Evenlode Catchment Partnership的成员于2026年3月将136 000英镑归还泰晤士河水公司, Members of the Evenlode Catchment Partnership returned £136,000 to Thames Water in March 2026, citing a broken trust over the company’s environmental record and 2025–2029 business plan. 这些资金是300万英镑赠款的一部分,用于一个改善埃文洛德河健康的项目。 The funds were part of a £3 million grant for a project to improve the River Evenlode’s health. 由于在Church Hanborough污水处理厂多次泄漏超过1500小时,以及明显的污染,该组织于2025年3月断绝了联系,拒绝了泰士水公司保留资金的提议. The group severed ties in March 2025 after repeated sewage spills—over 1,500 hours at Church Hanborough Sewage Treatment Works—and visible pollution, rejecting Thames Water’s offer to retain the money. 他们批评该公司的环境主张为绿化洗涤, 特别是在第4频道纪录片揭露工业腐败之后。 They criticized the company’s environmental claims as greenwashing, especially after a Channel 4 documentary exposed industry corruption. 泰晤士河水承认的河流健康受到农业、工业和天气的影响,并重申致力于透明度和集水环境进步。 Thames Water acknowledged river health is influenced by farming, industry, and weather, and reaffirmed its commitment to transparency and catchment-based environmental progress.
