Show Notes
In this month's MiniPod, we're joined by CIWEM President Hannah Burgess and we discuss...
1. The consultation on how flood funding is awarded and how that opens the door to more voluntary groups, and environmental NGOs, directly accessing funding.
2. The news that a global plastics treaty is being debated, alongside some ideas for individual actions.
3. We also consider the updated national sustainable drainage standards which should drive more consistency in what's delivered.
