Raising awareness of invasive plants among the younger generation
On 17 June 2024, primary school pupils enthusiastically uprooted invasive plants that threatened the stability of the banks along the Trient watercourse in the municipality of Salvan (canton of Valais). Xavière Schröder, Environmental Project Manager at Alpiq, organised this action to raise awareness among the younger generation of the importance of preserving local biodiversity and playing an active part in protecting the environment.
