Tonight on @BBCSouthToday @BBCSouthNews hundreds of thousands of litres of untreated wastewater and sewerage pouring in to the Beaulieu River (again) . It’s the @NewForestNPA and one of the most environmentally protected rivers in the UK and it’s full of . . .
So great to be involved with this reporting, and to see momentum growing. Thanks @BBCBreakfast for shining a light on this issue!
Three major water companies illegally discharged sewage hundreds of times last year on days when it was not raining, according to a BBC investigation.
Environment correspondent Jonah Fisher had more details on #BBCBreakfast

50+ chemicals discovered in water off Hampshire and West Sussex coasts. Great to see results from @portsmouthuni & @Bruneluni coming in from the samples we took last year. Thanks @DrAlexFord & @The_ShrimpGuy for all your hard work so far! port.ac.uk/news-events-and-b…

The result of all this hard work by teams from @portsmouthuni @Bruneluni and many dedicated volunteers from @CleanHarbours is released today.
This photo of me with @bbcsoutheast gives you an idea of size of the Budds Farm No.2 storm water overflow (2x2m) which has discharged massive quantities of sewage and chemicals into protected marine habitats #EndSewagePollution photos @pearsallphoto & @CleanHarbours

Where do we work? We focus on pollution Langstone and Chichester, extending over 15,000 acres around Hayling Island on the south coast. Waterside villages include Bosham, Emsworth, Itchenor, Dell Quay, Hayling and West Wittering.

We want to understand the risks and bring polluters to account. A study under the guidance of @DrAlexFord at @portsmouthuni; Dr Thomas Miller @Bruneluni; and Prof Peter Hammond @watervole3 from @WindrushWasp will shed light on 'What's really in the water'

CHP is a collaboration of local interest groups, formed in response to local outcry and concern about pollution in Chichester & Langstone Harbours. We are scientifically investigating “what’s in our harbour water”. cleanharbourspartnership.co.… #sewage #waterquality
We were sent these pics of raw sewage overflowing from a manhole cover in Bosham (16th January). Spot the loo roll and a tampon escaped from the drain. Almost impossible for the families, dogs and walkers using the harbour to avoid. #sewage #sewagepollution #waterquality

Port Meadow on the Thames - the newly designated bathing place where Oxford Uni Wild Swimmers are unable to go in the water due to untreated sewage. #pollution for profit has been ranked before people and planet and that has to change. @Feargal_Sharkey @OxfordStudents
Have you checked out @thameswater's new EDM map tool, showing near real-time information about storm overflow activity? Today is not a day for a paddle, our poo(r) rivers! thameswater.co.uk/edm-map
