DEVELOPING: Guerrilla Gardener Creates Emergency Wetland in LA River Amid Environmental Crisis

Breaking News: Guerrilla Gardener Creates Emergency Wetland in LA River Amid Environmental Crisis A guerrilla gardener has installed a pop-up wetland in the Los Angeles River, a move that could provide immediate relief to the city's struggling waterway. Artist Doug Rosenberg led a group of volunteers to the site, where they created a makeshift wetland using natural materials. The emergency wetland is expected to trap sediment and kickstart a micro-bloom of eco-friendly growth, reversing decades of pollution and neglect. Rosenberg's initiative comes as the LA River faces a severe environmental crisis, with trash and debris clogging its waters. The LA River has been a concrete-lined storm drain for nearly a century, but Rosenberg's project aims to reclaim its natural potential. He discovered the river's hidden potential in 2020, when he spotted a shopping cart blooming with greenery and attracting wildlife. The current status of the wetland is unclear, but Rosenberg and his team plan to monitor its progress and expand the project in the coming weeks.
