  • The Monsanto Tribunal Is an International Civil Society Initiative to Hold Monsanto Accountable for Human Rights Violations, Fo
    The Monsanto Tribunal is an international civil society initiative to hold Monsanto accountable for human rights violations, for crimes against humanity, and for ecocide. Eminent judges will hear testimonies from victims, and deliver an advisory opinion following procedures of the International Court of Justice. A parallel People's Assembly provides the opportunity for social movements to rally and plan for the future we want. The Tribunal and People's Assembly will take place between 14 and 16 October 2016 in The Hague, Netherlands. Written testimony to the Judges of the Monsanto Tribunal The poisoning of our Nature Reserve by Roundup® and many independent scientific papers that confirm the losses of biodiversity globally It is almost impossible to describe in words the ten-year period since we first established our small nature reserve, so I have sent over two photo-journals for the Judges to examine: Speckled Bush Crickets and The Year of the Bumblebee. I quote from the first paragraph of my article published in the Institute of Science in Society in September 2014: How Roundup® poisoned my Nature Reserve. “In March 2006, UK’s Natural Environment Research Council announced the closure of its wildlife research centres, a decision opposed by 99% of 1,327 stakeholders. Monks Wood Centre, which hosted BBC’s Springwatch, pioneered work on DDT and pesticides in the 1960’s and more recently revealed how climate change is affecting wildlife, with spring arriving three weeks earlier. The research centres were also involved in assessing the impacts of GM (genetically modified) crops on wildlife, with findings contradicting industry claims that no harm would be caused.

  • Delivering Water Quality Objectives at Swansea Bay Through a Range of Asset Interventions Identified by Integrated Modelling
    Delivering Water Quality Objectives at Swansea Bay through a range of asset interventions identified by integrated modelling Session: 4 – Dealing with Water Quality Issues (Friday 6th November am) Authors and Presenters: Paul Taylor (Intertek) and Neil Campbell (Grontmij) Paul Taylor, Principal Consultant - e-mail: [email protected]; mob: 07943 812738; DD: 01428 728554 Neil Campbell, Operations Manager – e-mail: [email protected]; tel.DD 0117 332 1079 Introduction Revised Bathing Water Directive The revised European Union Bathing Water Directive (rBWD) (2006/07/EC) came into force at the start of this bathing season (May 2015), and fully repealed the previous BWD of 1976. The new legislation has introduced significantly tighter water quality standards causing a number of bathing waters to be at risk of not meeting the new minimum classification. The rBWD has four levels of classification: Excellent; Good; Sufficient; and Poor, and all designated bathing waters (BWs) are required to meet at least the Sufficient classification. The classifications are assessed using data collected during the current bathing season and the three preceding bathing seasons, making a four-year rolling assessment period providing approximately 80 samples (4 x 20 samples per year although 16 samples per year will be collected in Wales from 2015). The key aspect of these classifications is that they are assessed statistically over a four bathing-season period to generate a distribution from which the 90 and 95 percentiles (%iles) are determined. The magnitude of bacteria concentrations are therefore now an important component of bathing water performance -unlike the 1976 directive, where each sample taken either passed or exceeded the threshold.

  • Clyne Valley Country Park
    Report of the Gower AONB Team Leader Gower AONB Partnership Steering Group – 29 June 2020 Clyne Valley Country Park Clyne Valley Country Park - on the western fringe of the city - is one of the largest contiguous areas of land in the stewardship of Swansea Council (c.300+ha). Clyne Valley has multiple special features and assets, and is an area easily accessible to much of the city’s population. Clyne Valley became a Country Park in the late 1970s, following Council acquisition of the area and following the recommendations of a strategic planning study in 1978. The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1968 gives local authorities the power to provide Country Parks for the purposes of ‘providing, or improving, opportunities for the enjoyment of the countryside by the public’. Clyne Valley Country Park (CVCP) is also a Site of Interest for Nature Conservation (SINC), with significant areas of the following habitats: Broadleaved woodland (including areas of ancient woodland) Semi-natural grasslands that have not been agriculturally improved Permanent and ephemeral ponds Most of the Clyne River system and its tributaries Wet woodland in the adjacent Killay Marsh Local Nature Reserve (LNR) is owned by Swansea Council but leased and managed by the Wildlife Trust for South and West Wales. There is a huge range of species recorded in the area, including otter and a number of bat species roosting and foraging in the valley. The western side of the Country Park is within the Gower Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). On the eastern side of the valley, an extensive area above Clyne River is an historic landfill where operations ceased in the 1970s; much of this has been colonised by Japanese Knotweed.
