A massive mountain of illegal waste in Oxfordshire will be cleared, the Environment Agency says. It says the 'exceptional decision' was made to clear the site because it poses a 'fire risk', adding that it will only take such action in 'truly exceptional circumstances'. The 150-metre long pile of rubbish provoked outrage and experts say it posed a risk to the environment. One man who was arrested as part of an investigation into the dumping of waste has since been released pending further investigation.

The scourge of illegal waste crime sweeping the country has now made its way to my river, with one of the largest illegal waste dumps in the country being discovered next to the River Roding at Stapleford Tawney, near Epping. Nobody knows what exactly is dumped on this 20,000 square metre site, or how much waste it contains, but it is certainly tens of thousands of tonnes. Shockingly, rubbish has been dumped on this site since 2024 and the Environment Agency (EA) has known about it for *at least* a year. Even now, however, the EA has not shut down the site by obtaining a legal closure order, physically blocking off the site and putting in CCTV monitoring. This means the site is wide open so anyone can continue to dump there. There is also zero monitoring of the environmental impact on the river, despite visible toxic leachate pooling on the surface of the dump & draining off it. The EA has apparently no plans to remove the waste from this site either & intends to let it pollute the environment indefinitely.

Hon'ble Deputy Chief Minister Sri Pawan Kalyan visited the Jindal Waste-to-Energy Plant at Kondaveedu in Palnadu district to study best practices in sustainable waste management. • Special workshops to be conducted in 268 Gram Panchayats associated with the Pushkaralu. • Waste should be effectively utilized as an alternative source of energy. • The process of waste segregation must improve from villages to cities. • Andhra Pradesh should emerge as a state with zero dependence on dumping yards. • The waste collection model implemented in Indore serves as an inspiration.

Here it is: U.S. airports across the country during the Biden–Harris domestic terrorist administration: Illegal aliens have been able to use their WARRANTS FOR THEIR ARREST as ID to board domestic flights. Rep. Wesley Hunt: “You know what a valid form of ID is for an illegal alien, according to the TSA today? An arrest warrant. I’m not making that up. An arrest warrant could get an illegal alien on a domestic flight.”

Back in the day there were the Pinkertons, they did investigations and even arrests. They were a private company. Since we the people have already taken over the part of investigating exposing fraud, maybe we just need to create something like the Pinkertons to arrest the criminals. Since no one in any law enforcement agency seems to be capable of arresting actual criminals. Just me spit balling over here.

🇱🇹 Lithuania is facing a full-blown waste crisis: Vilnius is quite literally drowning in garbage The Prime Minister has called an emergency meeting, saying the situation has become so serious that it can no longer be managed without government intervention. If the companies responsible for waste collection and processing fail to reach an agreement, Lithuania could declare a state of emergency as early as Wednesday. The crisis began last year after a fire damaged Vilnius' main waste-sorting plant. The facility is still not fully operational, and waste continues to accumulate across the city. Environmental experts are raising concerns, while Vilnius Mayor has warned that another fire is possible. Firefighters are now on duty at the site 24 hours a day. Authorities are urgently looking for solutions. Some of the waste is being burned at a waste-to-energy plant, while the rest is being sent to other cities for processing.
