I regularly go to the Wye to fish but it is regularly polluted and has significant losses of fish.
Investigations into the causes of the pollution are often half hearted and prosecutions, if they happen, result in very low fines.
As a Country we do not value our open spaces and wildlife as can be seen by the disgraceful littering that that took place in picnic spots following the lifting of Covid restrictions.
We live about 6 miles from a 24 hour Macdonald's, which give just enough time for people to consume their food before throwing their waste out of the car window.
