Single-use wet wipes containing plastic end up in rivers & seas, eventually breaking down into microplastics that can enter the food chain. Companies must use alternatives, to stop contributing to the build up of plastics in the marine environment. inews.co.uk/news/politics/la…

Research out today from @CCWvoice. With 41% of customers in water stressed areas feeling that water is plentiful where they live, and 20% saying that they didn't know, it demonstrates that more work is needed to raise awareness of the reality of water resources in the UK.
2 out of 5 people in seriously water-stressed areas, such as London and the South East, think that water is plentiful where they live. Adapting to climate change means raising awareness of the pressing need to value water. #COP26 Read more here: orlo.uk/hbo1a
