ALT Unfortunately, it's still a dirty new year in Coventry. Dirty air, dirty water. We made the news in 2023. We're telling Coventry City Council we want change now. Now help us keep up the pressure until we win! Geoff Sallis will tell us how citizen scientists have fought back against catastrophic pollution of our rivers. On the River Wye, intense campaign pressure and citizen data have managed to get a moratorium on new chicken farms (dangerous pollution is caused by discharges of chicken excrement) and the Environment Agency has now significantly increased its spending and action on pollution in that river. It currently appears that the Warwickshire Avon is even more polluted than the Wye. A local team of volunteers plans to start monitoring on the Sowe, our local branch of the Avon. We know already that Finham Sewage Treatment Works on the Sowe breeds highly dangerous multi-drug-resistant bacteria every time it dumps raw sewage. Come to the talk and find out how you can help!
