A rich country like England have their people swimming in, showering and drinking their own filt from taps. How a third world paradise like Jamaica not having the nation swimming, shower or drink their own filt? This is disgraceful .

Gud example for other big cities

[@solitary-sun]

It's been a growing issue in the UK for a long time. It's illegal for water companies to dump raw sewage into natural rivers except during emergencies. The problem is the water companies declare an emergency on a weekly basis and the rivers stink. Our government isn't budging because we don't have an alternative without huge spending. These changes will likely only happen in big cities and tourist destinations but the more natural places will still suffer.

The UK govt has enhanced legal means of flushing sewage into UK rivers.

I thought this only happened in India.

Most major Cities in the developed world currently have storm sewage problems, mainly due to rapid population growth and the age of many of the sewage systems. They were built for cities that were much smaller at the time of building

so you can get sucked into a massive drain now and sucked into a giant pipe that is pitch black in murky water if u fall in
