Letter: Cornish coast to be ruined by sewage system
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.YOUR article about the new Tate Gallery at St Ives ('Modernism has melted at the edges', 6 June) fails to point out that the Government gives with one hand but takes away with the other. The nearby cost-cutting, ill-considered Gwithian sewage outfall scheme, meant to improve coastal pollution at Penzance, will shortly begin discharging and will permanently ruin the beautiful beach at Porthmeor, and probably sacrifice a lot of the wild and unpopulated Atlantic coastline.
