Tonight at 5: people suck!

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The work was the culmination of four years of planning by a dog walker who was concerned by huge amounts of rubbish in the River Ogmore, Bridgend.

Dog walker Alun said he was inspired to organise the clean-up during trips with his cocker spaniel to Ogmore-by-Sea, where at low tide he would see geese perched on shopping trolleys and tyres on the riverbed.

Carlos Garcias de Leaniz, professor of aquatic sciences at Swansea University, said rivers in Wales being left in this state could kill its fish.

“This must be organised, people collecting tyres as a business and tipping them straight into the river over a long period of time.”

Rob Taylor, who looks after rural and wildlife crime in Wales, agreed, adding that there would be a “significant fine” if the culprits had been caught.

Mr Taylor also highlighted the importance that education has to play and having offenders pay back into the environments they have damaged.
