Highways from hell: how toxic run-off from roads is poisoning our waterways
Manage episode 438136826 series 3307803
Every week, the ENDS team enters the ECO Chamber to discuss the UK’s biggest green news stories, and take a forensic look at one of the deep-rooted environmental issues facing us today.
In this week’s episode the team discusses:
- Labour's plan to eradicate bovine TB through the use of badger and cattle vaccines and also the planned five-year badger cull still ahead.
- Why the new government has ditched its legal defence of North Sea oil and gas field consents.
For the news-in-brief: Natural England has received just three applications for biodiversity net gain credits in the scheme’s first six months, Drax pays £25m after an Ofgem probe finds data governance failures, and conservationists have launched a judicial review to reduce livestock grazing on Dartmoor, why?
And finally, in this week’s deep-dive, the team speaks to Jo Bradley of Stormwater Shepherds on toxic road run-off, the ecological poisoning of our wildlife and the poorly devised monitoring regimes that govern the fallout from our motorways.
