Charnwood Neighbours Against Wood Smoke Adrienne Williams The problem is that people don't follow advice, stoves are not fitted appropriately for the area, and usage is not policed so burners get away with anything.
And they know it.

Charnwood Adrienne Williams Sorry but it's you that needs to be educated.
You say you care but you aren't listening when facts are being put right in front of your face.
Education of wood burners about the reality of burning and how renewable energy is much better.

Adrienne Williams The best burner with the bestest wood fuel is still hundreds of times more polluting than central heating, be it gas, oil or heat pump.
And it goes downhill from this best-case scenario.
That’s what these con artists keep forgetting to mention.

People won’t replace the stoves they already have. They enjoy finding wood for free. You will never educate them. If you had asthma or COPD you would know what it is like to not be able to breathe properly.

Why won’t they work? The Clean air act worked before. It was the law and people complied. Wood burning stoves just came in by stealth. People don’t need them they just want them. Smokers believed a ban on cigarette smoking in public places wouldn’t work but it has.

Any “clean” stove needs to cope with anything! The people in my village make a hobby of collecting and storing logs! They want to feel they are getting heat for nothing from what they have scavenged!

How is a place where women cannot get abortions 'the land of freedom and opportunity'?!

What a grotesque and hypocritical excuse of a political party!

Speaking at UsdawUnion conference today, I set out Labour's plan to back our retail workers and tackle crime on our high streets.

Shoplifters might get away with it under a weak Tory government, but they won't on my watch.

Trouble is this is why they should be banned. People can’t be trusted. My friend’s sister just chucks anything on the fire. Otherwise she is lovely and seems very intelligent!

Adrienne Williams Charnwood Our neighbours were supposedly using 'kiln dried wood' on a ClearSkies stove and it still caused extremely dangerous pollution levels inside our house. 'Burn Better' is a myth, toxic fumes will always be present.

Charnwood Adrienne Williams Very unlikely that you have done a comprehensive survey of the neighbours near any of your installations. Many people (probably most) are not in a position to alert their neighbours that the toxic fumes are adversely affecting them.

Charnwood Adrienne Williams Any survey would need to be undertaken in confidence as most stokers take revenge for any dissent by burning more. Look at the comments made to campaigners on X to know this happens. Usually when they can’t provide any facts to back up their arguments. Happens in real life too.

Charnwood Adrienne Williams If you care about clean air you would support protections for neighbours. Ask Defra UK , Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities and HETAS to ensure regulations are fit for purpose and protect everyone, whether in SCAs or not. Its about proximity to other properties, not whether urban or rural.

Tackling noise is rarely a priority of governments so it does no harm to remind them that at least one in five of people in Europe are exposed to chronic levels of noise that can cause adverse health effects.
