It's easy to dispose of our waste into the water when no one is watching which is to the detriment of the creature in the water.
That's sad but true. It's one of the reasons why I think it's important to educate people about these things.
Knock on wood! I have never fallen into the canals, but other boaters keep saying "not yet". Therefore, I think boaters identify that the canal waters are naturally polluted and try not to contribute further.
The canals are policed by the Canal and River Trust to ensure that boaters do the right things:)
Yeah, I was lucky today 😊😁
