💨 Abstract

Volunteers in Oruro, Bolivia, cleaned the polluted banks of Lake Uru Uru, a critical stopover for migratory birds, collecting an expected 180 metric tons of trash. The annual clean-up has reclaimed 19 hectares of the lake since 2021, but the lake remains contaminated with mineral sediments and garbage.
