Save the Blue Heart of Europe - A campaign for the protection of Balkan Rivers
PETITION: Macedonia – No Dams in Mavrovo National Park!
One of the oldest national parks in Europe is under attack. With the financial support of the World Bank and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the government of Macedonia intends to have two large hydropower plants built in the middle of a national park. The Mavrovo National Park provides habitat to the last remaining population of the Balkan Lynx. If these projects will be implemented as foreseen, this rare subspecies of the Eurasian Lynx may go extinct.
Call upon the banks and the Macedonian Prime Minister to stop the projects!
