Clackmannan

We did not receive enough data points from Clackmannan to undertake meaningful analysis of the county’s water quality. However, in Scotland, we analysed 278 datapoints, of which, 30% were found to have unacceptable levels of nutrient pollution.

Scotland’s freshwater sites demonstrate significantly better conditions compared to England, where 74% of water samples showed unacceptable levels of nutrient pollution. You can explore all of the datapoints from Scotland and the whole of the UK on the Great UK WaterBlitz on the interactive WaterBlitz map. Despite it’s relatively clean freshwater, the presence of unacceptable pollution levels in a third of Scotland’s tested sites highlights that challenges remain.

Our next WaterBlitz will take place in September. Ongoing water testing throughout the Great UK WaterBlitz is crucial for establishing a comprehensive and dynamic picture of the nation’s freshwater health, enabling the identification of pollution hotspots, tracking changes over time, and providing vital data to advocate for stronger environmental policies. Fill in this form to get early access to the next WaterBlitz. By signing up will get exclusive early access to sign up via email. You will still need to sign up to receive your testing kit and take part.
