Sadiq Khan's initiative aims to enhance London's biodiversity by reintroducing eels, otters, and water voles to improve the health of the city's waterways.
Inspired by New York's successful scheme with oysters, Khan's plan seeks not only to boost threatened species numbers but to improve overall water quality.
The focus on low-lying areas near the Thames is crucial, as these regions are more prone to flooding, making flood management a necessary part of the plan.
Reintroducing these species will promote plant growth around waterways, which in turn helps absorb excess water and mitigates flooding risks in the capital.
