EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "River Derwent pollution 15th June 1989" takes us back to a significant moment in history, capturing the devastating environmental issues that plagued our planet during the 1980s. The image transports us to a time when concerns about pollution and its impact on our waterways were at an all-time high. The River Derwent, once known for its pristine beauty and thriving ecosystem, is depicted here in a state of distress. The murky waters tell a tale of neglect and disregard for nature's delicate balance. It serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of human actions on our environment. Taken by an anonymous staff member from Memory Lane Prints, this photograph encapsulates the urgent need for change during that era. It stands as evidence of how industrialization and modernization often came at the expense of Mother Nature's wellbeing. As we reflect upon this powerful image today, it reminds us not only of past mistakes but also serves as inspiration to protect and preserve our natural resources for future generations. Let it be a call to action against further degradation and an encouragement to adopt sustainable practices that will ensure cleaner rivers and healthier ecosystems. May this photograph serve as both a testament to our collective responsibility towards safeguarding our environment and as motivation for ongoing efforts in combating water pollution worldwide.
