minus-squareChurbleyimyam@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·29 days agoAccording to this article: housing developments add to the problem with extra wastewater and sewage from new homes as well as run-off from construction sites. Pretty much everything people do is polluting now and wipes out the fish.
minus-squareHobbitFoot @thelemmy.clublinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·29 days agoYeah, but the current polluters don’t have a vested interest in fixing their problem to allow for new housing. A mandate to require new development to meet a standard on sewage would be more productive than an outright ban.
