Highways from hell: how toxic run-off from roads is poisoning our waterways

  • Resumen

  • Every week, the ENDS team enters the ECO Chamber to discuss the UK’s biggest green news stories, and take a forensic look at one of the deep-rooted environmental issues facing us today.


    In this week’s episode the team discusses:


    • Labour's plan to eradicate bovine TB through the use of badger and cattle vaccines and also the planned five-year badger cull still ahead.
    • Why the new government has ditched its legal defence of North Sea oil and gas field consents.


    For the news-in-brief: Natural England has received just three applications for biodiversity net gain credits in the scheme’s first six months, Drax pays £25m after an Ofgem probe finds data governance failures, and conservationists have launched a judicial review to reduce livestock grazing on Dartmoor, why?


    And finally, in this week’s deep-dive, the team speaks to Jo Bradley of Stormwater Shepherds on toxic road run-off, the ecological poisoning of our wildlife and the poorly devised monitoring regimes that govern the fallout from our motorways.
