EXTINCTION Rebellion Wimborne held a protest on the banks of the River Stour earlier this month to warn people about the alarming level of pollution in the river. The Pink Rebels of the environmental movement protested on the banks of the River Stour at Riverside in Wimborne on Sunday, December 20. Wearing pink masks and pink hazmat suits, they marched and chanted, the Stour is polluted, we weep for the Stour as part of their commitment to ensuring people know about the level of pollution in the river. According to the group, there’s raw sewage, run off from farms including fertilisers and animal waste, and a range of toxic chemicals flowing through the water of the river.
