The spell of surface water into rivers during heavy rainfall counts as a spill under the new regulations. There has been a great deal of fuss about water companies and a large investment in preventing these spills.
Heavy rainfall shorter heavier events is a feature of climate change. Emissions from construction contribute X percentage to climate change with concrete and iron contributing X kilograms per kilogram CO2 equivalent embodied carbon.
Building 5 km sewer, a great expense and great carbon expense contribute to the carbon emissions that causes climate change.
Climate change causes the heavier rainfall. The heavier rainfall these to more need for stormwater retention balancing and prevent prevention of CSO spills.
Prevention of CSO spills lead to climate change.
Sewer construction —> co2e —> heavy rain—> stormwater retention requirement—> sewer construction
