Dirty Business: The sewage drama that gives water industry the Post Office scandal treatment

On this week’s ECO Chamber, special guest Jo Morley – the head of campaigns and advocacy at Surfers Against Sewage – joins podcast host James Agyepong-Parsons and ENDS Report’s senior reporter, Shosha Adie, to discuss the new docuseries on sewage pollution.

Last year, 124,717 hours of sewage poured into England’s bathing waters with 1,236 people reporting sickness after using the water. Can greater public awareness change this?

The team also discusses why campaigners River Action applied for a judicial review against watchdog Natural Resources Wales’ decision to approve the expansion of three intensive poultry units in Powys.

Plus, the UK’s biggest onshore wind farm in a decade has moved one step closer to creation, Scotland’s largest salmon farm has been given the green light in a protected nature area, and the hundreds of seabirds have washed up on England’s coastlines.

The ECO Chamber is brought to you by journalists at ENDS Report.
