Here's a sewer overflow by the Thames in Kew. It doesn't have a monitor or a permit. It does discharge sewage to the river though. Just one of Thames Water's 246 illegal outfalls. It won't be connected to the Tideway Tunnel either, it's too far west. 1/2
I was at the River Wye this week - totally unacceptable that chicken farming is being allowed to pollute our rivers like this. Whether it's animal factory farming or water companies pumping sewage into our waters - this is the effect of "cutting red tape" & deregulation.
Appalling scenes coming in today from River Wye catchment 😥 Topsoil from fields left bare to autumn/winter storms - laden with nutrients from dumped manure by valley’s massive intensive 🐓 industry - just freely running off into the river system. How to destroy an ecosystem 😖

Residents in Southall, a deprived area, are negatively affected by #airpollution from various sources. Ealing Council's air quality monitoring fund, did not allocate automatic air quality monitoring to schools in Southall's Air Quality Focus Area. ncas.ac.uk/deprived-commu…
HUGE sewage discharge into the River Brent in Ealing. Over 15 hours and still dumping! The Brent feeds into the Thames. This is one of the longest discharges I have seen in London from Thames Water. Absolutely disgusting.
There is no 'doing your part to lower emissions' until there is an equitable approach taken to industrial polluters responsible for a host of VOCs, carcinogens, heavy metals, and other particulates. You can discover more at @RightToKnowUK 👉🏾 right-to-know.org/pollutant-site…
Known sites responsible for point source #airpollution: ➡️Prestige Kitchens &Bedrooms ➡️Tarmac Ltd ➡️FM Conway Ltd ➡️The Green Quarter ➡️Sam's Recycling ➡️Dave's Kitchens & Bedrooms @Hillingdon @EalingCouncil have failed to tell us what they are doing to protect health.

BREAKING: Chemical companies such as Dupont and 3M have been lying to the public for decades about "forever chemicals" in drinking water that have poisoned an estimated 200 million people. Will these companies and their CEOs ever be indicted? @LeverNews levernews.com/forever-chemic…
A strong burning stench was evident at 7.00pm today along Scotts Road from Sam's Recycling on Johnson Street in #Southall. A burning chest is the result but residents are slowly dying because Sam's Recycling is allowed to burn carcinogenic plastic. @ealingcouncil. #AirPollution

Which emits more carbon dioxide: volcanoes or human activities?
Human activities emit 60 or more times the amount of carbon dioxide released by volcanoes each year.

This is a great platform to engage with the data that underpins the story of our water being destroyed by the entrenched right to pollute.
for more information on the sewage crisis in your local area you can check top-of-the-poops.org you can find your local constituency, beach, river or shellfish area.
Great reporting from @guardian shedding light on an insidious #fossilfuel scheme to discredit our Cancer Alley activists & partners @DSCEJ @project_descend + others fighting sky high cancer rates, #environmentalracism, and corporate greed. theguardian.com/environment/20…
I suppose we shouldn't be surprised, but this is still very alarming: colnevalleypark.org.uk/analysis-finds… Any thoughts @Feargal_Sharkey @highamnews ?
"...informal neighborhoods face environmental and social challenges that harm people’s health, affecting the poorest and most marginalized communities the hardest." @sabahusmani for @EHNewsroom buff.ly/43FAVj9
