The prevailing winds in this area are south westerly and so airborne pollutants will be carried to and dropped on our area: Wisbech is the wrong place for an incinerator - if an incinerator has to be built, somewhere should be chosen where the pollutants could fall on the sea? But, in these days of better waste separation/recycling/reuse are more incinerators really required? I understand that Norfolk County Council, King’s Lynn and West Norfolk Borough Council, Cambridgeshire County Council and Fenland District Council, have objected to the building of this incinerator. Norfolk County Council have unanimously passed a motion tabled at County Council against the incinerator in May 2022.
