Vast swathes of UK farm fields are spread with sewage sludge - a mix of human & industrial waste. We tested some, & found levels of PFAS & fire retardants that wouldn't be considered safe for use on allotments. Our article in the Guardian: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The ability to freely pollute rivers, lakes, estuaries and the air is fundamental to business model of the dairy industry. The panic you hear in this interview with the minister and the IFA is because they're losing that ability. www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

4,000+ water pollution incidents recorded since 2020 Director, James Orr said the figures are "not just depressing, but unforgivable...all our rivers & lakes are suffering, wildlife is collapsing yet there appears to be no leadership on this from the Executive and Minister Muir.." bit.ly/beltel4000

@amigasdelatierra.bsky.social demands the national government to ban animal factories in the country and promote a fair transition towards agroecological farming.

Today we’re in Bétera, Valencia  🇪🇸  with activists from across Europe, standing with locals suffering from the stench, noise & pollution of a nearby giant animal factory - More Holstein. Rural communities everywhere are rising up against this toxic food production model. Let’s back their fight!

Please take part in this short survey about The Ecological Crisis at Lough Neagh The aim is to better understand public awareness, perceptions of the crisis, and how people feel about the various efforts to address it – we really want to hear from you. Thank you bit.ly/LoughNeaghSu...

The gushing @Belfasttelegragh.co.uk business awards ceremony is now on. Northern Ireland’s most serial polluter NI Water has been nominated for three awards. So we gave them our own award… **Polluter of the Year** #beltelawards #polluteroftheyear @NIwater.bsky.social @saveloughneagh.com

Over 98% of our protected habitats are negatively impacted by high ammonia emissions. The latest consultation to address our ammonia crisis is so weak that even with a positive uptake, it would achieve very little, its flawed and we must demand better to protect our habitats. bit.ly/ammoniastrat...

Meaningless guff from agencies that are meant to protect Lough Neagh. What they don’t want you to know is that since the catastrophic blooms in 2023, the phosphorous levels have INCREASED. Wishful thinking & sombre words are no substitute for action. #Businessasusual www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"a bad day for the sustainable production of British meat" - if you count an aircraft-hanger's worth of chicken poop burdening the river catchment, causing algal blooms, filling the air with ammonia & aerosol particles as sustainable. www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2037...

Standing in solidarity with Save Our Sperrins and members of the Ipereğ Ayũ movement of the Munduruku people, outside the annual Environment Forum. Words of solidarity, commitment of the global campaigns against extractive industries and song were heard clearly, as delegates arrived.

Our 🇪🇸 friends @amigasdelatierra.bsky.social are helping a rural Galician community sue the authorities for letting animal factories pollute the #AsConchas water reservoir. Toxic nitrates, rising cancer risks & resident who can’t drink their water. It must stop. friendsoftheearth.eu/news/galicia...
