London’s newest official bathing spot on the Thames is under threat as a toxic blue-green algae bloom forces authorities to shut it down—pets, people, and wildlife are being warned away. With water quality still being assessed after the season ends, Richmond Council urges everyone to stay out of the water and avoid contact with visible algae. Environmental groups blame warm weather and sewage overflows, especially near a recently failing site downstream of a new Thames Water project that pumps treated wastewater back into the river. While Thames Water claims safety standards will be met, critics demand stricter international-level treatment protocols. For now: don’t swim, don’t touch, and keep your pets safe.
