We have had several inquiries about membership and this is very inspiring for us. Please see ipcp.ch if you would like to apply.

During the coming days, we will share some of the work we presented at the SETAC meeting. Stay tuned!

After years of convening IPCP board meetings virtually, we were thrilled to have the opportunity to gather face-to-face at  #SETACSeville . The experience was truly remarkable! Moreover, we were delighted to connect with both current and prospective members during the IPCP social.

Lots of overflows currently discharging sewage into Manchester’s rivers. Check out the online map here unitedutilities.com/better-rivers/… Interesting choice of blue by United Utilities to represent a sewage dump💩 Purple indicates a discharge in the last 24 hours.

Chemical #pollution is a problem as pervasive & complex to reverse as climate change.

CHEM Trust works to prevent this pollution in the EU, UK & globally.

We're seeking new Trustees with diverse experience & skills to increase our impact. More info here: buff.ly/3UC4IFC

Road runoff enters rivers directly at highway outfalls. It also goes into combined sewage systems via drains. When sewage is discharged into rivers, as well as human waste, it may contain arsenic, heavy metals & PAHs from roads. A double hit for wildlife.
