure like #E40 is a trap. It’s time to invest in natural infrastructure—restoring wetlands is the only viable strategy for a drying continent. 🌱🛑

#InternationalDayofCleanAir reminder: wetlands are natural air filters.
They:
-Capture fine dust on plant surfaces
-Prevent soil erosion & dust storms
-Lock in pollutants that would otherwise become airborne when drained
Protecting wetlands = protecting clean air.

Polesia's rivers, wetlands & forests form a living network for migrating birds, spawning fish & roaming mammals like Lynx & Wolf.
The #E40Waterway would sever this network.
