The health of people is being put at risk as a result of air pollution from planned burns of native vegetation. Pyromaniacs in the Victorian Government have drawn up their latest plans to burn Grantville bushland. Bureaucrats in the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action’s Forest Fire Management division say they plan burns starting with 22 hectares in Stanley Road Grantville which they expect to light in February and continue to June. The proposed burns are in close proximity to houses, and to our farm. The pollution is likely to cause breathing difficulties for many and may result in strokes and heart failure.It won't be healthy for our livestock either!
