Building a landfill in…

Building a landfill in Dresden, is not a good idea, not only will it affect the citizens of Dresden, it will also affect the nearby populations, like Chatham-Kent, Windsor, London and others. Specifically, the landfill can release harmful gases like methane and leachate, which can contaminate air, water, crops and soil. The landfill can also increase respiratory illnesses, cancer, and other chronic health problems. The landfill will naturally attract pests which can carry diseases and cause lots of damage to the population health. Bill 197 states that a landfill must be 3 km away from populated areas. This landfill will destroy agricultural production in the area, nearby property values can drop 5-15% or more, the population will plummet because home owners and renters will move out, the stench will spread across the area which will increase population decline. Please consider this comment, it is very important and you should keep these points in mind when making the decision, thank you.
