After much lobbying on our part, there is now an air quality monitor at the school, and we are the only village around the incinerator to have one. Unfortunately NO2 is the only pollutant that is being monitored, but it’s a start. So far, emissions are within limits.

Monitoring will run for one year only, and started in June 2025.

Thanks to our Councillor, Arnold Warneken for advocating for better air quality, and for better information. And for securing the results shown below of the monitoring so far.
