Whilst we are
awaiting a number of replies from different individuals, and organisations, I
thought I would update you with developments.
Steve Wright, who was the guy who set up the video, is working tirelessly behind the scenes, and contacting MP's and organisations, and hopefully we'll have more feedback soon. He will be helping me update this blog.
As of this morning we have 345 signatures on the petition.
Our thanks go out to JC Maloney for updating the NCMD forum with the petition information.
Also John Wells - Chairman of NCMD - Midlands Region - for his blanket email
Also to StuE - Stuart Elton - for alerting a number of MP's and detectorist.co.uk
Thanks to Ukdetectornet.co.uk for all their support during the setting up of the petition.
Our concerns are even worse than we feared. Hearing stories such as
'was spread with green waste coverd in tin foil, shredded computer boards..land is runied now'
'the farmer had this compost??/.put on and then grassed the field ,a cow then pulled up a hinge and swallowed it ,then died, at the post m.. the vet found it had a lacerated second stomach, that field is now permantly in crop because he cannot graze animals on it'.
'fields that were so contaminated it was impossible to take a step without getting a signal which was metal rubbish'
'I know of one particular farm in Hertfordshire that has lorries rolling up day and night'
It has also been pointed out that some green waste is good for the environment. Strictly speaking that is true. But this is Biodegradable waste, typically originating from plant or animal sources, which may be broken down by other living organisms. Waste that cannot be broken down by other living organisms may be called non-biodegradable, and certainly the metal, glass and plastics we are referring too are NON-BIODEGRADABLE.
