HELLO MIGHTY PROPONENTS OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY OPPOSING RESYNERGI

We are in the final weeks in our effort to ensure we are protecting our health, communities, and environment. There are 16 days left until the end of the BAAQMD public comment period — let’s stay focused, active, and loud! Remember to submit comments to BAAQMD before the deadline of October 3! Details linked here.  

✅ Calls to Action ✅

✅ Attend City Council Meeting on Tuesday September 23: Help remind City Council that incinerators are prohibited land use in Rohnert Park and Sonoma County! Ask City of RP to turn Resynergi's STOP WORK ORDER issued into a PERMIT REVOCATION!

📍 Rohnert Park City Council Meeting: Tuesday, September 23 @ 4:30 pm
We showed up in force at the last meeting and so did Resynergi — it’s critical to continue to make sure our voices are heard. This is the final RP Council meeting before BAAQMDs public comment period is over October 3. 

Please come join in Round #3, wear red, bring a sign and prepare a public comment if you feel comfortable. We’ll hold prep time together in the next week to support anyone drafting comments - stay tuned for details.

✅ Share with your community: Use the Learn More information below to help friends, neighbors, and the community understand why Resynergi’s “chemical recycling” claims are misleading.

📚 Learn More & Speak Consistently: Pyrolysis is Incineration and Chemical Recycling is a Euphemism.

It is imperative we speak with the same language. Resynergi calls their project “chemical recycling,” but expert testimony makes it clear: pyrolysis is combustion — and all combustion of waste is incineration. Incinerators are regulated under the federal Clean Air Act and are not allowed in Rohnert Park.

🔎 Key takeaway from Dr. Ranajit (Ron) Sahu’s sworn expert testimony (find here) on combustion and pyrolysis:

“Some combustion is inevitable during pyrolysis/gasification and always occurs.”
“It is impossible to separate pyrolysis/gasification and combustion. Together, they are an incinerator.”
