Ecological restoration plays a critical role in repairing and revitalizing ecosystems damaged
by industrial activities. Post-industrial landscapes, often characterized by degradation,
contamination, and loss of biodiversity, present significant challenges for restoration. This
paper explores the methods used in ecological restoration in these environments and the
various challenges faced. It reviews current restoration strategies, including bioremediation,
reforestation, and the use of native plant species, while examining the obstacles posed by
pollution, land use history, and climate change. By assessing both successes and limitations,
this paper offers insights into effective restoration practices and the future of post-industrial
landscape recovery.
