Palm oil production has been linked to significant deforestation due to unsustainable farming practices that clear natural forests. Activists and environmental groups call for bans on non-sustainable palm oil in consumer products to prevent forest loss, while some producers argue for economic benefits and the need for responsible cultivation methods.

I live near to this proposed facility. There is already another facility within 3 miles of the proposed location which isn’t at capacity. The local waste plan indicates that there is no requirement for this facility. The road infrastructure in the area cannot take the extra traffic, there are constant queues on the main roads and the HGVs often use smaller roads/lanes trying to avoid traffic, causing even more chaos. Local children have to walk on narrow pavements along the main A444 to get to school. The extra lorries will make these journey’s even more dangerous. Then there is the pollution, smells and health risks associated with the incinerator facilities. Our children deserve a healthier life. Also the threat to wildlife is unacceptable and lady but no means least, no matter how they think they can disguise facility, the location and height of it will be seen for miles.
The A444 is absolutely jammed with HGV's already, please no more.
Air pollution, sound pollution and light pollution, please no.
There is an incinerator literally 4 miles away.
Please decline this appeal.
Residents should come 1st in this instance.
Swadlincote and Woodville seem to be an area that gets dumped with too many 'projects' that do not enhance a national forest context. There is already (starting a few months ago) an enormous increase in HGV activity from Woodville to the monstrous depot in Swadlincote. The slaughter house down from clock garage has increased 2 or 3 fold in size and HGV's have already churned up the pot hole repairs on the clock garage island. The scrap yard on Moira road increases noise pollution. The shop on the clock garage island is now 9 bed sits. The constant house building around the area is straining all the utilities and services.Re igniting the old incinerator in Woodville is the last straw. Ordinary citizens can put up with a lot today, but I am re thinking what used to be a fairly reasonable space to live.
I live close by and with the natural wildlife being under threat from this unnecessary development, I feel thus incinerator needs to be rejected. They have already tried several times but obviously do not like to be told No. Access to and from is also impacting the local small roads causing traffic issues, never mind the smell and pollution.
