Tarago Incinerator To Burn Sydneys Rubbish - CATTI - Cid Riley 2022 - 11 - 11 BTL

Align in the Sound - New Economy Network / Radio BTL / CoCanberra

Radio Behind the Lines (BTL) talks with people and organisations trying to make the world a better place. In this episode of Radio BTL from 11th November 2022, we talk with Cid Riley from Citizens Against The Tarago Incinerator, or CATTI. Cid will give us an update on the Tarago Incinerator and CATTI’s fight to keep the toxic fumes out of their community and many surrounding communities. Tarago is a small community which has been taking trainloads of Sydneys rubbish for years, at a significant cost due to reglaur, thick "stench bombs" floating through the area. Now Tarago is ground zero for a gigantic rubbish incinerator to burn more of Sydneys rubbish, operated by VEolia, the same company responsible for unleashing the stench bombs for many years. The toxic plume of this incinerator will also reach many other communities, including Bungendore, Canberra, Goulburn, Braidwood and more. Anybody drinking rainwater in the region should be very concerned about this proposal. Tune in and learn how you can take action against this polluter - and pass this on to anyone you know who drinks from a rain tank!
