Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

What is the issue with building houses where there are high nitrogen levels?
You can prevent it with veganic farming.
Just had a look and apparently the problem is that housing developments add to the problem with extra wastewater and sewage from new homes as well as run-off from construction sites.
I know and I'm aware of the massive damage that it does to our waters, I'm just not sure why it's used as an excuse to not build houses in such areas. Does housing add to the problem of nitrates getting into the water or something? So many problems would go away if went organic and banned all fossil fuel derivatives.
