When Mark Barrow started diving into Britain’s rivers in 1989 the experience blew his mind. The underwater environment was brimming with grayling, barbel and many other species of fish.
But 30 years on, his experience of swimming in Britain’s rivers has drastically changed. Now regularly emerges from the river covered in “human waste” and “sanitary products”.
Diving beneath the surface of his local rivers multiple times per week, filming the conditions for his film company Beneath British Waters, Mark showed us the true impact sewage pollution is having on our natural habitats.
