Would you like Eye to look like this in the future? More importantly, are you prepared to accept the pollution of the air you and your foodstuffs breathe / concentrate with some of the most dangerous toxins known ?
Unless we all act now, this is a very real possibility and don't let anybody convince you otherwise. It is important that as many people as possible write / email before March when Suffolk County Council will probably adopt the Waste Core Strategy as it stands - with Eye airfield earmarked for development. Once this has happened, it will be very difficult to oppose any future developments.
Here is a sample letter (with email addresses) courtesy of the Suffolk Preservation Society where you can find additional information.
Protest Meeting - Share it with your facebook friends
Protest Meeting: Print your own poster
If you value the clean air you breathe (Dioxin free!), the rural landscape and the relative quiet we are all priveleged to enjoy, then please write now - don't leave this to others, this campaign needs as much direct support as possible.
