Thanks to Amy Clarke and BBC Online News for the Headline.
An incineration Company in South London has been granted to permission to increase it’s quota of incinerated waste that it is allowed to process,by the Environment Agency despite objections from local people and the Council.
The local Council and People living near the site have objected strongly to this increase stating that the Company involved have already breached their permit a number of times and that there will be an increase in traffic and bad smells in the area due to lorries queuing to bring the waste in to be destroyed.
The Company has also now been given permission by the Environment Agency to store Clinical Waste which cannot be burned, which in Central London , seems a very strange permission to give as I wonder what they are going to do with it.
It seems very heavy handed of the Environment Agency to ignore the Council’s wishes on this and having just had that rather serious heatwave last week in May, shouldn’t more thought and consideration go in to handling all this waste and what is causing it, rather than going for a quick fix.
Namaste and Thank You for Reading. 🙏
