West Lothian Water Confluence, hosted with River Almond Action Group, provided a close focus on pollution, contamination and the causes of flooding. Many thanks to those from the spheres of environmental science, angling, community action groups and citizens who attended, along with Bathgate and Linlithgow’s MP Kirsteen Sullivan, and to River Almond Action Group – RAAG for organising the event in Linlithgow on 28 September. Our report is ready to take forward – and to – relevant bodies. The pollution of waterways and sources simply must be addressed, and urgently.
Participants voted for three key actions: to create a vision for clean water in Scotland; better regulation and enforcement; to achieve accountability. The conference and outcomes are detailed in the report, which is available here.
In addition, the report for the Bathgate Summit on Climate earlier in September is available here. This is the summary report, for the fuller one please email info@wlcan.scot
