PFAS price tag revealed, curtains for Cumbria coal mine, and the true cost of nationalising our water

Eco Chamber

Every week, the ENDS team enters the ECO Chamber to discuss the UK’s biggest green news stories, and take a forensic look at one of the deep-rooted environmental issues facing us today.

In this week’s episode, the team explores:

• PFAS. How much is it going to cost and how long have our agency’s known about its dangers?
• And planning for the UK’s first new deep sea coal mine in decades has been quashed by the courts… why?

In the news-in-brief section the team discusses:

• DEFRA's order to ‘regulate more effectively’.
• Labour’s climate and nature special envoys and
• Severn Trent's £300K payout following the pollution of a Gloucestershire brook.

For this week’s deep-dive, the team factchecks the true cost of renationalising the water companies.
