    “After decades of under-investment by greedy private water companies, the failure of the UK’s water supply is now the top threat to the UK, alongside a new pandemic.”

  6. Supreme Court battle over traditional owner consultation pauses flood works
    By Sarah Buchecker and Nethma Dandeniya

    The Victorian government and a regional water authority have admitted they did not property consult with traditional owners before approving a controversial flood plain restoration project.

  11. Who needs #BioLabs when there's all sorts of #bacteria about to be exposed after thousands of years!

    Researchers issue warning after making grim #Antarctic discovery: 'We are only beginning to understand'

    Story by Daysia Tolentino, January 29, 2026

    Excerpt: "A study published in the journal #Biocontaminant examined the effects of #GlacialMelting on our #WaterSupply.

    "#Glaciers serve as reservoirs for #AntibioticResistanceGenes, or #ARGs, and other #microbes. When they are released from the ice, they enter our water systems, posing a major health risk to people downstream.

    "Millions of people get their water from glacier-fed rivers and lakes. ARGs are strands of DNA that make bacteria more resistant to drugs. When ARGs in #meltwater make their way into our water supply, they become a global public health risk.

    "The study emphasizes the importance of viewing glaciers, rivers, and lakes as being part of a 'glacier continuum.' This means they are an interconnected system rather than separate environments.

    Why are melting glaciers concerning?

    "From our gas-powered cars to #overconsumption, human activity has contributed to the production of heat-trapping gases that warm the planet. Rising global temperatures have caused glaciers to rapidly melt, causing elevated sea levels and releasing ARGs.

    "ARGs from melting glaciers are worrisome because they help facilitate the spread of diseases. This threat is compounded by the fact that our growing #microplastic problem is also helping #AntibioticResistant #bacteria breed. As a result, #medicines are being rendered less effective."
