Dumping in Duffy

If you don’t have water you die too.

Now how much would you like in your lungs?

Can we drop the absolutist craziness from all sides please?

It is weird how there is so much dismay and annoyance when people dump their visible rubbish inappropriately yet so many people seem to think it is okay to dump CO2 rubbish in the atmosphere without penalty or without compensating those who will suffer as a result and/or those who will have to clean it up. One thing would be certain – the bogans who dump in our bush will be anti the carbon tax. Then again, one 2CC announcer was today railing against a carbon tax and another was raging against illegal dumpers in Canberra who refuse to be responsible for their own visible rubbish. Media hypocrisy lives on.

And this silly nonsense just about sums up the pro-carbon tax, greenie idiots. Their arguments have now been so comprehensively trashed they are now spouting gibberish and crap. co2 promotes life, it is plant food. It is not a pollutant. If we don’t have co2 our planet dies.

Coppers logs cant be much of a problem. You will find piles of them in the bush around picnic sites and along the river corridors. Usually not far from where they where removed.

I grew up in adjoining Rivett from 1971 and do not recall any coppers log facility in Weston Creek. Happy to corrected regarding this matter….

What is a ‘coppers log’? Sounds like a policeman’s notebook. Seriously, I have no idea what you’re talking about.

what the hell does the carbon tax got to do with illegal dumping? All kinds of environmental vandalism will continue to thrive under a carbon tax. People will still dump. Hoons will be hoons. Utedrivers will still speed. Developers and their mates in government will continue to bulldoze bushland to make way for McMansion suburbs. The carbon tax is not designed to bring on some kind of utopian alternate reality (the nirvana of Bob Brown’s dreams). It will not make unrelated problems magically go away.

I love how you assume people against carbon tax must automatically be pro-dumping, pro-vandalism, anti-environment rednecks.

Whooooossh….. That was the sound of Chip’s point flying way over your head.

And what steps are you taking to offset your own carbon output?

People should have the option. Pay twenty odd dollars to release their carbon in the atmosphere or get a ton of carbon delivered to the front yard to do with as they please. They can then pay the ACT tip fees to dump it.

Chip, if you think that CO2 is ‘rubbish’ in the atmosphere, I just wish that you and your fellow fanatics were consigned to live in an atmosphere without it. Unlike old mattresses, CO2 keeps plants alive.

Good luck with surviving in the moonscape.

Idiot.

new rule of blogosphere: first person to mention carbon tax on a topic not remotely related to carbon pricing automatically loses the argument. Most tenuous link or outrageous vilification of pro or anti carbon tax believer per month wins a prize, a la the Mulley Cup. We can call it the ‘Allan Jones we wuz stopped at the border’ prize. Or … the ‘Chip’

Way to try and drag this into another carbon tax debate, mate there’s plenty of threads already there for that, go bug them!

Pity. There’s some useful things there… the furniture but also the builders’ waste, lots of recyclables. Time was people would be keen to get their hands on that stuff.

It’s slobs like these who drive the ‘nanny’ state, and I bet they’re the most vocal critics of a nanny state.

I think plausibly_deniable’s idea is on the right path. As long as the corpses are recycled as pet food. Defeats the purpose to leave them lying there.

This is what happens when you have bogans infesting your suburb. Can’t we have them declared a pest? Then the pig-shooters will have something to do instead of trashing the national parks.

Shhh don’t tell everyone your diabolical plans, or before you know it the Greens will move to declare bogans an endangered species in the territory, and then where will we be? They’ll be the new worm lizards — everyone looking to stop future development will be combing the dirt looking for signs of bogan activity so they could declare their native habitat a protected area or cultural site

I’ve heard, back in the day this fenced off site was a copper log processing factory.
IE where they made all those little round log fences that surround a lot of parks in Canberra.

I wonder if the soil is contaminated with Chromated copper arsenate.

If it is I’d say they have a bigger problem than a little bit of bogon trash.

This is what happens when you don’t have a semi-annual Kerbside Clean-up.

Definitely a Canberra Chronicle in that first photo 😉

Is there still rubbish there? Whereabouts is it?

Is this down between Warragamba St and Cotter Rd?

It’s gross, not to mention a pity that it looks like a perfectly good single mattress. Freecycle would love it.

Gross dumping doesn’t have to take place in an out of the way spot tho… there was half a household worth of furniture and junk dumped at the charity bins at Duffy shops on the weekend.
