Do you ever smell smoke from something burning in the air?

​​

This smoke is coming from burning Plastics, Tires, Chemical Waste, E-Waste, Heavy Metals, Medical Waste, Packaging Foams, Drywall, Textiles and many others from the MULTIPLE BURNING RUBBISH DUMPS around the Kya Sand area.

​​​​​

If you LIVE or WORK inside the above circle then YOU are BREATHING these TOXIC CHEMICALS!!

​​

These include DIOXINS, POC's, VOC's, PAH's and HCB's, some of the most POSIONOUS CHEMICALS to human health.

​​​​

HEALTH RISKS include: Headaches, Dizziness, Respiratory Disorders, Asthma, Developmental Disorders, Cancer, Immune System Suppression and Reproductive Disorders, among many others...

​​​

We are taking the Government to Court to force them to take action.

​

But the wheels of justice turn SLOWLY in South Africa. Even IF we win ALL of our Court Cases against the authorities it will still take YEARS before they are forced to take any action!

COMMUNITY SPONSORED SECURITY SOLUTION

The responsible authorities are UNABLE to stop the burning at these rubbish dumps. This is due to a number of reasons including a lack of resources/lack of interest/lack of funding.

​​​​

We are already engaged in a Court Action against the City to force them to do something about the problem. However, even if we win ALL our Court Applications, this process will still take YEARS before they are forced to take any action by a Court Order. 

​​​

In the meantime, our AIR is being POISONED by the TOXIC CHEMICALS that pour out of the various burning rubbish dumps 24/7.

We NEED to solve this problem OURSELVES!

​

We cannot afford to wait for government authorities to do something. By their own admission, the authorities do not have the capacity to do anything to stop the burning.

​​​

If we want the burning to stop, then we need to implement our own 24/7 PRIVATE SECURITY SOLUTION!

​​​​​​

This initiative currently has a proposal from Night Guard Security to put a STOP to the BURNING at ALL of the burning dump sites around the Kya Sand area.

​

​Note that Night Guard will be engaged as a Service Provider and that they have given us a community rate on their quote to support this initiative. 

​​

However, any other Security Companies are welcome to provide their own quotes for resolving this problem.

 

If you would like to provide your own quote, please get in touch with us via the WhatsApp group.

​

​​

The Extent of the Problem

If you live within the red circle below, you are BREATHING the DANGEROUS, TOXIC FUMES being released from the BURNING RUBBISH at the Kya Sand Burning dumps.

​

When you smell burning plastic/rubber/rubbish in the air, it is these noxious smoke and fumes that are pouring out from the burning Kya Sand Burngin rubbish dumps.

​

These rubbish fires are burning 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

​

Up to 200 trucks are dumping rubbish at these locations every day!
