An interesting web site for our members. River Action is a UK-based environmental campaigning body committed to addressing the severe problem of river pollution. Rivers are facing an existential crisis. An overwhelming body of recent evidence confirms that virtually all of the UK’s rivers are polluted beyond legal limits – with many facing severe environmental challenges. Along with sewage discharges from the water companies, run offs from intensive agriculture is widely acknowledged as one of the principal causes of this crisis.
Why is it that nobody ever mentions the worst pollutant in our rivers,ETHINYL ESTRADIOL,no doubt the large pharmaceutical companies want to keep it as quiet as possible.I understand that levels are so high in some rivers,that the fish ,in these rivers,have been found to be hermaphrodite.
