Baking for The Geological Society's GeoBakeOff!
June 15, 2020
At Envireau Water we are always up for a challenge, whether it’s groundwater monitoring or baking in the kitchen for The Geological Society’s yearly Great British GeoBakeOff!
If you are a member of this great society you will be very familiar with this annual national baking competition, which sees an array of entries covering 10 geological themes. The bakers with the best interpretations are rewarded with one of the legendary GeoBakeOff aprons, as well as the respect and admiration of the entire geological community.
This year’s competition felt a bit different since the Envireau Team could not get together to bake. However, we managed to create a number of entries, from Fossil Trackways to Rock Pets!
Only time will tell how we get on in the competition, but until then we hope the cakes are enjoyed by all!

Across the globe, plastic pollution is becoming an increasingly crucial topic, with an estimated 400 million tonnes being produced every year world wide. While the focus is often on visible plastic (including bottles, bags, and packaging), a growing body of research is turning its attention to the invisible threat of microplastics and emerging contaminants, which are increasingly finding their way into water sources, food chains and even the air we breathe. What are microplastics? Microplastics are a growing threat to the health of our planet. Despite being barely visible, these tiny plastic particles account for roughly 8% of global plastic waste, a number that is set to increase in the coming years.

As much as we all love the sunshine and have been embracing the recent warmer weather spell across the UK, the prolonged dry conditions are now raising concerns that England may be at risk of a potential drought this summer. Following an exceptionally sunny and dry April, which experienced just over 56% of usual rainfall, the start of May was also the warmest on record, surpassing the previous high set in 1990. With water resources already strained, it is more important than ever that proactive measures are promptly adopted to mitigate this risk, promote water conservation and avoid the potential for future restrictions. We asked Principal Water Resources Specialist, Tamsin Morey , for her thoughts on the matter... Tamsin, what dangers are we already seeing in the UK?
