  • Graeme Mitchell

    Siting the Cory plant on a Nature Reserve which has been designated as a Site of Metropolitan Importance for Nature Conservation is both ill-concieved and ill-considered. To sacrifice the nature... Read more

  • Lesley Anne Mann

    Cory want to take 11.7% of Crossness Nature Reserve, one of the last areas of grazing marsh in the Thames estuary, and build on it. They admitted at their presentation on 13th September 2023 that this... Read more

    I am opposing this project. The main issue I believe this project would have a huge impact is the wildlife that exists on these marshlands. Endangered species live here and to lose them would be a... Read more

    it is deeply upsetting to see that a site noted for its diversity of exceptional wild life which has somehow survived in a heavily populated part of London, is to be destroyed by this proposal. One of... Read more

  • Mr Nicholas Hatton

    Not in a nature reserve! It seems to create a terrible precedent to propose taking a slice of a nature reserve for a hastily thought out scheme (the plan was for a data centre until last year, when... Read more

    We must preserve this nature reserve and its entire ecosystem for the benefit of wildlife but also for the humans whose mental health it supports.

  • Robert Stephen Morris

    1- the proposal is designed to tick boxes to reduce carbon emissions. The point of reducing carbon emissions is to reduce the detrimental effect on the climate as well as to reduce pollution, for the... Read more

    I am against Cory building their CCS facility on Crossness Nature Reserve. Their planning documents show alternative sites and I think one of these is more appropriate. We keep being told by... Read more

    My heart sinks when I hear yet another nature reserve will be downsized for eternity. I grew up in Bexleyheath. Crossness is a haven in the concrete sprawl that engulfs the area now. Hundreds of... Read more

  • Dorothy Stein

    I raise a number of concerns with the CCS technology, and question assumptions that are made in the ES 6.1 Chapter 13. It should be noted that in 2018 there was widespread opposition from the GLA,... Read more

    The proposed plant amounts to the destruction of essential habitat

    Much of this land was designated as a nature reserve 30 years ago to mitigate against damage caused by Thames Water. It is completely nonsensical to destroy the local environment and a nature reserve... Read more
