Interesting talking to Nigel Farage on GB News tonight. England alone loses almost ONE TRILLION litres of water to leaks annually. We need new reservoirs AND enforcement to make water companies fix their pipes. Watch from 33:45: youtube.com/watch?v=GdYET4mA…

2026 has been a remarkable year for filming salmon parr in Yorkshire’s rivers. These young fish are at the very beginning of an extraordinary journey, one that will eventually take them from the rivers in which they were born to the wider world beyond. #Freshwaterfish #Salmon

Thames Water spent Β£2bn on fees in 18 months to stay private. Now it's asking its creditors for Β£2.4bn more. But it's customers who will pay the price via their water bills. If the deal goes ahead the average Thames Water bill will have risen from Β£488 to Β£672 while Labour has been in government. vist.ly/5pzts

We talk about trees absorbing CO2. We don't talk enough about trees REFLECTING the sun. It's called the ALBEDO effect. Forests bounce solar energy back to space, stopping Earth from overheating. Cut a tree, and you darken the Earth. Literally.

What they left out of Economics class: You cannot eat GDP. You cannot drink GDP. You cannot breathe GDP. You CAN live without endless GDP growth. You cannot live without a planet.

Our rivers cannot take any more pollution from industrial chicken farming. Enough is enough. Waterways Protection stands firmly behind River Action’s petition to stop #BigChicken choking our rivers. Chicken manure should be used responsibly as fertiliser, not left to poison our waterways. The poultry giants must take responsibility for their waste, rather than leaving our rivers, wildlife and communities to pay the price. We need action now, not more industrial expansion and more pollution. Nearly 100,000 people have signed. Let's push this over the line. Sign the petition. Share it. Make your voice heard. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitio… #RiverAction #WaterwaysProtection #BigChicken

Signed and shared. That manure should be used as free fertiliser for farmers further inland, not dumped in or around our rivers.

"This is our chance. We need to generate enough energy before the 29th to demand Andy Burnham step in and block the Thames Water bailout and take Thames Water into Special Admin." Our Outreach Lead @NwogboJohnbosco spoke at @arise_festival. This is his speech vist.ly/5pqpy

If your economic system requires: β€’ Burning the future for quarterly profits β€’ Extinction for convenience β€’ Poison for productivity It's not efficient. It's unethical.

Everything for sale. Australia investors buy 19UK ports, previously owned by investors from Canada, Singapore, Kuwait. City of London prefers speculation. Unlike many other countries, UK doesn't levy tax on dividends paid to foreign investors. archive.ph/oYm8k

A new tree takes 20-50 years to become a real carbon sink. An old tree is doing the work RIGHT NOW. The cheapest carbon capture device is not in a lab. It's in the forest.

A behind-the-scenes glimpse from the cutting-room floor of one of next year’s film projects. In fact, I currently have three projects in production. This particular sequence, capturing barbel as they prepare to spawn. #Barbel #Freshwaterfish #Underwater #Underwaterworld
