## Resource

Two 14-year-old girls just shattered records—swimming the brutal 20-mile Bristol Channel in under six hours and thirty minutes, all to spotlight sewage pollution choking our waters. Their coach is confident they’ve set a new world record for youngest swimmers, pending official confirmation this September. Motivated by raw sewage dumping that sickened one of them during training, they’re turning a dangerous environmental crisis into a powerful message. With water companies spilling sewage for nearly two million hours last year—blamed on crumbling infrastructure—their swim isn’t just about endurance; it’s a wake-up call. Despite murky conditions and nausea-inducing smells, they called it “surreal and amazing,” proving that youth, grit, and purpose can turn pollution into progress.
