Just imagine how nice the likes of Paris, London, or New York would be if they cleaned up their rivers and people could swim in them.

Paris is doing some great things right now. Bike and public transportation infrastructure too

It’s amazing that they’re actually doing something about it. Just so everyone knows, most cities are much worse than Paris. They’re trying to correct it

I applaud them for making the effort to do the this with the momentum of the Olympic Games, and having the guts to crack down on the heavy polluters. A clean public river speaks volumes about the values of the people who live in the city. In like manner the folks in London have finally had the courage to clean up the Themes as well.

Come to Belgrade and test water from the Danube river. I'm pretty sure you will find a new species.

Paris' ambitious project to transform the Seine into a safe swimming venue for the Olympics and beyond is a monumental effort in urban environmental engineering. It's a reminder of the importance of sustainable city planning and the impact of infrastructure investments on public health and global events. 🌊

Nice to see they're constructing a diving tank for the new free diving event

Still not safe. It seems immoral to expect athletes to sicken themselves by swimming in this filth, Olympics or not.

Now look at the Thames.

This reminds me of the contaminated waters at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
