Britain's Rivers in Crisis with Graham Roberts

Something a little different from the norm today. Graham Roberts, a retired ecologist, discusses the critical state of England's rivers and the various factors contributing to their decline. He highlights the pollution from agricultural runoff and sewage discharge, the challenges posed by privatization and inadequate regulation, and the urgent need for community engagement and activism to address these issues. Graham emphasises the importance of personal responsibility in water conservation and the potential for positive change if society collectively prioritizes environmental stewardship.River Lim Action GroupRiver Lim Action on FacebookRiver [email protected] @thegavelandthegabbleTwitter @GavelandGabble TikTok @laughingauctioneerwww.windsorauctions.co.ukwww.lymebayauctions.co.ukABOUT THE PODCAST The Gavel and The Gabble is a podcast hosted by Harry and Simon who, together, are lucky enough to run two provincial Auction Houses in Windsor, Berkshire and Seaton, Devon.Now we know there are lots of TV shows about buying and selling antiques and collectables but we thought followers of this podcast would like to hear about what goes on behind the scenes of an actual working auction house as we go about our daily business, the characters we meet, the things we find, and the things we wished we had never found.Famed for our slightly different auctioneering style, constant chatting on the rostrum, awful jokes. Stick with us as we bunk off to record anecdotes, interview others in the industry and basically gabble on. If you enjoy the podcast, please leave us a rating. Music from LemonmusicstudioProduction by David Burd Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
