Workers collect dead fish from a river near the port city of Volos, central Greece, August 29, 2024, following a mass die-off linked to extreme climate fluctuations
GREECE: More than 100 tons of dead fish was collected in and around the port of Volos, central Greece, following a mass die-off linked to extreme climate fluctuations, authorities said today.
Dead freshwater fish filled the bay, 200 miles north of Athens, and nearby rivers after water levels were swollen by floods last year, followed by months of severe drought.
The die-off has hit local businesses along the seafront with commercial activity reduced by 80 per cent in the past three days.
