Thank you for your interest in protecting Scotland's environment. Yellow Fish is an active, enjoyable and effective way of raising awareness of the issues of waste and pollution, and helping make Scotland's environment a cleaner and healthier place.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

Many of Scotland's drains lead directly into local burns and rivers. You may find these drains on the street, in car parks, on industrial estates or around shopping centres and community buildings. Pouring unwanted liquid wastes such as oil, paint, solvents, garden chemicals or other chemicals down the drain can, therefore, cause pollution and kill fish, birds and other wildlife. Even disposing of wastes down outdoor household drains can result in water pollution, or can cause problems at wastewater treatment works.
