What We Flush Away – Period Products

by Bonnie Ireland • 6 August 2026

Every time I dip a paddle into a river, I'm reminded that water connects us all. The rain falling on a hillside. The stream running through a village. The river winding its way to the sea. What happens upstream never really stays upstream. It flows onwards, carrying everything with it. That includes the things we choose to flush down the toilet.

Whether you're planning a gentle paddle on your local river, exploring Wales' stunning coastline, or leading trips for others, understanding the environment around you is one of the most important skills a paddler can develop. Conditions on the water can change quickly, and having the knowledge to make informed decisions can help you paddle more confidently, safely, and responsibly.

Isla Carmen - Caiacio môr ym Môr Cortez

by VICKY BARLOW • 7 July 2026

Mae caiacio môr yn ffordd wych o fwynhau cyfarfyddiadau â bywyd gwyllt, boed yn balod ar Sgomer, morloi oddi ar Ben y Gogarth neu ddolffiniaid ym Mae Aberteifi. Fodd bynnag, mae un creadur arall rydw i bob amser wedi bod eisiau ei weld, ac mae'n annhebygol y bydd yn digwydd ar arfordir Cymru, a dyna forfil. Mae gweld y rhain o gaiac môr yn gofyn am ychydig o gynllunio, o bosibl rhywfaint o deithio dramor a dos da o lwc. Dyna sut y cefais fy hun yn Baja, Mecsico’r llynedd, gyda bag o faw ar fy nec, pothelli ar fy nwylo a rhywfaint o'r bywyd gwyllt gorau rydw i erioed wedi'i weld. O, a gyda Pete. Roeddwn i'n cario rhywfaint o'i faw.
