There is another solution you should be able to implement easily. You said the water had warmed up significantly. Plant trees to shade the water. Quick growing pioneer species like willow and birch for the short term and beech oak ash and pine for the long term. Of course plant on the south bank where the river runs east or west, and on both banks where the river runs north or south. It is quite likely that the water temperature had risen because of deforestation along a large section of the river. Rivers and streams are healthier when they are shaded by trees. And there is the benefit that trees make the banks less prone to erosion.
While the political gridlock is super frustrating... It's encouraging to see impactful solutions and things that can be done outside of politics. Keep it up!
It is very frustrating indeed! With Planet Wild we chose to focus on those areas where we have the power to act rather than those where we are powerless. 💪
@@austinedeclan10 That's not true. It's just that there are many different problems to solve and the solutions for one problem become the cause of another. Not to mention that the people the politicians and governments represent all want different things. Most people simply won't tolerate putting nature over the economy, no matter how many species are at risk. Why spend taxes on fish and plants when there are orphans that need homes and sick people who need medicine? You can only spend money once, and it's hard to justify spending on something like rewilding when there is an infinite number of humans crying for their needs to be met first.
I didn't expect THAT! Who would have thought that the simple act of reintroducing gravel to a riverbed could be like hitting the "reset" button for an entire ecosystem?! Thanks for showcasing what nature can do and giving it a helping hand. I am so proud to be a Planet Wild supporter!

A river near where I grew up is entirely gravel, and its the cleanest river I have ever seen. It is also the main filter point for a large underground aquafer that forms naturally, and provides the water for the whole city, so it's very important for everyone.
If you live in the Oder delta in Poland, you know perfectly well what stands under "minig industry", "strong industrial lobby" etc. It's KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. - one of the world leading copper and silver ore mining companies in the world. Not only they have multiple mines in the Lower Silesia region in Poland near the Oder river, they have mines all around the world in Chile, Canada, USA, they also have 32% of shares owned by the National Tresury of Poland. They are UNTOUCHABLE here since it's one of the biggest Polish industries (if not the biggest), and they will get away with this unbeliveable ecological disaster that sterilized the Oder river.
"Get away with" sounds a lot different than "persuade politicians that keeping their country's economy functioning is very important to their chances of being elected." Environmentalists never seem to have any interest in balancing economic concerns with their own. It's always an oppositional relationship: us vs them. If you live in Poland, then you benefit immensely from having this company remain profitable. They also have such an interest because their shareholders like long-term gains as well. So find a way to work with the company. It sounds like Planet Wild found a solution that worked. Frankly, they should have done a small study, then asked the company to fund the rest of the effort. It's almost certain they would have done that to try and improve their public image. And they likely would also have talked to their engineers to try and find out if they can do something about the salt in the run-off that originally caused the algal bloom. The environmental movement has got to figure out how to make peace and partnership with industry, because ultimately, people like the prosperity that comes from companies like these. Destroy their lives and they'll hate you, just like people hate Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil.

Yes, alteration of water flow patterns, loss of essential vegetation and in general disruption of the natural habitat - these are only a few consequences of channelization.
In the USA, and the Russian River Watershed north of San Francisco CA, similar effects of channelization by the US Army Corps of Engineers can be seen, though fortunately without the mining impacts.
Uses of specific type of gravel to clean the river 1. Breeding ground for fish 2. Water cleaning (increase surface area for bectria ) which helps in clearing the water from contaminants 3. Increase oxygen in water due to its turbulence in the water due to gravel The water captures more air 4.natural overflow
Honestly, I am amazed by the ripple effects of rewilding showcased in this video. Thanks for giving this perspective on things and for all the work you do. I hope the community will grow and enable you to support bigger and bigger projects!
@@planet-wild Yes. That’s my question. Where does the gravel come from? I worry that every time we try to fix something we damage something else. Like clearing habitat for solar or wind farms.
@@marymarlow3646 That's a very good question, and one of our goals was to make sure that there are no negative side effects of our work. The preparations for this rewilding work were really thorough, with several institutions and supervising bodies involved. They made sure that the gravel is sourced from the local area, it has the right size and there are no negative side effects.
When I look at Planet Wild's videos, I just think to myself: How has this channel not blown up yet? So much quality, with yet another amazing mission that benefits nature. Continue your work!
Thanks so much for your encouragement! Feel free to share this mission video with anyone who might be interested to see it - this would be a great help! 🙏
I can tell you why not. They are treating symptoms with a band aid instead of focusing on the source which is the entire watershed. When the watershed is healthy, the river will produce (expose) its gravels and other habitat elements. Placing gravel is not a long term fix. On the other hand, it can work if you are only concerned about fish spawning this year.
Mining industry would have been my first guess too, i just wasn't aware that here in europe these are seemingly not regulated at all. While i applaud the efforts of Planet Wild, aslong there are greedy people dumping waste into the rivers i am not sure how this could improve. These polutors need to be held accountable and made an example of.
I know it’s not the most important part of your work, but still: I really enjoy the beauty you manage to capture in your videos. The landscapes, the wildlife, but also some of the close-ups you make. I feel that this visual feast reminds why conservation and rewilding efforts are so crucial! We definitely don’t want to loose this beauty!
This is heartbreaking and heartwarming and uplifting at the same time. I recently got a degree in Natural Resources Conservation, but between the pandemic and deep personal losses, my enthusiasm that was born during my college days got buried. This video has awakened my passion for helping heal what we've hurt. I'm looking for local opportunities to volunteer. Anything happening in the US that you can suggest? Particularly interested in rewilding projects.
The level of genius demonstrated here is almost beyond belief. Hands-on. Low cost. Immediate gratification. I think this is what happens when you take out the involvement of corporations and big money high tech for profit.
Amazing how a small adjustment (adding pebbles) can completely change and fix a broken eco-system. You just need to give nature a little bit of help to heal itself.
The little streams that feed a river are often protected because of height, they flow into the main river because they are much higher, stopping pollutants from flowing in and their flow to keep it out. The main river channels, especially on navigatable rivers, is the easy transfer of pollutants along its course, if the feed stream hasn't got pollutants in it, it is likely to weather out the problem. Artur has done a great job with a project with historical data to back up the the differences we can see. Here we have a stream which used to be a mill stream. On one part of it there is plant life upstream, it comes to a small bridge and downstream is dead, just a bed of mud, probably polluted.
This reminds me of a creek I played in as a kid. A church was on one border of the creek, and they HATED having the neighborhood kids always in it, somthey decided to do something about it. First, they ran a pipe of raw sewage into the creek. Their next step, which killed the creek, was after they repaved their parking lot, they dumped the waster directly into the creek. The result made the water go black and reeking, before it turned white and smelled even worse. First Assembly Of God in House Springs, Missouri utterly destroyed what was a healthy stream, all because they did not want kids in the creek.
Thanks for your work and for giving me hope for a liveable future! It’s great to see how human intervention, even on a small scale, can reverse the damage we've caused.
Thank you for your amazing mission❤ I grown up next to the Odra River and as a child I wasn't allowed even to tauch it as it was too polluted.. I hope one day that water will be clean again and nature will comeback to the river banks.. ❤
Stunning, love your approach to consult active experts implementing simple solutions! Improving stability in ecosystems is so critical now, after so many decades of degradation. Adore what you’re doing!
A very insightful spotlight on the work of our amazing Rewilding Oder Delta team! We're very proud of their crossborder river restoration achievements and grateful for your support and explanation of these vital rewilding efforts! 💚💙 #LetsRewildTogether
Great Mission as always! This ones my favourite so far. The clean up of rivers have a special interest in my heart. I stumbled years ago on the youtube channel "The Ocean Cleanup" and follow them since. I also support local groups like the K.R.A.K.E. in cologne. They have a so called "Müllfalle: Rheinkrake" which also gathers trash and lots of plastic from the Rhine River. Great video! I will share it :)
Thanks so much for your feedback and support! 😊 We are happy to hear that our missions resonate with you. 🙏 It’s so great you support local groups in your area! We are always pleased to hear when people support actions that benefit nature 💚
Good point. This happens in Eastern Europe all the times, guess what? They never find the ones who responsible for it. If they wait for the guiltys the river will never be healthy again.
@@GP-qn5sxits a good idea, but not possible in such a corupted situation, there are many privet investigations about who polluted Oder river and we know who did it, but our goverment wont do anything about it cuz its thier friends and "in raports everything is okay:
There is a very obvious way to go about this: Everyone who is illegally dumping is responsible. We need to make an example here. We need to treat every illegal dumper found at least partially as the culprit in this case because the fines for stuff like this are way too low anyways. The way it currently works the fines are just a calculated part of doing business. Otherwise the example will be: Just continue, they can't do anything if we just do it illegally. Similar rules already apply to people in nearly every other area. Like if you are a caught trespassing and something was stolen you are automatically the suspect. The same logic needs to apply here just getting caught for illegal duping alone needs to be treated as a significant crime anyways. This is an example for why.
Problem is that most of the damage is legal but unethical. Environmental standards will be raised but on the meantime Poland is not going to shut down polish jobs
I’ve used a Stone Slinger (one U.S. product brand name) to place gravel in streams for salmonids. Where dump truck access is available adjacent to the stream these units can accurately place gravel >20m from rear of truck. There’s no need to enter stream. You’ve done a great job of getting well washed gravel. If salmonid spawning gravel is your target adding 10-15% pea gravel is preferred. If stream is higher velocity adding the same percent of round rock that passes through an approximate 80mm screen. Of course the lighter gravels will relocate downstream faster over time with floods or by redd building. You may want to consider this when adding some additional in five years or so.
The saddest part of this is that it never should have happened in the first place. How arrogant are we that we think we can just dump industrial waste into our literal water supply, a resource we need to survive, and somehow not face consequences? If we really cared about this planet, then how about this. New law. If you do something that creates an industrial waste, you must be able to properly dispose of or recycle, or decontaminate that waste or you are not allowed to make that product anymore. We must become more conscious of the impact we have on this planet because we are running out of time.

Your missions are amazing, not only due to the environmental benefits but also because they turn fear and disillusionment into hope and confidence. That's why I support Planet Wild.
Anyone who keeps an aquarium can tell you the huge importance of aquatic bacteria. Gravel is way better for a river than sand, as it allows both oxygenation and growth of aerobic bacteria. Sand does too, but the surface area is limited and it also shields the lower layers from oxygenated water which allows for the build-up of anaerobic bacteria which is toxic to most aquatic life.
The craziest thing about all re-wildening projects, is that how cheap is it! Like people pay monthly rent in some places for higher price, than this project needs.
Profound. Thank you. We have a new neighbour with non permitted business on the river just up from our famland. Inspectors pretending it isn't happening. BUT a lot of the dirt and GRAVEL road got washed in during flooding. We have some added gravel that I thought was a problem between us. This is so exciting!
In fact, not any gravel does the job. An important prerequisite for the correct working of the gravel piles is the use of gravel and natural stones that are not broken or crushed. In case of our projects, the local team has a certain set of good practices, which were developed in collaboration with environmental experts and water administration, to make sure that the gravel has the desired effect.
@@planet-wild ahh! Thank you. I had noticed the stones you were using were very different to the road gravel we have. It is beyond frustrating that even strict zoning laws don't really matter to some, just a game to see how they much they can get away with. Wishing you the best with your projects. I have had success in other parts of the farm, and is very worthwhile.
Yes! A "fee" isn't enough of a punishment when they can just pay it and keep dumping. There needs to be jailtime for the one in charge, or a repossession of the business. (I say take over the business instead of shutting it down so the folks lower on the ladder can keep thier jobs)
I am so inspired. For a long time human extinction seemed inevitable, like 99%likely very soon. After seeing this video I'd guess 98% chance of humanity self destruction. Yea we are that lame. I don't want humanity to go extinct, unless we don't change. In the case we don't change then going extinct is our best option
When the video notes the water monitoring system in Frankfurt, it's important to note that this is not the Frankfurt you're probably thinking of. There are two Frankfurts in Germany, one on the Rhein in West Germany (the larger and far more famous one) and Frankfurt an der Oder in Eastern Germany.
This is great with the stones. Depending on the river and how wild it is and its other issues, creating beawer dam alanogues can also being setting the rivers natural process of meandering free. See links below. Oh, and also see Mossy Earth another NGO doing the same as PW. There are 5 links below.
Playing with erosion and beaver dam alanogues to restore a river with a too deep insscission. Its a cost effective method if the actors has more time than money and depending on the restoration goal. ruclips.net/p/PLI730hiY77co5eWz_XqJOWmTOM7_BSAQg
A webinar from Sage Grouse Initiative in the US. This is to use beaver dam analogues to restore a riparian zone, so the rivers water start to fill a lot wider zone along the river and make the zone act like a sponge instead of a drain. ruclips.net/video/eenaS6lo578/видео.html
This is on the importance of deadwood and hiding places in the streams for smaller fish. Deadwood prowide surface area for algae as gravel, and physical hiding places for smaller fish, esp if also combined with pools so the water is slowed down. The more alge the more of the animals that live of them, and the more biomass the stream can sustain. So combining large surface area and oxegynations is key. The pools allow time for the water to be cleansed and sediment to wash out, so gravel beds downstream is not filled in sediment. The bigger the wet area of ground in a stream, the more life it can support. Beawer dams support large amounts of other life, as the widen this area, and that why they are a key stone spieces. The logs across the stream also act as a bridge for small mammals etc. ruclips.net/video/RYtdKcyv3WI/видео.html
Love the solution used, in aquaponic agriculture gravel like material are used for that very same reason, allowing bacteria flora to strive and convert dead organic matter and allowing it to be recycled into the environment in a positive and protective way. Yes the temperature of the water at the time of elevated organic matter would have an important factor in the cause. It is known to contribute to Alger bloom, but I would like a little more seriousness that not everything be blamed on climate change. You did not need to cool the planet to fix the river, you just had to restore the river bed to a more natural state. That part of Europe was once under kilometres of ice, thanks good the weather is a little more hospitable… And during Roman time the planet was about 4C warmer then now….
Super cool, especially how once the intervention has taken place, nature takes over as nature do. One question for anyone knowledgeable: Is there a treatment of the gravel needed to kill anything live before it's deposited? I assume the possible bacteria, algae, moss, anything dormant would disrupt the ecosystem and bring forth harm. Thanks everyone!
4:15 You know it was caused by illegal toxic waste dumping. You don't need a "political solution". You just need to enforce laws against illegal dumping. Don't do pathetic corporate fines, put the actual people who did the crime in actual prison for 40 years, and it will stop happening.
Can we return to former missions to support them on an ongoing basis and have a say where our donations go? - I don't mean this in a smart-ass kind of way, I support and admire your work and I think it's the most important work we can do as a species. Just in general, maybe I don't want to support the owls, but the bisons, or maybe I want to keep supporting the rivers, not just once, but on an ongoing basis or several times. That would be a nice option to have. Thank you for your work!
Once you guys said you added gravel in areas I was like well they’re taking the aquarium approach naturally by adding more areas for beneficial bacteria to thrive and help clean up the stuff that needs to be broken down. Well done
I love this video not only did you inform and educate others your actually making a difference and helping teach others how they can help as well amazing video keep it up you have earned a subscriber haha
Thanks for your support and being a part of our community. 💚 Happy to hear that our missions resonate with you, and we also hope that there will be more and more successful projects like this one! 🙏
A world restored to its original, healthy and natural condition. Now that would be a wondrous beautiful sight. Free of pollution and the insanity created by humanity.
Very interesting video.Sometimes i lose faith in humanity but people like you helps restor it. Also,the people in the 16 century understod what they were doing but they did not care.Profits and human confort was the most import things.The idea to protect the nature is a very modern one like 20 century and expecially after ww2 modern. Until then every civilization on earth destroyed and exploited the nature.From Europe to the Americas,from Asia to Africa,from the most primitive tribes to the most advanced civilizations,nobody cared about the nature or tried to preserve it,even if they understood what they were doing.Human interest was the most important things.Sadly this mentality is still presents in many people and countries,expecially the poorer ones.They dont understand that a fast huge profit hides very expensive long term problems. I think that a modality to get more people to respect and protect nature is to help them realized that what they are doing right now will massively impact them,in terms of money,later.
Like terrestrial ecosystem reclamation, the starting point is the substrate. Inorganic material to soil in the case of land based systems. It's learning to see the whole system. And it's looking at human civilization as the benefactor of healthy ecosystems, not the manipulator and destroyer.
The aeration of rippling water over rocks. They artificially aerate sewage lagoons by pumping air through them. This eventually purifies the water so it can be released into the run-off system. Also there may have been a release of not completely purified water into this river. The anaerobic bacteria effect as balanced against aerobic types.
Fantastic question! 🙌 The local team developed a certain set of good practices, in collaboration with scientists, design offices, water and environmental administrations. An important prerequisite for the correct working of the pile is the use of gravel and natural stones, not broken or crushed stones. When selecting the location of the material, we try to use stone from the surrounding area - gravel mines in the region. In the case of small stockpiles, we use stone and gravel from farmers who have significant amounts harvested from their fields.

I never realized the connection between channelization and the loss of breeding grounds for fish in rivers - eye-opening! Thanks for the great work 💚
Yes, alteration of water flow patterns, loss of essential vegetation and in general disruption of the natural habitat - these are only a few consequences of channelization.
In the USA, and the Russian River Watershed north of San Francisco CA, similar effects of channelization by the US Army Corps of Engineers can be seen, though fortunately without the mining impacts.
Uses of specific type of gravel to clean the river
1. Breeding ground for fish
2. Water cleaning (increase surface area for bectria ) which helps in clearing the water from contaminants
3. Increase oxygen in water due to its turbulence in the water due to gravel The water captures more air
4.natural overflow
Honestly, I am amazed by the ripple effects of rewilding showcased in this video. Thanks for giving this perspective on things and for all the work you do. I hope the community will grow and enable you to support bigger and bigger projects!
Thanks for your feedback! We are happy to hear that you liked this mission and could learn something new ☺
People like Arthur deserve a special medal awarded at a special ceremony,
Absolutely!
It’s much inspiring to see eco activists doing that, rather than blocking the roads or throwing paints on Mona Lisa. Very educational video
Super interesting to see the ripple effects that the rewilding has on the entire ecosystem! Thanks for the work that you guys are doing! 🙏
Yes, we forget way too often, that everything is interconnected in nature.♻
@@planet-wild Yes. That’s my question. Where does the gravel come from? I worry that every time we try to fix something we damage something else. Like clearing habitat for solar or wind farms.
@@marymarlow3646 That's a very good question, and one of our goals was to make sure that there are no negative side effects of our work.
The preparations for this rewilding work were really thorough, with several institutions and supervising bodies involved. They made sure that the gravel is sourced from the local area, it has the right size and there are no negative side effects.
When I look at Planet Wild's videos, I just think to myself: How has this channel not blown up yet? So much quality, with yet another amazing mission that benefits nature. Continue your work!
Thanks so much for your encouragement! Feel free to share this mission video with anyone who might be interested to see it - this would be a great help! 🙏
I can tell you why not. They are treating symptoms with a band aid instead of focusing on the source which is the entire watershed. When the watershed is healthy, the river will produce (expose) its gravels and other habitat elements. Placing gravel is not a long term fix. On the other hand, it can work if you are only concerned about fish spawning this year.
Another amazing mission, thank you!
Who wound have thought that when I was throwing rocks into a river, I was actually rewilding it! 😅
Thanks for your support!
And love your perspective on throwing the stones!😆
Mining industry would have been my first guess too, i just wasn't aware that here in europe these are seemingly not regulated at all.
While i applaud the efforts of Planet Wild, aslong there are greedy people dumping waste into the rivers i am not sure how this could improve. These polutors need to be held accountable and made an example of.
Eastern Europe problems still working way through the system
The economic power of the mining industry is common throughout the world. Unfortunately, the damage is as well.
I know it’s not the most important part of your work, but still: I really enjoy the beauty you manage to capture in your videos. The landscapes, the wildlife, but also some of the close-ups you make. I feel that this visual feast reminds why conservation and rewilding efforts are so crucial! We definitely don’t want to loose this beauty!
Thanks so much for your feedback! We are happy to hear that our missions resonate with you 😊💚
This is heartbreaking and heartwarming and uplifting at the same time. I recently got a degree in Natural Resources Conservation, but between the pandemic and deep personal losses, my enthusiasm that was born during my college days got buried. This video has awakened my passion for helping heal what we've hurt. I'm looking for local opportunities to volunteer. Anything happening in the US that you can suggest? Particularly interested in rewilding projects.
There are many Land Trusts in the US plus groups like Trout Unlimited
The level of genius demonstrated here is almost beyond belief. Hands-on. Low cost. Immediate gratification. I think this is what happens when you take out the involvement of corporations and big money high tech for profit.
The moment I saw that a whole river got wiped out I knew it was probably mining, they are the bane of waterways everywhere.
Amazing how a small adjustment (adding pebbles) can completely change and fix a broken eco-system. You just need to give nature a little bit of help to heal itself.
You've put this nicely! 💚 Indeed nature is AMAZING! 💚🌲🌊
Nature is self healing.
The little streams that feed a river are often protected because of height, they flow into the main river because they are much higher, stopping pollutants from flowing in and their flow to keep it out. The main river channels, especially on navigatable rivers, is the easy transfer of pollutants along its course, if the feed stream hasn't got pollutants in it, it is likely to weather out the problem. Artur has done a great job with a project with historical data to back up the the differences we can see.
Here we have a stream which used to be a mill stream. On one part of it there is plant life upstream, it comes to a small bridge and downstream is dead, just a bed of mud, probably polluted.
This reminds me of a creek I played in as a kid. A church was on one border of the creek, and they HATED having the neighborhood kids always in it, somthey decided to do something about it. First, they ran a pipe of raw sewage into the creek. Their next step, which killed the creek, was after they repaved their parking lot, they dumped the waster directly into the creek. The result made the water go black and reeking, before it turned white and smelled even worse. First Assembly Of God in House Springs, Missouri utterly destroyed what was a healthy stream, all because they did not want kids in the creek.
Not very Godly are they
@@kenneth9874 they NEVER are
@@SMDoktorPepper that particular denomination perhaps, some of their sewage ran through their buildings would be justified
Used to be the standard
Bible thumping hypocrites,don’t they know that their God supposedly made that creek🤬
Thanks for your work and for giving me hope for a liveable future! It’s great to see how human intervention, even on a small scale, can reverse the damage we've caused.
Thanks for your encouragement and happy to hear that you liked this mission. 🙏💚
Thank you for your amazing mission❤ I grown up next to the Odra River and as a child I wasn't allowed even to tauch it as it was too polluted.. I hope one day that water will be clean again and nature will comeback to the river banks.. ❤
Oh wow! We hope, too, that the situation will change will better soon! 💚
Love that this is non politicized and really focuses what it's really about!
Thanks for your feedback! Happy to hear that you liked our approach 💚
Oh, it is, about the climate change . it's shoved up inour eyes every time. But it's a fraud.
Stunning, love your approach to consult active experts implementing simple solutions! Improving stability in ecosystems is so critical now, after so many decades of degradation. Adore what you’re doing!
A very insightful spotlight on the work of our amazing Rewilding Oder Delta team! We're very proud of their crossborder river restoration achievements and grateful for your support and explanation of these vital rewilding efforts! 💚💙 #LetsRewildTogether
Thanks a lot! 🙏💙
Great Mission as always! This ones my favourite so far. The clean up of rivers have a special interest in my heart. I stumbled years ago on the youtube channel "The Ocean Cleanup" and follow them since. I also support local groups like the K.R.A.K.E. in cologne. They have a so called "Müllfalle: Rheinkrake" which also gathers trash and lots of plastic from the Rhine River. Great video! I will share it :)
Thanks so much for your feedback and support! 😊 We are happy to hear that our missions resonate with you. 🙏
It’s so great you support local groups in your area! We are always pleased to hear when people support actions that benefit nature 💚
We could also avoid it from being poisoned in the first place, but I'm not confident that would be legal.
i really like how you ad up the numbers at the end to give a nice summary ! this really helps understanding where the money is going !
Thanks! Transparency is very important for us 🤓
i think those that are polluting should pay for it
Good point. This happens in Eastern Europe all the times, guess what? They never find the ones who responsible for it. If they wait for the guiltys the river will never be healthy again.
just charge a cleaning fee to everybody
@@GP-qn5sxits a good idea, but not possible in such a corupted situation, there are many privet investigations about who polluted Oder river and we know who did it, but our goverment wont do anything about it cuz its thier friends and "in raports everything is okay:
And then go to jail.
There is a very obvious way to go about this:
Everyone who is illegally dumping is responsible. We need to make an example here. We need to treat every illegal dumper found at least partially as the culprit in this case because the fines for stuff like this are way too low anyways. The way it currently works the fines are just a calculated part of doing business.
Otherwise the example will be:
Just continue, they can't do anything if we just do it illegally.
Similar rules already apply to people in nearly every other area. Like if you are a caught trespassing and something was stolen you are automatically the suspect.
The same logic needs to apply here just getting caught for illegal duping alone needs to be treated as a significant crime anyways. This is an example for why.
Problem is that most of the damage is legal but unethical.
Environmental standards will be raised but on the meantime Poland is not going to shut down polish jobs
Fines aren't a punishment to big industries like this. You must threaten jailtime or repossession of thier business
Thank you deeply for what you do. Devoting your life to restore humanity's debt to our house is admirable
Thanks for the feedback and support! 🙏 Glad to know our mission resonates with you. 💙
This channel, these videos are a breath of fresh air, and so well put together, congrats!
Another stellar work from you guys! Thanks for helping the planet and the future of our species, step by step 🙏
Thanks so much for your feedback! Happy to hear that you liked this mission ☺️
I’ve used a Stone Slinger (one U.S. product brand name) to place gravel in streams for salmonids. Where dump truck access is available adjacent to the stream these units can accurately place gravel >20m from rear of truck. There’s no need to enter stream. You’ve done a great job of getting well washed gravel. If salmonid spawning gravel is your target adding 10-15% pea gravel is preferred. If stream is higher velocity adding the same percent of round rock that passes through an approximate 80mm screen.
Of course the lighter gravels will relocate downstream faster over time with floods or by redd building. You may want to consider this when adding some additional in five years or so.
Makes so much sense one of the main reasons rivers are fresh is because of flowing through gravel.
This is why I hate giant corporations so much. They use their money to get away with crimes that the average man would face life in prison over.
☹️
The lobby system is inherently corrupt and goes against the interest of the public, it's a horrible reality in the US as well
The knowledge of Victor schauberger would have a great impact on this river.
The link between industrial pollution, climate change, and the blooming of golden algae was something I wasn't aware of before - thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your feedback - happy to hear that you've learnt something new through this mission video 😊
Always a risk when you upset the balance of nature
The saddest part of this is that it never should have happened in the first place. How arrogant are we that we think we can just dump industrial waste into our literal water supply, a resource we need to survive, and somehow not face consequences?
If we really cared about this planet, then how about this. New law. If you do something that creates an industrial waste, you must be able to properly dispose of or recycle, or decontaminate that waste or you are not allowed to make that product anymore. We must become more conscious of the impact we have on this planet because we are running out of time.
Man Really wished to get that Owl Badge
It was the Main reason why I joined and am Glad that I've stayed.
My money isnt going in Vain.
Thanks for your contribution! It's thanks to people like you we can make these missions happen 🙏
@@planet-wild Its honestly the more best option to fund a Group that can aid others that even has a astounding debrief of where the funds go.
I dont waist my time working and taking care of myself but also help out the planet.
Humans together STRONG
Thank you for so enthusiastic video and positive nature conservation projects! Good luck!
Thanks for your encouragement!😊
If I ever achieve my goals I will support you greatly
Thanks! ☺
Thank you for your work. I think it's a really good way to cooperate with initiatives that have already proven to increase biodiversity. Looking forward to your next missions.
Bin richtig gerne Member bei euch und freu mich, dass ihr u.a. in Deutschland und Umgebung mit den Maßnahmen ansetzt, denn ich glaube, das braucht's!
Thanks for your feedback and your support as a member! 🙏 If you have time, join our live community chat tonight on Discord - 20:30 Berlin time. Feli and Markus will be there to talk about this mission and answer questions.
Your missions are amazing, not only due to the environmental benefits but also because they turn fear and disillusionment into hope and confidence. That's why I support Planet Wild.
Thanks for backing us and recognizing the work we put in our mission! 💚 We're happy you found your way to our channel 💚😊
@@planet-wild Thank physicist Sabine Hossenfelder, who endorsed you good people and your work and kindly offered to pay the first monthly donation!
Anyone who keeps an aquarium can tell you the huge importance of aquatic bacteria. Gravel is way better for a river than sand, as it allows both oxygenation and growth of aerobic bacteria. Sand does too, but the surface area is limited and it also shields the lower layers from oxygenated water which allows for the build-up of anaerobic bacteria which is toxic to most aquatic life.
The craziest thing about all re-wildening projects, is that how cheap is it!
Like people pay monthly rent in some places for higher price, than this project needs.
Amazing what you are doing. I'm proud to be a supporter 🙂
Thanks for your feedback and for being our supporter 🙏 These missions are possible thanks to community members like you 💚
This project is especially close to my heart! Ty Planet Wild, you're changing the world
Thanks a bunch for the support and appreciating our efforts! 💙🌊
I was waiting for a new mission! What an amazing job, thank you so much! 🙏
Thanks for your support! 🙏💚
Great material, Thanks Artur many rivers in Poland, especially in West Pomerania, are going back to the nature, to the wild.
Thanks for your feedback and encouragement! 🙏
Great simple and cost-efficient idea with a major beneficial impact! Wow! 👏🇩🇪
Thanks! Happy to hear that you liked our mission 😊
Great to see another organisation making a real difference to the environment
Thanks ☺️
That's so great! Now nature needs balancing so we all have the right amounts of blessed Rain
This is love and commitment in action.
Thanks for your encouragement 💚
Sabine sent me here and I already have bought a membership, I love the work you do and your videos are great fun! Love from the UK.
Can't wait to see that wildfire video next month!!! 🤯
It's gonna be crazy, we can tell that much. 🔥
Good job! In this time of turmoil it is refreshing to see people who cares about other.
Great impact guys, well done!
Thank you!☺️
Profound. Thank you.
We have a new neighbour with non permitted business on the river just up from our famland. Inspectors pretending it isn't happening.
BUT a lot of the dirt and GRAVEL road got washed in during flooding.
We have some added gravel that I thought was a problem between us.
This is so exciting!
In fact, not any gravel does the job. An important prerequisite for the correct working of the gravel piles is the use of gravel and natural stones that are not broken or crushed.
In case of our projects, the local team has a certain set of good practices, which were developed in collaboration with environmental experts and water administration, to make sure that the gravel has the desired effect.
@@planet-wild ahh! Thank you. I had noticed the stones you were using were very different to the road gravel we have.
It is beyond frustrating that even strict zoning laws don't really matter to some, just a game to see how they much they can get away with.
Wishing you the best with your projects. I have had success in other parts of the farm, and is very worthwhile.
Thanks so much! 🙏
i LOVE planet wild. Man thank you so much for your work.
Happy to hear you like our missions. 💚🙏
Wow! Gravel .. such a simple solution. Also - awesome animations!!
Thanks for your feedback ☺️ Happy to hear that you liked this mission!
Facilities which polute the environment need to be closed, no mercy!
Yes! A "fee" isn't enough of a punishment when they can just pay it and keep dumping. There needs to be jailtime for the one in charge, or a repossession of the business. (I say take over the business instead of shutting it down so the folks lower on the ladder can keep thier jobs)
I am so inspired. For a long time human extinction seemed inevitable, like 99%likely very soon. After seeing this video I'd guess 98% chance of humanity self destruction. Yea we are that lame. I don't want humanity to go extinct, unless we don't change. In the case we don't change then going extinct is our best option
We are happy to hear that our missions give you hope! We think it's important not to give up and to act - do what we can, one mission at a time.
Such an amazing mission again, learned a lot 🐠 ❤
Thanks for your feedback ☺️ We are happy to hear that our missions resonate with you 💚
When the video notes the water monitoring system in Frankfurt, it's important to note that this is not the Frankfurt you're probably thinking of. There are two Frankfurts in Germany, one on the Rhein in West Germany (the larger and far more famous one) and Frankfurt an der Oder in Eastern Germany.
This is great with the stones. Depending on the river and how wild it is and its other issues, creating beawer dam alanogues can also being setting the rivers natural process of meandering free. See links below.
Oh, and also see Mossy Earth another NGO doing the same as PW. There are 5 links below.
Playing with erosion and beaver dam alanogues to restore a river with a too deep insscission. Its a cost effective method if the actors has more time than money and depending on the restoration goal.

A webinar from Sage Grouse Initiative in the US. This is to use beaver dam analogues to restore a riparian zone, so the rivers water start to fill a lot wider zone along the river and make the zone act like a sponge instead of a drain.

This is on the importance of deadwood and hiding places in the streams for smaller fish. Deadwood prowide surface area for algae as gravel, and physical hiding places for smaller fish, esp if also combined with pools so the water is slowed down. The more alge the more of the animals that live of them, and the more biomass the stream can sustain. So combining large surface area and oxegynations is key. The pools allow time for the water to be cleansed and sediment to wash out, so gravel beds downstream is not filled in sediment.
The bigger the wet area of ground in a stream, the more life it can support. Beawer dams support large amounts of other life, as the widen this area, and that why they are a key stone spieces.
The logs across the stream also act as a bridge for small mammals etc.

Thanks for your wonderful Work!! ♥️🌍

Gravel can be used in storm drains to cleanse the water before it reaches the creeks, streams, then rivers, lakes, and then bays.
Such a simple idea with such a great impact, amazing! :D
Thanks ☺️ Happy to hear that you liked this mission!
Love the solution used, in aquaponic agriculture gravel like material are used for that very same reason, allowing bacteria flora to strive and convert dead organic matter and allowing it to be recycled into the environment in a positive and protective way. Yes the temperature of the water at the time of elevated organic matter would have an important factor in the cause. It is known to contribute to Alger bloom, but I would like a little more seriousness that not everything be blamed on climate change. You did not need to cool the planet to fix the river, you just had to restore the river bed to a more natural state. That part of Europe was once under kilometres of ice, thanks good the weather is a little more hospitable… And during Roman time the planet was about 4C warmer then now….
Another great video!
Thanks so much for your feedback! Happy to hear that you liked this mission ☺️
Super cool, especially how once the intervention has taken place, nature takes over as nature do. One question for anyone knowledgeable: Is there a treatment of the gravel needed to kill anything live before it's deposited? I assume the possible bacteria, algae, moss, anything dormant would disrupt the ecosystem and bring forth harm. Thanks everyone!
🦋fantastic work, love this channel and what you do❤
Thank you! ☺️
The gravel is also used ss a trickle filter in Koi ponds to put algae in the moving water snd not in the still water.
4:15 You know it was caused by illegal toxic waste dumping. You don't need a "political solution". You just need to enforce laws against illegal dumping. Don't do pathetic corporate fines, put the actual people who did the crime in actual prison for 40 years, and it will stop happening.
Huge THANK YOU for this inspiring and essential work!!!
Thanks for your feedback! 🙏
Can we return to former missions to support them on an ongoing basis and have a say where our donations go? - I don't mean this in a smart-ass kind of way, I support and admire your work and I think it's the most important work we can do as a species. Just in general, maybe I don't want to support the owls, but the bisons, or maybe I want to keep supporting the rivers, not just once, but on an ongoing basis or several times. That would be a nice option to have. Thank you for your work!
Hey, thanks for these suggestions. 🙏
We'll see whether/how it could be possible to implement them.
Once you guys said you added gravel in areas I was like well they’re taking the aquarium approach naturally by adding more areas for beneficial bacteria to thrive and help clean up the stuff that needs to be broken down. Well done
Thanks for the support 💚 We are glad to hear that our actions resonated with you 💙 🌊
Ecological crimes like this need to have really high sentences, especially with ones who impact so much wildlife...

A world restored to its original, healthy and natural condition. Now that would be a wondrous beautiful sight. Free of pollution and the insanity created by humanity.
🙏
Very interesting video.Sometimes i lose faith in humanity but people like you helps restor it.
Also,the people in the 16 century understod what they were doing but they did not care.Profits and human confort was the most import things.The idea to protect the nature is a very modern one like 20 century and expecially after ww2 modern.
Until then every civilization on earth destroyed and exploited the nature.From Europe to the Americas,from Asia to Africa,from the most primitive tribes to the most advanced civilizations,nobody cared about the nature or tried to preserve it,even if they understood what they were doing.Human interest was the most important things.Sadly this mentality is still presents in many people and countries,expecially the poorer ones.They dont understand that a fast huge profit hides very expensive long term problems.
I think that a modality to get more people to respect and protect nature is to help them realized that what they are doing right now will massively impact them,in terms of money,later.
Thanks for your feedback! We also believe that creating awareness and showing that we can make a difference is tremendously important ☺️
Like terrestrial ecosystem reclamation, the starting point is the substrate. Inorganic material to soil in the case of land based systems. It's learning to see the whole system. And it's looking at human civilization as the benefactor of healthy ecosystems, not the manipulator and destroyer.
Great work!
Thank you! 🙏

The aeration of rippling water over rocks. They artificially aerate sewage lagoons by pumping air through them. This eventually purifies the water so it can be released into the run-off system. Also there may have been a release of not completely purified water into this river. The anaerobic bacteria effect as balanced against aerobic types.
Where is this gravel harvested from? Another river?
Fantastic question! 🙌 The local team developed a certain set of good practices, in collaboration with scientists, design offices, water and environmental administrations.
An important prerequisite for the correct working of the pile is the use of gravel and natural stones, not broken or crushed stones.
When selecting the location of the material, we try to use stone from the surrounding area - gravel mines in the region. In the case of small stockpiles, we use stone and gravel from farmers who have significant amounts harvested from their fields.
Your doing what we are here in this planet to do! Keep it up!
