The water quality of the Charles River is threatened by harmful algae growth. The Charles River Floating Wetland project is investigating the extent to which floating wetlands can help reduce nutrient pollution. They are intended to absorb nutrients from the water, increase biodiversity and support local ecological changes.

The Charles River Floating Wetland is an ecological solution to fight harmful algal blooms that threaten the Charles River's health. Floating wetlands absorb nutrients, add biodiversity, support local ecosystems, and offer co-benefits like additional green space.
