Eutrophication of the Dâmbovița river, caused by high temperatures and low flow, is leading to algal blooms, affecting water quality. Experts warn that this can be dangerous, causing fish kills and toxins that can affect human and animal health. The unpleasant odor and lack of effective interventions are frequent complaints from Bucharest residents. Representatives of Apelor Române assure that efforts are being made to clean up the water.
