One cannot deliver real change without the other.

NO new fossil fuel licenses.
NO fossil fuel investments.
END all fossil fuel subsidies.
END fossil fuel single-use plastic.
REDUCE all fossil fuel plastic production.

High water bills, filthy rivers – and now drought. This is England's great artificial water crisis of 2025 | George Monbiot In its refusal to nationalise water, it’s clear the government operates in the interests of private capital and not of the country, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Last week I wrote about yet another of the disastrous outcomes of privatisation. If there's one thing almost everyone in England wants, it's renationalisation of water. But no, we can't have nice things. Just more shit. Literally in this case.

The sources are everywhere: synthetic clothing releases fibers when washed, plastic packaging breaks down over time, and tyre wear creates particles that become airborne. Even that reusable plastic water bottle sitting on your desk is slowly shedding microscopic particles into the air around you.
