    The Citarum River in Indonesia suffers from severe water pollution caused by untreated waste disposal. This pollution has led to skin infections in humans and an abundance of trash and dead animals floating in the river. The heavy metal levels in the river are above international averages, contaminating rice crops and fish catches. Efforts to clean the heavily polluted river include reforesting surrounding mountains to combat soil erosion, extracting toxic sediments with excavators, prohibiting factory wastewater discharges without treatment, and environmental education projects.
