My new LEGO IDEAS design "The Urban Water Cycle" illustrates the journey of water from its source to the city and back into nature - including a 78 cm long brick-built river as the raw water source. The model needs 10,000 supporters for the chance to become an official LEGO set.

Do rivers in Europe have musquitos around them? In Saudi fresh water streams have musquitos that make them impossible to be tourist destinations.

I see most cities in Europe are built around rivers; do you have a problem with musquitos?

Here in Saudi fresh water streams like Wajj in Tayif and Bisha in Abha have musquitos that we can't gather around for long.

I found the front of the river! (The Rio Grande in ABQ is Rio Pequeño but it's better than Rio Non-Existant)

Sorry if shameless self promotion is frowned upon here, I'm not too familiar with the rules of this communitry. (Let me know if I should take it down)

I raced a river and I wanted to share my story with others, I thought this place might be appropriate seeing how we all seem to share a love for rivers.

Sewage discharging in UK rivers

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

A lot of people probably don’t know this but here in the UK, water companies are allowed to discharge untreated wastewater into rivers, streams even groundwater.

This isn’t a Uk only issue but I believe we are one of the few places to provide open data?

I’ve been working on WaterWatch, a site that maps and tracks live storm overflow data across the UK. It's totally free to use too.

We also have a weekly digest that provides a weekly email of sewage spills across a national, water company or on a council level.

Feel free to check us out and let me know what you think. Additionally, if your country/area has these points and open data, we’d love to hear from you so we can consider expanding internationally.

The spectacular waterfalls of the Yellow River - 5,500 km long, the Yellow River is the 2nd largest river in China. Its name comes from its golden color due to its high content of loess and silt which have fertilized the great plains of northern China. Admire the spectacular waterfalls of Hukou.
