First off, fantastic. It's great to see a strategically important carbon capture project that contributes to 2050 goals. My house looks onto the incinerator, it's a source of pride for me. I'm proud to tell visitors how it generates greener power and avoids destructive waste. The CO2 capture is a welcome addition. I'd love it if there was some way of visually signalling it's environmental benefit from afar (e.g. big digits on each tower which can be read as 2050 from Picardy Hill and the river) It's not ideal that some protected marshland will be lost. However, it seems a reasonable price to pay, given the national/global benefits. Cory must also be culturally sensitive to the history of travellers using the marshes for habitation and grazing.
