The cyanide spill that closed a canal, water guzzling golf courses PLUS the UK-EU chemical policy chasm

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.For this week’s big green news, the team finds out about the Walsall chemical spill and the thousands of litres of toxic waste that’s leaked into the town’s canal.We also learn about the golf courses in the firing line for over abstraction during the hottest year on record.And the news-in-brief: Labour drops legal action against a sign-wielding climate activist, provisional fees for extended producer responsibility have at long last been published by the government, and the Net Zero Teesside legal action has been thrown out by the courts, why?For this week’s deep-dive, the ECO Chamber speaks to Ben Reynolds, the executive director of the Institute for European Environmental Policy UK about policy divergences and chemicals between the UK and the EU.
