@sambentley: This swimming pool doesn't use chemicals to stay clean, it uses nature instead! They’re called natural pools, and instead of chlorine, they use plants and good bacteria to keep the water clean. Next to the swimming area, there's a zone that acts like a mini-wetland, where water filters through gravel, plants and beneficial microbes that remove nutrients and pathogens, stopping algae and harmful bacteria from growing. A small pump also helps keep the water moving and clears out any leaves or debris. This is great for both humans and wildlife! Swimming in chemical-free, naturally filtered water protects the beneficial bacteria on our skin, and avoids the harsh effects of chlorine. Whilst the wetland habitat supports local biodiversity, attracting insects, birds, frogs, and other land and water species. Would you like to see more natural pools in your area? #goodnews #swimming #nature #sustainableliving #cleanwater #naturalpool
