Community-led investigation shows widespread metal pollution in Corby’s rivers
Earthwatch Europe helps people take action to protect the nature around them.
We connect people with nature and give them the tools they need to fight for our planet. From fighting for healthy freshwater, bringing greenspaces to our cities or putting nature back into farming, we support communities and organisations to build knowledge, create connections and motivate action.
