While the EU requires advanced treatment of urban wastewater, the UK has no legal obligation to monitor microplastics or antimicrobial residues.

If others have better protections, we should follow them.

Nitrates pollution & Ireland's derogation:

"To date, successive governments have utterly failed to engage properly with the farmers ... we can't continue to put our heads in the sand as water quality declines and farmers' businesses are hanging in the balance"

A discovery: Beavers in Norfolk improved water quality by 84% compared to nearby control sites. Their dams act as natural filters, helping restore one of England's rare chalk streams.
Could this be a game-changer ?

Could beavers really rescue Norfolk’s threatened chalk streams?
Norfolk’s river Glaven is one of our rare chalk streams, and the site of an interesting experiment in environmental restoration.

"Water should be life-giving, not life-threatening...With mounting scientific evidence of the health risks from nitrate, it’s time for Governments to end livestock expansion and phase out chemical fertilisers to ensure that 'safe and clean' water isn't a luxury, but a guarantee.”

A growing body of evidence suggests the EU's drinking water rules are failing to protect public health, as concentrations of nitrates well below the current limit have been linked to an increased risk of colorectal cancer

Continuing trajectory of iconic native Irish Salmon loss shouldn't be acceptable or inevitable:
'Nutrient pollution of surface waters must be addressed by robust policy decisions favouring the protection of water over sectoral interests'

"We know what must be done. Now we act, or
we accept our loss. You have the power to act, and I might say the responsibility to do so."

If you missed it, watch back John Murphy from @salmonwatchireland.bsky.social at Oireachtas Commitee on the massive decline of wild salmon in Ireland.

Groundbreaking research reveals nanoplastic levels in our water are 10–100x higher than estimated, with particles small enough to penetrate human cells. This is a critical call for systemic change for policy leaders and researchers.

Brantford implemented 4 new reverse osmosis units to help proactively address elevated nitrate levels in the Grand River. Could the Region of Waterloo's mismanagement of its purchased acreage in Wilmot contribute to poor🚰 quality?

Oregon is moving forward with a bill to protect beavers in certain waterways with the goal of enhancing water quality, trapping sediment, storing water, and enhancing habitat. HB 3932 just passed the House. #beavers #waterquality

🌊 New rules to tackle water pollution in Europe — PFAS, pharmaceuticals and microplastics are now in scope.
The @Europarl_EN has voted to strengthen EU water quality. Robust data is what makes policy like this possible.

🌍💊Antibiotics in Global Rivers: A Hidden Risk

A new study found 8,500 tonnes of antibiotics enter rivers each year from human use alone, threatening ecosystems and fuelling resistance – especially in Asia.

A single oyster filters up to 50 gallons of water a day. 🦪
We've lost nearly 99% of them in the Chesapeake - right as climate change floods our waters with more runoff and strips out oxygen.
Bringing oysters back is climate infrastructure.

As a result of recent rainfall, all Rock Creek sites, much of the Upper Potomac sites, and several Potomac sites failed to meet water quality standards for bacteria this week.
