Raw sewage
Raw sewage overflowing from an access cover (manhole) for a public sewer, in Oxfordshire, UK. The sewage is flowing down a footpath to reach a chalk stream (not seen). This pollution is a threat to the ecology of the stream, being toxic to the fish, waterfowl and other wildlife and plants. Such overflows have to be reported to the UK Environment Agency. This overflow was caused by tree roots that broke into the sewer pipe further downstream. Urban expansion has led to problems with the maintenance of old sewer pipes and drainage systems.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a distressing scene in Oxfordshire, UK. Raw sewage is seen overflowing from an access cover, or manhole, for a public sewer. The sewage flows down a footpath towards a hidden chalk stream, posing a grave threat to the delicate ecology of the waterway. Fish, waterfowl, and other wildlife and plants are at risk due to the toxic nature of this pollution. Instances like these must be reported to the UK Environment Agency as they highlight serious issues with our urban infrastructure. In this case, tree roots have broken into the sewer pipe downstream causing this unfortunate overflow. With rapid urban expansion comes challenges in maintaining old sewer pipes and drainage systems. The image serves as a stark reminder of how industrial development can lead to environmental degradation if not properly managed. Water pollution caused by such overflows has become an alarming concern in 21st-century society. It is crucial that we address these contamination issues promptly and implement effective solutions to protect our rivers, streams, and drains from further harm. The responsibility lies with both individuals and organizations involved in urban planning and maintenance of sewerage systems. Science Photo Library brings attention to this pressing matter through their thought-provoking imagery while emphasizing the importance of preserving our environment for future generations.
