'Eco Party Bags' Environmentally friendly childrens party bags. Calne.
Sounds great until you realise it was on the back of a large Landrover Turbo!!! Do you think they might be missing the point somewhat or just jumping on the band-wagon? I notice that they do home deliveries!! Hmmmmm? Don't think i'll be buying from them.

I`ve been travelling up to Marlborough recently and there is a really horrific smell as you head out of Calne towards the White Horse.It`s not a farm smell!! What is it??????? It never used to be there.
Re.recycling dumps: I don`t get it ,i really don`t.You have countless numbers of people in cars polluting the planet driving to these dumps to get rid of their waste.This is mad! Making a special journey to save the planet!!! This doesnt make any sense at all.
Best to all,Sam

| | Date: | Sat 30 Jun 2007 21:01:08 BST | | Subject: | Renewable energy | | | The Government is intending to shortly bring in a new law that will allow major projects - nuclear power stations, incinerators, airports, large windfarms and so forth - to have their planning consent decided at westminster, and not by the County Council. This means we could have a large windfarm located in Wiltshire, generating electricity for a sizeable proportion of the population. Is this a good idea and, if it is, where would be the best place to locate it ? Alternatively, should we be saying to the Government - don't change the law and keep these planning decisions with the County Council ? Or is the County Council just an obstacle in the way of the need for fundamental changes in planning procedures and law ? | | | Post Reply | Display replies to this message

Why does Wiltshire CC not collect all types of paper, cardboard, and plastics ? Why does it not collect kitchen waste ? Other Councils in the UK do, so why not Wiltshire - what is stopping them ? | | | Post Reply | Display replies to this message
