“A drought has officially been declared across vast swathes of England. Rivers and reservoirs are evaporating in front of our eyes. Water may soon be rationed and crop irrigation restricted. Drought, and the extreme heat that exacerbates it, isn’t some occasional freak occurrence that can be brushed off as “super scorchio” fun once or twice a year. It’s a consequence of years of inaction on the climate emergency. This is producing a perfect storm of energy insecurity, food supply chaos and extreme weather that is wreaking havoc on society.”
A searing criticism of the privatisation of the water industry, the impact on the environment and our society and the complete inaction from our pathetic Government from the brilliant Caroline Lucas, the only Green Party MP in the UK Parliament ....
