So they want to cut a channel from the Thames into a clean lake that 30,000 people swim in every year that’s also a wildlife habitat.
The Thames water has been tested by Surfers Against Sewage, it has sewage pollution, metals and PFAS chemicals in it unsurprisingly.
An EA spokesperson said: “The River Thames scheme represents a landmark opportunity to manage flood risk while enhancing the environment for generations to come. Through integrating green infrastructure, we are committed to creating a sustainable solution that benefits both people and nature.”
Sorry what?
How is polluting a freshwater lake with shit and piss/bacteria and heavy metals enhancing the environment in a positive way for generations to come?
Clean water is arguably our most precious resource. Climate change and increasing rates of pollution mean that wars could very well be fought over something as simple as water. We should be investing billions into cleaning up all our rivers and lakes as best as possible, while directly fining those on the boards of water companies for the mess they have caused (i.e. fining the board members, not the water companies). We should even consider jail term for the most egregious offenders.
