A Sydney creek turned bright blue last week, sparking an investigation that uncovered disturbing alleged pollution. A nearby warehouse has since been accused of polluting the Toongabbie Creek, which is part of the Parramatta River catchment, and locals have been urged to avoid the bright blue sections of water until it is cleaned up.

Toongabbie Creek turns bright blue. Locals were furious as two sections of Toongabbie Creek turned “turquoise blue” with many reporting that the shocking incident was not the first time they have seen the creek become “visibly polluted”. “The poor river wildlife,” one wrote on social media. “It’s still devastating,” another wrote, days after the community reported the alleged pollution to authorities.
