URGENT HELP NEEDED: Wales is now the only part of Britain to have not placed restrictions on grouse moors burning carbon-rich peatlands. RT if you agree @Lesley4Wrexham should implement a ban to protect nature and the climate.

A bit grim in the River Bollin at #Macclesfield this morning. Whatever toxic waste has been dumped in there has killed all the fish. #StormHour

"Southern Water discharged 'five MONTHS' worth of raw sewage at bathing beaches in the first eight days of November." Fined £93,464,000 since 2010 for breaking environment law. Fines are clearly no deterrent. We must make directors personally liable. dailymail.co.uk/news/article…

As long as companies like @McDonalds are removing urban trees and replacing them with plastic grass we’re screwed. We’ve got to stop doing this. @WoodlandTrust

Just heard the CE of @Ofwat on @BBCr4today not saying anything . Asked why sewage leaks had been allowed to continue - he didn’t answer . Asked when they would stop - he didn’t answer . No accountability . A mute regulator that hasn’t regulated . @Feargal_Sharkey @GreenJennyJones

How about we *and* the French just agree to stop bottom trawling altogether, both of us, knowing as we do that it trashes marine ecosystems and releases vast amounts of carbon to the atmosphere? 🤷‍♂️ bbc.com/news/uk-politics-591…

104 days after been fined £90m for dumping sewage into the environment and less than 12 hours after Gov voted to protect water companies and not our rivers, @SouthernWater were dumping sewage at 60, yes 60, different locations along the south coast of England. #COP26 hypocrisy

Maybe @craig4monty should watch this, along with all the other MPs who voted to allow sewerage to be discharged into our rivers and seas.
