River Thames remained cynosure of every eye for a long time, but the heritage of the river seems to be diminishing. After heavy and incessant rains and flooding, the once beautiful river has given way to a river full of sewage effluents that is increasingly becoming a health hazard for the marine life as well as the human population. Untreated sewage flowing into the river has choked the clean, beautiful river and resulted in toxic algal bloom. Passing nearby the river is nothing less than toxic that results in nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea or abdominal pain.
