Traveling through birmingham on the train regularly at the moment and I find it somewhat odd that Crown records management (secure records archiving place) is part of the same physical building as a recycling plant. This place:

Fumes not toxic residents assured.............. Greens trashing the environment again.
We are expected to believe a mountain of recycling waste in an uncontrolled burn releases nothing but the smell of lavender and roses, but diesel cars are deadly.
First one for a little while. Local to me and I pass it on one of my bike ride routes.

Funnily enough I was just about to post that. I could see the smoke at my gym, 16 miles away.http://www.spaldingtoday.co.uk/news/update-friday-...
Second time in 5 years...
According to Lincs fire twitter page they scaled it back to 4 appliances only two hours ago.
New rules
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-42271132
suspend their licence while they rebuild the place
Should be effective
Why dont we just accept that the stuff needs burning?

Easy for you to say, trying telling that to someone who lives directly downwind of one who has nasal cancer and has never smoked a cigarette ever, and young children with severe asthma, these people find it hard to accept they have no choice to breathe in smoke foisted upon them day after day after day.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-42271132

The siting of these toxic burners is often colossally unfair to those who live nearby. As is so often the case profit matters more than peoples health.
The impact of their location needs to be evaluated much more intensively than is currently the case.

They are building a new huge incinerator at the side of the M5 near Gloucester to deal with waste and generate electric, seems a good idea to me if all safety and environmental controls are in place. The alternative is landfill which is equally frowned upon by many
