Ecologists petition EU over Spain inaction on lagoon crisis
Ecologists said Wednesday they had submitted a formal complaint to the EU over Spain's "continued failure" to protect the Mar Menor, one of Europe's largest saltwater lagoons, against agricultural pollution. In a statement outlining details of the complaint, ClientEarth and Spain's Ecologists in Action urge the European Commission to take "immediate action against Spain" as harmful agricultural practices were pushing the lagoon "to the brink of ecological collapse".
