WASTED - Whole town going to pot?

RUGBY RESIDENTS SOON TO BE HAPPIER AS IMPORTED WEED MAKES AIR SWEETER

RUGBY BOROUGH COUNCIL ADVERT.. RUGBY ADVERTISER
"Each year in Rugby we throw away enough Rubbish to fill the Ken Marriot swimming pool 129 times, or to put it another way, fill enough lorries to stretch nose to tail from the Clock Tower Rugby to the NEC Birmingham. It's a fact that more than 32,000 tonnes of rubbish gets thrown away each year."

CEMEX HAZARDOUS WASTE
Hazardous waste production increases when burning wastes, as we saw in the recent inadequate tyre trials at Cemex Rugby, where both bypass dust and reject clinker increased. Funnily enough the hazardous waste bypass dust produced in Rugby Cement is about the same daily tonnage of household waste produced by Rugby residents. Now we are to have one bin every two weeks, to SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT! Household waste is only a fraction of the industrial waste!

APPLICATION TO ENVIRONMENT AGENCY
Cemex Rugby now wish to burn CLIMAFUEL : London's household and Commercial Waste at 15 tonnes an hour, 360 tonnes a day, = 132,000 tonnes a year, to be trucked up the M1 by lorry. Enough waste to fill 530 swimming pools, and to fill enough lorries to stretch nose to tail from Rugby Clock Tower to the NEC over FOUR times.

WHICH VERSION DO YOU BELIEVE?

CLIMAFUEL TRIAL GOING WELL:
Cemex South Ferriby Liaison Committee: "The Climafuel trial is ongoing and going well."


CLIMAFUEL TRIAL NOT GOING WELL
South Ferriby Parish Council Minutes: "The Climafuel trial has been suspended due to excess levels of some metals being detected."


HOUSEHOLD WASTE TO BE SHIPPED IN - TO RUGBY?
AS APPARENTLY NOT ENOUGH HOUSEHOLD WASTE IS GENERATED IN THE UK!

CEMEX South Ferriby Liaison Committee: " The only disappointment has been with the supply chain for Climafuel. Shanks have not been able to provide sufficient Climafuel. At the moment we are in discussions to find alternative UK supplies. We are also talking to a DUTCH supplier of Climafuel, which will be shipped in by boat into a local port".

Councillor England pointed out that there is a new incinerator being installed at HULL; (i.e. adjoining South Ferriby) and he felt it was a shame that more people were not aware of Cemex on the south bank of the Humber being able to dispose of waste materials. Councillor Berry added that it was regrettable that we have to import waste materials."

What DOPE thought this up?!
