The Balkans, also known as the “Blue Heart” of Europe for its exquisite river, dense forest, and wildlife, including soft mouth trouts, found only in a few rivers, face a constant threat from the hydropower system. According to a Bosnian NGO, 50 additional dam plans are proposed along the 140-mile-long river, posing a significant danger to the region's biodiversity. Ulrich Eichelmann, the Campaign Coordinator, together with 50 scientists converged on its bank to gather data on the rivers to advocate for its preservation. Eichelmann emphasizes the destructive impact of dams, affecting both upstream and downstream areas. While acknowledging hydropower as a primary alternative to fossil fuels, the organization aims to strike a balance between remnant conservation efforts and implementation of the hydropower systems.
