RIVER WEAR. Over 17 dead fish have been reported so far at Durham due to river pollution. Not to mention what else may be laid up dead. Another river at the mercy. Reports I'm hearing is pollution. #pollution #environment #rivers

We see sewage discharges from the river bank, don't really witness the destruction underwater while sewage is entering a river. Grim and apparently has no impact? It is also said it is 95% rainwater? this is a typical discharge into a river #sewage #pollution #environment #rivers

If we could channel the same amount of disgust/energy into rivers as we have the dreadful act of vandalism at sycamore gap? Both are/was equally important.

Just think the money you are paying yorkshire water to treat sewage is in effect being used to poison our precious rivers and the life that lives within them. What chance do they stand in this heat and low flows. #sewage #pollution #rivers #environment

Linton beck flowing in to the river wharfe, in 50 years I've never seen it flow bright green. No idea what's caused it but any of the little fish have all gone. Natural? No idea, in connection with pollution? Again no idea. Certainly not going to guess. #freshwater #rivers
