The Comprehensive Spending Review: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

25th November 2020 by Henry Swithinbank

Last week the Prime Minister set out his Ten Point Plan for a green industrial revolution that would kick start the government’s mission to reach net zero. Whilst we welcomed this plan to reduce the UK’s carbon emissions by investing in renewable energy and restoring  nature and biodiversity, we were clear that without significantly more […]

Plastic Free Communities Rise to the Challenge

7th November 2020 by SAS

Plastic pollution is a problem that we at SAS are constantly waging war against, so news that a vessel had lost 11 shipping containers, some carrying plastic products, came as a devastating blow. On 20th October, HM Coastguard received a report from a vessel that 11 shipping containers (seven empty and four containing non-hazardous cargoes) […]

The Environment Bill: It’s Back

3rd November 2020 by Henry Swithinbank

The Environment Bill is finally back in parliament. But why does that matter? The Environment Bill is the new law that will set the groundwork for future environmental protection and natural restoration in England for decades to come. It will also set an example that Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are likely to follow. The […]

ASK YOUR MP TO PIPE UP TO #ENDSEWAGEPOLLUTION

26th October 2020 by Elsa Pullman

UPDATE: The second reading of The Sewage (Inland Waters) Bill has been delayed. With lockdowns in place across the UK , parliamentary time is being understandably devoted to  COVID-19. This just gives you more time to get in touch with your MP and demand they pipe up for rivers when the Bill returns. ************************************************ Over 40,000 of […]

Periods, Plastic and The Environment

20th October 2020 by Yasmin Edwards

  Period plastic is often missed out of the conversation on single-use plastics. We recently celebrated a massive campaign win; single-use plastic straws, stirrers and cotton buds have been banned in England! But, on Europe’s beaches, straws and stirrers are only the 7th most common single-use plastic items found; period products are 5th [1]. This isn’t […]
