Hundreds of Lime bikes dumped in canals and rivers posing risk of pollution, charity warns

Lime bikes being dumped in rivers and canals across England are raising concerns about pollution and flooding. The Canal and River Trust is spending thousands to retrieve the bikes, with Nottingham being a hotspot. The bikes pose a pollution risk due to their batteries, and efforts are being made to address the issue by urging Lime to cover retrieval costs and prevent further dumping.
