We regularly post up further information on this page and highlight different aspects of concern in relation to this 90m stack and waste gasification plant.
Today we will be posting "Plume Plotter" specific for the Hirwaun site. This is a program which tracks where the pollution from the stack will go, pending on the current wind patterns. It is shocking to watch. If you don't live in Hirwaun, Rhigos or Penderyn...maybe you are further up the Valley like Aberdare, or across to Merthyr - well this pollution may still reach you. Also the current patterns are showing even more pollution will be dropping on the Brecon Beacons National Park than they probably envisaged, so we will of course be updating them.

Therefore please keep sharing his petition for just a few more days. Call people you know who may not have heard about this. Also don't forget anyone with an email address can sign. Many of your dependants will have them, so please sign with their accounts. It is our next generation and their children we are fighting to protect after all.
Diolch.
*The enclosed photo was taken on 21 Oct 2020. You can just about make out the electricity pylon amidst the cloud. This is approx 50m high - add another 40m to that and you will see where the stack would stand - think it will be above that cloud? If the stack pumps out into that cloud on a day when there is little wind, where will it go? I think you can work that answer out.
STOP THE STACK!!!
