While you were sleeping govt published this. 👇👇👇 By 2050 we're going to need another 5 billion litres of water per day, 35% more than currently supplied, we don't have it nor the means to supply it. Now you know what 33 years of profiteering and regulatory failure looks like

Tomorrow is national sewage scandal day. Data expected to show 2023 as worst year for sewage dumping in era of monitoring with over 4 million hours of discharges — a whopping 129 % increase on 2022. This is systematic degradation of our precious rivers, lakes and coastal waters

Big bad news this - the Arctic permafrost region is now a net emitter of carbon, which is feeding the warming that itself has caused the permafrost to thaw - that’s a positive feedback loop we could do without. bit.ly/4cPReOG

Ofwat have completely failed to stop water companies polluting our lakes and rivers. Liberal Democrats are calling for a new regulator with the power to make sure the profits of these companies goes into fixing our sewage system, rather than stuffing the pockets of rich shareholders.

Reform UK plan tax cuts which they say will cost £70bn; however our analysis shows the actual cost will be at least £93bn. And their funding figures are out by £15bn+ All this means Reform UK have a total unfunded cost of at least £38bn - about two Liz Trusses.

I think the Environment Agency response to this is hilarious. Let’s just ignore the risk to human health shall we ? Let’s just ignore the decades of turning a blind eye by continuing to turn a blind eye. What was the risk to human health ? How seriously does the World Health Organization (WHO) take blue green
