    Discharge of sewage into the river Wharfe, had just started while i was there yet another example of how our river is abused, all flowing downstream. River is at normal levels too and not in flood. #sewage #pollution #environment #rivers

    28 years to stop sewage entering a river when there is heavy rain. Yet this is what a discharge is like in light rain on the river wharfe and they apparently call this progress. Its a dam insult in my eyes. #sewage #pollution #environment #rivers

    Welcome to England's rivers, this one being the soar. Nothing more than a public sewer. Well done to those ultimately responsible for this. You should be ashamed and jailed. #sewage #pollution #environment #rivers

    Every 10 yards on the River Witham at Boston dead rotting fish in the algae. What an absolute disgrace this is. Another example of how rivers are treated. SHAMEFUL #pollution #environment #rivers #freshwater

    Really is not that often you share the same space with a pike in excess of 30lb, when you do that first approach is critical, make or break and thankfully for me she allowed me to spend 5 minutes filming her before she glided of into the depths. #freshwaterfish #pike #nature

    What does a typical sewage discharge look like underwater just as it finishes. It is bad enough seeing it from the surface. Donned with scuba, full face mask, dry suit, dry gloves etc we found out. Grim absolutely grim. #sewage #pollution #environment #rivers #freshwater

    Sewage discharging into the wharfe. The sheer volume that is entering is shocking. Its impact on the river can be devastating. It takes one major pollution event to destroy a river for many years. #sewage #pollution #environment #rivers

    The graveyard of fish on the river calder after talking to many anglers they have mentioned there was a sewage discharge at Luddenden Foot earlier on in the week, the water was filthy and low. Connection? #pollution #rivers #environment

    Just to let folk know, sewage enters rivers in periods of no rain in fact no rain for days. And this is not just a one off. Understand we get discharges in non exceptional weather circumstances not just in heavy rainfall. This was filmed 01/02/21 #sewage #TorySewageParty

    The critically endangered European eel fighting for its life. They are part of one of natures greatest migrations. They deserve better. #sewage #environment #pollution #freshwaterfish

    River Hull today near Kingswood, Hull. apparently smelled even worse than it looks. Absolutely appalling. Welcome to rivers in 2022. Rivers are not there to be used as open sewers. #pollution #sewage #environment #freshwater

    From Addingham environment group. Sadly and outrageously this morning a Bradford Council contractor has been pumping concrete into the trout pool on Back Beck just downstream of Bridge 55 in a very much misguided attempt to shore up Back Beck Lane at that point. #freshwater
