Drought, pollution, floods: Avon in Devon tells story of UK rivers in distress
A journey down the waterway in an area of outstanding natural beauty highlights troubles facing UK rivers.
The river Avon rises from a boggy wilderness. It rushes over granite slabs and waterfalls down rocks, pooling alongside small oaks amid the coconut tang of yellow gorse, before picking up pace once more.
Twenty-three miles downstream its brackish flow swooshes at pace into a steep-sided estuary where paddleboarders ride the tidal motion and surfers run into the swell of Bigbury Bay.
On its journey from the highest reaches of south Dartmoor in Devon, the River Avon plays host to egrets and herons, entertains anglers seeking brown trout and salmon, offers open water for swimmers and lays out its banks for paddling children and picnicking hikers.
Over the last few years the UK's rivers have been gripped by a deepening crisis, with a chemical cocktail of sewage, agricultural waste and other pollution suffocating biodiversity and risking public health.
The Avon fails water quality tests that measure how close it is to its natural state. It suffers from pollution, high phosphate levels, low flows, high temperatures, flash floods, drought and obstructions to its natural movement.

NEWS - NASA zeigt Rückgang des Wasserstands im Lake Mead über 20 Jahre, Arizona, USA

The detailed images below include a view from Landsat 8 taken on July 8, 2021 (middle). The light-colored fringes along the shorelines of Lake Mead in 2021 and 2022 are mineralized areas of the lakeshore that were formerly underwater when the reservoir was filled closer to capacity. The phenomenon is often referred to as a "bathtub ring." As of July 18, 2022, Lake Mead was filled to just 27 percent of capacity. The largest reservoir in the United States supplies water to millions of people across seven states, tribal lands, and northern Mexico. It now also provides a stark illustration of climate change and a long-term drought that may be the worst in the U.S. West in 12 centuries.

WarWilding: a new word to describe the startling effects of using nature as a weapon.
From defensive flooding to buffer zones, using the natural world in conflict is as old as war itself - now academics have given it a name.
During the early days of the Russia-Ukraine war, the invading force was approaching the Irpin River and the gates of the Ukrainian capital. But the river waters suddenly rose, forcing the Russians to turn back and leaving a trail of abandoned tanks and military hardware. Kyiv breathed again and a wetland ecosystem was reflooded for the first time in more than 70 years.
The Ukrainian army reflooded the dying Irpin River and its former wetlands to save the Ukrainian capital.
"That's warWilding," says Jasper Humphreys, director of programmes for the Marjan Study Group in the department of war studies at King’s College London, which researches conflict and the environment.
Biodiversity hotspots: Craters formed by Russian shells dot the floodplains of the Irpin between the villages of Moschun and Rakivka.
The Ukrainian army’s flooding of the river Irpin at the start of Russian invasion of Ukraine has created the ideal conditions for a successful warWilding legacy.

But the river waters suddenly rose, forcing the Russians to turn back and leaving a trail of abandoned tanks and military hardware. Kyiv breathed again and a wetland ecosystem was reflooded for the first time in more than 70 years.
The Ukrainian army reflooded the dying Irpin River and its former wetlands to save the Ukrainian capital.
"That's warWilding," says Jasper Humphreys, director of programmes for the Marjan Study Group in the department of war studies at King’s College London, which researches conflict and the environment.

WarWilding: a new word to describe the startling effects of using nature as a weapon.
From defensive flooding to buffer zones, using the natural world in conflict is as old as war itself - now academics have given it a name.
During the early days of the Russia-Ukraine war, the invading force was approaching the Irpin River and the gates of the Ukrainian capital. But the river waters suddenly rose, forcing the Russians to turn back and leaving a trail of abandoned tanks and military hardware. Kyiv breathed again and a wetland ecosystem was reflooded for the first time in more than 70 years.

Mandatory Credit: Photo by Ken Cedeno/UPI/Shutterstock (12987550a)
A view of the infamous Watergate Hotel ahead of the 50th anniversary in Washington, DC on Wednesday, June 15, 2022. Five burglars -- James McCord, Virgilio González, Bernard Barker, Eugenio Martínez and Frank Sturgis -- forced their way into the Watergate complex and DNC offices around midnight on the 16th to replace failing bugging equipment that had been installed there two weeks earlier. The goal was to eavesdrop on the Democrats and collect information that could be used against the party for political purposes.

Why I live in Stoke Newington: art consultant Georgia Spray on her creative, family-friendly London neighbourhood
Georgia Spray runs online art platform Partnership Editions. Here's why she loves her east London areaÕs creative local community.
I've lived in Stoke Newington for five years. I moved to a house just off Newington Green about a year ago with my husband and one-year-old daughter.
It's such a creative community, there are so many artists I work with who have studios in this area. Partnership Editions studio is a five-minute cycle from my house, part of a complex of independent businesses, so it's got a real independent, creative hub feel.
