As per a request from @ec1bathrooms check out Parts 1 to 3 of Frankie's (not quite so new) adventure. Set in a world where a mysterious virus means no humans are at work, Frankie the flamingo and Clarence the crab meet Eric the frog. Wot? Eric? The frog ? ech2o.co.uk/the-mysterious-c…

Did Cath really try to set her school on fire? And if so, how does that fit into a shower blog? ech2o.co.uk/spril-2024-setti…

Second this thought on World Water Day
Make it equal: Share water fetching between women and men, girls and boys. Let’s get #Goal6 on track! #WorldWaterDay #WaterAction buff.ly/3I9evgA

Nice set of photos for International Women's Day
International Women’s Day is about celebrating the achievements of women and advocating for a gender-equal world – and we’re ready to #InspireInclusion in the water industry! We’ve committed to increasing our female retention and employing more women at Thames Water. #IWD2024

When schools have safe water, toilets, and soap for handwashing, children have a healthy learning environment, and girls are more likely to attend school when they're on their period. This #EducationDay, we must ensure that young people can exercise their right to education.

Beautiful!
A pool from the Roman Period. Tunisia

Quite an increase. Especially as loos using far more per flush back then. And mostly baths to get clean. We had one bath a week in winter and twice a week in summer. Now a short shower every day.
DYK we use 60% more water now than we did in the 60s? Why? A lot of it is around lifestyle - longer & more frequent showers, leaky loos, more swimming pools/hot tubs in homes... and ice baths🥶! To find out how you can save water, head to waterwise.org.uk/savewater #Pledge2024

Stunning photography of plankton. But also of plastic microfibres in thier habitat. Shocking
The saddest compilation video I have ever made. But perhaps also the most positive if it causes a reduction in plastic pollution in 2024. In once pristine seas, every nearshore plankton sample I now collect contains plastic microfibers. (Sound On) @zeiss_micro

Impressive work here by Bradley the beaver! Has learnt from his previous mistake when his rather too successful dam had to be dismantled by Frankie the flamingo! ech2o.co.uk/the-mysterious-c…

Sobering statistics re flood defences.
Replying to @DaveThroup
It’s not surprising then that flood defences built to cope with 1 in 100 year floods are struggling. Keswick defences were built in 2012 were overtopped by a metre in 2015. Brechin flood defences completed in 2015 to defend against a 1 in 200 year flood were overtopped in 2023

We have just seven years left to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6) – safe toilets and water for all by 2030. A toilet is small but mighty – just like a hummingbird, but a hummingbird is prettier than most toilets!
