SHOULD REGULATORS PASS KILLING & MAIMING AROUND CHESTERFIELD?

Should you reside or work downward of the proposed Sheepbridge Resource Park site, note it can be passed by the council, subject to agreement by the public health director and the Environment Agency. Note that incineration of waste causes a shortening of lifespan of up to 14 years (seen in Coventry), often in the prime of life by increasing a range of diseases especially heart attacks & cancers. A university led study in Belgium detailed diseases and deaths caused during years 1-5 , 6-10 and 11-20 ending up with a 480% rise in cancer incidence on top of the country’s rise, yet that St Niklaas Incinerator was operating under the EC 2000 directive, as is the proposal. The proposed chimney will spread the damage up to 5 miles depending on weather conditions including Chesterfield, Dronfield,Staveley, Brimington, Arkwright & intervening villages. The proposal appears to deal with hazardous and residual waste in 3 gasification plants each with a 3-foot wide flue. The temperature has been quoted as 850C but that waste needs over 1250C and the system appears unsafe like incinerators.
