Write
to all the County Councillors.
Ask them this question:
"In view of the fact that this
proposed incinerator and waste sorting plant at Mountfield will breach the
Government's proximity principle,
in view of Michael Meacher's recent clear
statement that new incinerators will not be built in the middle of the
countryside,
and in view of the governments recent proposal to strengthen
the protection for Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty,
why are you wasting
time and money pusuing an option which has every likelihood of being thrown
out at the Public Inquiry?"
but
please please put it in your own words - if they get identical messages
from everyone they will discount them.
How
to contact the councillors now.
Write
to the Government.
Write
to your
MP, the Prime Minister and the Deputy
Prime Minister (Minister of State for the Environment) and
Mr Michael Meacher (Minister for the
Environment) are all worth doing.
Please write to them all now. The more letters they get, the more they
will realize how unpopular incinerators are, and the more pressure there will be
to stop creating waste in the first place, and to encourage proper re-cycling
and care of the environment.
