Nitrogen levels in The Netherlands

-

 🔥 The ground in the Netherlands is in trouble. Here is why:

🇳🇱 Most people don’t see it—but the Netherlands has one of the highest nitrogen levels in Europe. The cause is a combination of intensive farming, heavy traffic, and industrial activity. These release nitrogen into the air, which returns to the ground through rain. 🌱 This causes sensitive ecosystems such as heathlands to suffer. Plants like heather get pushed out by fast-growing grasses. Wildlife disappears. And the risk of wildfires grows. 🌍 That is why The Netherlands is acting: 🔸 Reducing livestock numbers 🔸 Restoring nature reserves 🔸 Supporting more sustainable farming 🔸 Reducing maximum speed on motorways 💚 Nature thrives when we restore balance - and every step we take brings us closer.
