A
event
on Tuesday 6th February. The event starts at 19:30.
We discuss the national shame that is the state of Britain’s rivers. Nobody is going to take a few gulps when wild swimming. Our rivers are overwhelmed with human waste and factory farm runoff, it’s killing them. We talk about why it’s happened and what we can do to turn it around and explore the limits of the existing systems.
OUR PANELISTS:
RUDY MILLARD: our Altered State host. Rudy will moderate the talk and take questions to the panel at the end.
He will be joined by:
WILL McBAIN: Water Environment Leader at global consulting firm, Arup
SIMON EVANS: CEO of the Wye and Usk Foundation
CHARLOTTE HITCHMOUGH: CEO at Action for the River Kennet and Trustee of the Rivers Trust
