Pao Fernández Garrido of the World Fish Migration Foundation tells us that 5,000 dam removals have taken place so far in Europe. She discusses the negative impacts the presence of these dams had on river ecosystems and other connected ecosystems on land and in the ocean, and how the dramatic recovery following the removal of these dams positively impacts the environment and the economy.
