The Anglican Diocese of Canberra/Goulburn opposes proposed waste incinerators over health and environmental concerns, urging public input on the project.
The Anglican Diocese of Canberra/Goulburn has formally raised concerns over proposed waste-to-energy incinerators, following a unanimous Synod decision in Goulburn.
The motion, backed by clergy and community members, highlights health and environmental risks, particularly air pollution and ash disposal, amid the NSW government’s review of Veolia’s $600 million project near Tarago and Parkes.
Church leaders stress the stance is rooted in public health and stewardship, not politics, and promote alternatives like reduced packaging and expanded organics collection.
They urge Anglicans to submit to an Upper House inquiry led by Nichole Overall and Rod Roberts, with a public hearing planned in Goulburn and submissions due October 31, emphasizing their role in amplifying rural voices and supporting informed environmental decision-making.
