Deltas of the World

Deltas of the World

In the heart of Europe lies a unique biotope and a landscape characterised by water: the Rhine-Meuse Delta. Around a third of the Netherlands lies in the heart of Europe, below sea level, with 3,500 polders as a buffer for excess water and numerous cities crossed by canals. It is also a region where nature borders directly on cities, where intensive agriculture gradually leaves its place to the water, where the largest nature parks are in the immediate vicinity of Rotterdam's largest industrial port. From the sources of the Waal to the port of Rotterdam, we encounter protected plant, bird and mammal species, as well as the Delta inhabitants who have created this unique habitat.

South of Barcelona lies the Ebro Delta. Its beaches and lagoons are an exceptional refuge for migratory and native bird species. The delta is known for the numerous pink flamingos that nest near the glittering white saltworks. Sea salt is extracted and rice is cultivated in the delta. The impressive lake landscape is endangered to a certain extent by human intervention. For fear of their harvest, some rice farmers take action against flocks of birds. Invasive rice pests are also a threat to farmers in Europe's largest rice growing region. Other problems make the situation more difficult, such as climate change and rising sea levels or dams holding back sediments. What can be done to preserve the unique Ebro Delta?
