How the Rhine was ruined?

For decades, industrial and domestic waste flowed untreated into the river and the Rhine was seriously polluted from the 1950s to the 1970s. Fish disappeared and it was dangerous to swim. In 1986 the river was severely polluted by a chemical factory fire and within 10 days the pollution had travelled the length of the Rhine and into the North Sea.
