Green Warriors: Indonesia, The World's Most Polluted River

Citarum River, Indonesia, is the world’s most polluted river. One of the main polluters is actually the fashion industry: 500 textile factories throw away their wastewater directly into the Citarum river. Thanks to the help of concerned citizens, the Green Warriors team analyzed water samples, rice, children’s hair, etc. and found out many toxic chemicals are endangering the lives of the 14 million Indonesians using the Citarum water. These findings made the Indonesian government change its wastewater regulations. The president also recently announced a new plan to clean up the Citarum. The fashion brands questioned in this documentary promised a better control of their Indonesian suppliers. (Ekotopfilm)
