A world without a safe, healthy natural environment is a world without safe, healthy people. Shutting down these offices is bringing humanity one step closer to destruction. Is that really what we want?
Issi supported: EPA, Don’t Shut Down Environmental Justice OfficesLow income communities deserve a healthy and safe environment , I am highly concerned about the shut down of this. I hope that this decision can be reconsidered and the crucial work of environmental justice initiatives be supported!
Krystal supported: EPA, Don’t Shut Down Environmental Justice OfficesPLEASE, I'm begging you to refuse this application. I already suffer from so many health issues, including respiratory ones, and this will just finish me off. So much toxicity in the soil there, not to mention how the infrastructure will cope. Traffic is already at a standstill daily, especially when there is just one set of road works. This will make the whole area intolerable. Then there's the upset to the cemetery, and loved ones with relatives and friends there, and the huge building that will block the skyline. This is our home, our area where we grew up, please I beg you not to allow this incredibly dangerous monstrosity.
Daisy supported: Keep Kensal Green; #keepkensalgreenWe need to keep as many mature trees as we can. They are very much needed for breathable air quality and habitat for other living beings. Humans are not the only species that matters.
Ian supported: Last ditch attempt to save the mature trees on Tavistock RoadE-mail sent to Nuclear Waste Services.
I have been reading the updates regarding the sighting process of the Geological Disposal Facility (GDF).
One of your proposed sites is the area in and around Millom.
With reference to this area there are the Pitfalls of living with Historic Mining Risk, which I am sure you will agree produce hazards and consequences.
A large sinkhole was discovered in 2020 around the seawall in the Millom area. At the time, the coastguard, and other agencies
were involved in the deliberations. There is also a sinkhole being monitored at the car park area around Haverigg, this is being scrutinised by Millom Council.
The inner seawall started to collapse between 1885 with the main incident taking place in 1898. This was due to mining and the unsophisticated way in which it was allowed to take place leaving the area of Millom and Haverigg under great burden from associated problems.
Millom is three miles from Silecroft the edge of the National Park a protected area of great excellence. Hodbarrow Nature Reserve is also a protected area
naturally created for the protection of birds and covers an area of 8.1 acres.
In your Community Partnership Letter (Issue eight) it is stated that 31% of people in the Millom area are against this project, and 33% were neutral.
I suggest regarding the neutral view and during questioning any local people that you interview should have more knowledge around engineering and a better understanding of the technical aspect of this subject.
Please take this feedback with the intent it deserves which is preserving this great area where many people live.
Best Regards
