Where in Europe is tap water the most and least safe?
Water purity varies across Europe, with Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg and the Czech Republic having some of the most polluted groundwater on the continent.
Groundwater is one of the most critically endangered resources across the EU.

Reading up on #Wellington #Water #Works, it seems that
Rates are going down by a whopping $10-$15 a week
Water rates are coming in at about $50/week.
A 30%~ish raise in rates for everyone, despite promises of no extreme increases

❗️‘Water as a weapon’: MSF says Israel systematically depriving Gaza of access
Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said Israeli authorities are systematically depriving Palestinians in Gaza of water, calling it an “integral part of Israel’s genocide” through infrastructure destruction and restricted access, according to a 28 April report.
In Water as a Weapon, MSF said the “engineered scarcity” comes alongside “direct killing of civilians” and the devastation of homes and health facilities.
“Israeli authorities know that without water, life ends,” MSF’s Claire San Filippo said. “Yet they have deliberately and systematically obliterated water infrastructure … whilst consistently blocking water-related supplies.”
The report cites UN, EU, and World Bank data showing nearly 90 percent of water infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, while aid access remains restricted and civilians face growing disease risks. #eau #gaza #noWaterInGaza #water #freePalestine #palestine @palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@tagpush.app @gazanotice@mastodon.neometropolis.net

Platypuses need threatened species recognition in NSW, researcher says
"The species was only "hanging on, not thriving" in NSW and the Murray-Darling Basin."
"There's no state or national monitoring framework for platypuses...Dr Bino said platypuses had survived Australia's natural cycles for millions of years, but were now struggling to adapt to human-driven changes. We've been disrupting the natural flow regime and fragmenting and isolating platypus populations."
"Platypus are pretty much wiped out from the mainland in South Australia. They used to occur all along the Murray but that's no longer the case." >>

Governments failed to deliver $160m of river improvements including for now-parched NSW wetlands, report finds
“Quite simply the environment is the loser along with the taxpayer...The failure to implement what was promised means that turtles, fish and wetlands die.”
The Greens environment spokesperson, Sarah Hanson-Young, said the report “makes it abundantly clear that despite millions of dollars being splashed around, it has not gone to protecting the river”. >>

Farmers, scientists aim to manage risks of nitrogen fertilizer
Researchers at the University of Regina and the University of Saskatchewan tested the urea fertilizer, which helps feed two-thirds of the global population. After adding it to farm ponds, they found the product degraded water quality and is a widespread threat to freshwater sources.

WaterNSW criticised for ‘appalling’ decision after hundreds of turtles left to die in wetlands
"Environmental flows refer to water released by the government from dams and tributaries into rivers and ecosystems to restore their health. The Gingham watercourse is home to three turtle species, the broad-shelled turtle, the Murray River turtle and the eastern long-necked turtle."
"Cutmore said she was “not happy with what’s gone down” and was concerned irrigators were “calling the shots over and over”.

"Tests of intelligence and brain function showed the same results whether or not people drank fluoridated water growing up, a highly anticipated, long-term study found.
The new research, published Monday in the respected Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is the first to measure community water fluoridation exposure during childhood in the U.S. and any potential impact on cognition up to age 80."
