Rain we need it, In the press, on the radio and TV everyone is complaining about all the rain we are having. All I can say is we need it to rain every day to keep diluting all the disinfectant being dumped on the roads, paths, farm entrances and fields. Which of course is leaching into our streams and rivers.
Over the past two days I have made a survey of 38 farms entrances. At 21 of them straw was being covered with disinfectant these disinfectant barriers were next to cattle grids or small streams. Without all this rain we could lose the aquatic life in our rivers and streams. Perhaps a fish kill. We cannot trust MAFF , The Environment Agency and least of all the Government. I suggest where roads or bridges are close to your local river or stream you keep a watch for any signs of pollution.
Three weeks ago I sent a letter to MAFF about the dangers of burying animals, More so this year with high water tables. Now we read even more animals are to be buried in landfill sites, This could certainly turn into a major disaster. What will happen if the liquid from these animals as they break down enters the drinking water system Don't tell me it can't happen it already has done so in Durham. Now is the time to write to your MP and demand action to protect us the general public we have had enough the lies from the powers to be. Remember you cannot trust a politician
On the banks of the river Aire near Skipton we have a landfill site and one must ask the question, What idiot decided on putting a landfill site next to a river. This particular landfill site is leaking liquid into the river It was reported to the EA and the Government last July We are still waiting for a result and still the liquid flows into the river. I haven't seen any chub, pike, bream or trout for quite some distance down stream of this leakage since it started. Martin James.
