If you’re not already doing so, give Fighting Dirty a follow. This is the organisation set up by myself George Monbiot & @ Georgia Elliott-Smith to use the law to prevent pollution and hold the government to account.

Your support (and likes, shares and donations) is really appreciated

The regulations around microplastics and toxic chemicals in sewage sludge haven't been updated since the 1980s. If you, like us (George Monbiot Georgia Elliott-Smith Steve Hyndside), agree this needs to change then please support our legal challenge crowdjustice.com/case/fighting-…

Just had a fascinating chat w Prof Roger Klein, global #PFAS expert. He says when sewage works filter waste, they leave behind long chain PFAS - the most toxic kind - in the sludge. It's then sold to farmers to use on food crops. Help us change the rules crowdjustice.com/case/fighting-…

Such legal action doesn’t come cheaply. If you can chip in a few quid from the back of the sofa it would be greatly appreciated crowdjustice.com/case/fighting-…

Today myself, Georgia Elliott-Smith and George Monbiot have launched legal action about the lack of testing for microplastics and other toxins in sludge spread directly over farm land - read more here independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/…

We've launched a new legal campaign called Fighting Dirty - Fighting Dirty - against lethal forms of pollution. Our first focus is on a greatly neglected but enormous scandal: the unregulated dumping of a wide range of toxins on farmland. Please support us if you can. Thanks.
