The Problem

In September 2020 the Environment Agency released figures that show that every UK monitored surface water body failed standards for chemical pollution.

None of them were given an overall clean bill of health, however this is not only a 1st world UK problem as it's seen across the globe in varying degrees of severity.

Water quality affects our crops, our wildlife, the nature sites we love to visit, our water bills and so much more.

Change starts with us all, and we need to reduce the amount of chemically toxic products from entering our waterways and public sewers.

Collectively we really can make a difference.

“ English river quality is the worst in Europe” -  

Dr Janina Gray, head of science and policy at salmon and trout conservation. 

“We need to go further and faster on reducing the environmental impact from storm overflows and other sources of pollution including chemicals and agriculture” - Rebecca Pow, Environment Minister .
