Reduce, re-use and re-design your rubbish - new website launched

10-01-2006 18:12 | Ecology | Education | Technology | Nottinghamshire

Recyclerbull Arts is researching into arts, crafts and creative workshops that reclaim, reuse and recycle materials.

Can recycled arts and crafts really have a positive impact on attitudes to waste and resources? Are there more qualities to the practice of recycling arts than quirky, clever uses of materials?

At  http://www.recyclerbull.com you will find an online questionaire where you can have your say. Give the site a few seconds to load.

Incineration campaigns spread around the country like wildfire

26-12-2005 22:24 | Ecology | Health | Nottinghamshire

Links to incinerator campaign groups across the UK.

Campaign groups against incineration and landfill have started all over the country, including Sheffield, where a new incinerator being build urged campaign group R.A.B.I.D. ('Residents Against Bernard Road Incinerator Damage') to get into action, with local politicians [1] [2] stating the new facility will 'put the publics health at risk'. Also, the massive enlargement of the Parkwood Landfill site, with an increase from 266,000 tonnes to 1 million tonnes a year, urged local residents to step up their campaigns. Their ongoing investigation into the proposals is raising more questions than answers. Residents are beginning to see a possible link emerging between the new massive incinerator in Sheffield, which is nearing completion, and the proposals for the enlargement of the landfill site. The expansion of the landfill site, proposed by owners Viridor Waste Management, would enable the ash from the new Bernard Roads incinerator to be dumped there. See photos.

Nottingham has recently seen an uprising by local residents in the area of Sneinton to stop the local incinerator from expanding and to demand better recycling facilities. Last year the campaign group NAIL (Nottingham Against Incineration and Landfill) was set up to stop the incinerator burning waste in the middle of the city. When owners Waste Recycling Group (WRG) submitted an application for expansion, the campainers stepped up their campaign. Last Monday over 30 people took action against the local Environment Agency. On Saturday artists and residents in Sneinton organised the 'Rubbish Day Out'. A well attended event, organised to raise awareness of the incinerator expansion and to promote recycling through interactive workshops.

A campaign group has also been set up in Mansfield, just north of Nottingham, where there are plans to build a new mixed waste burning unit at the Crown Farm Industrial Estate in the Forest Town area. Campaign group MAIN (Mansfield Against Incineration) has held several well attended public meetings since early summer. Mansfield MP Alan Meale gave his support to the group. Both NAIL and MAIN are supported by Greenpeace, Notts Friends of the Earth, Nottingham Green Party and CABS (Clean Air for Bakersfield and Sneinton).

See report and photos: 1 | 2

Previous actions: include a demonstration in Nottingham city centre, a banner drop (which is still going on), a protest at the WRG promotional exhibition, and a public meeting back in September. Nottinghamshire Indymedia has been working on a short film about the campaign which will be online soon.

Promoters face flyer crackdown

25-12-2005 12:33 | Culture | Nottinghamshire

BARS and nightclubs risk being fined and having alcohol licenses withdrawn if their leaflets continue to litter the streets. From April landlords will need to get permission from Nottingham City Council if they want to distribute promotional material outside their premises. The new powers being introduced under the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act could mean they are refused renewals on drink licenses if they don’t comply.

Why Afrikan (Black) people are still an enslaved people

14-12-2005 11:01 | Anti-racism | Globalisation | Nottinghamshire

Even though the enslavement of Afrikan people was abolished by the European powers over 100 years ago, a new 'relationship' now exists between Afrika and the Western world which is a new form of enslavement which is probably more damaging to Afrikan people than it was 150, 200, 250, 300,350 years ago.
