SIL02 - land at Shouldham and Marham

Objection to NCC
To: Caroline Jeffery, Principal Planner (Minerals and Waste Policy) Norfolk County Council Objection to Quarrying in AOS E and the overlap with SIL 02 at Shouldham and Marham, Norfolk I object to silica sand mining taking place in the area of Area Of Search (AOS) E and its surroundings as proposed in the Norfolk County Council Mineral & Waste Local Plan, Preferred Options July 2019. It is used for outdoor exercise by 1000s of people; young and old. The loss of long-established woodlands would be devastating for mental health and physical well-being. It would be a disaster for the biodiversity of flora and fauna supported by that ecosystem. The destruction of woodland, never to be restored, is unacceptable at a time when Govt's policy (Clean Growth Strategy) is to increase the number of trees in the UK - "Establish a new network of forests in England... plant 11 million trees". We are facing a Climate Crisis. Shouldham Warren is one of our precious planet's lungs, capturing 11,000 tonnes of C02 per year. The Warren provides clean air, home to precious biodiversity, valuable educational space for children and a recreational area well used by so many people. The lack of an improved glass recycling plan to increase the amount of glass cullet available to UK glass manufacturers makes further quarrying for silica sand at the current rate morally wrong. Our environment is our most precious inheritance," says DEFRA, so I urge Norfolk County Council to not allocate the woodlands and agricultural farmland in AOS E and remove AOS E from the Mineral & Waste Local Plan. I also object to quarrying in SIL 02. It is false of Norfolk County Council to say SIL02 has not been allocated whilst retaining 1/3 of the area in Area Of Search, AOS E. It has known mineral deposits, there is a willing landowner, that defines a preferred area. MOD (DIO) objected to the WHOLE of SIL02, I demand that NCC removes this overlap area from their M&WLP.

All the animals that live there deserve to stay, all the beautiful surroundings and views are being destroyed all over the world. We want the new generation to appreciate the history and landscapes around them, not be brought up in a concrete world. I appreciate this world, do you?

in addition to the information and wisdom above , i would like to further emphasize the immorality of Any further mineral extraction from the Earth .. extracting resources that have taken millions of years to form .. vast quantities of materials that we are totally incapable of replacing .. the Earth as a global system is totally interrelated .. and humans have interfered so much it's as if we are an auto-immune reaction in the global network, destroying the organism that we are a part of ..
IN recent years, an increasing number of Indigenous peoples who previously avoided communication with people of industrialised "developed" countries have come out specifically to let us know that sacking the Earth's ingredients & creating pollution is simply destroying the Earth.. there is no responsibility greater than what we owe the earth ..

I am absolutely disgusted at the proposal to destroy such a beautiful place as Shouldham Warren for what can only be described as human greed. It is a haven for wildlife and a beautiful place to visit, let children play and explore safely and walk dogs. We are slowly destroying our planet and this is yet another human attempt to ruin what is a truly beautiful place. It makes me feel really sad as well as very angry and I can only hope that you will listen to the thousands of objections and reconsider your plans.
Regards
Susan Sutton

Destroying what is natural for corporate gain is greedy. The destruction of natural habitat and destroying the homes of wildlife and the surrounding area for a beautiful village ruins the lives of the inhabitants and the wildlife.

Let's keep Norfolk beautiful. How can we be thinking of destroying Woodland with all the information we have on climate change!

Objection to NCC
To: Caroline Jeffery, Principal Planner (Minerals and Waste Policy) Norfolk County Council Objection to Quarrying in AOS E and the overlap with SIL 02 at Shouldham and Marham, Norfolk I object to silica sand mining taking place in the area of Area Of Search (AOS) E and its surroundings as proposed in the Norfolk County Council Mineral & Waste Local Plan, Preferred Options July 2019. It is used for outdoor exercise by 1000s of people; young and old. The loss of long-established woodlands would be devastating for mental health and physical well-being. It would be a disaster for the biodiversity of flora and fauna supported by that ecosystem. The destruction of woodland, never to be restored, is unacceptable at a time when Govt's policy (Clean Growth Strategy) is to increase the number of trees in the UK - "Establish a new network of forests in England... plant 11 million trees". We are facing a Climate Crisis. Shouldham Warren is one of our precious planet's lungs, capturing 11,000 tonnes of C02 per year. The Warren provides clean air, home to precious biodiversity, valuable educational space for children and a recreational area well used by so many people. The lack of an improved glass recycling plan to increase the amount of glass cullet available to UK glass manufacturers makes further quarrying for silica sand at the current rate morally wrong. Our environment is our most precious inheritance," says DEFRA, so I urge Norfolk County Council to not allocate the woodlands and agricultural farmland in AOS E and remove AOS E from the Mineral & Waste Local Plan. I also object to quarrying in SIL 02. It is false of Norfolk County Council to say SIL02 has not been allocated whilst retaining 1/3 of the area in Area Of Search, AOS E. It has known mineral deposits, there is a willing landowner, that defines a preferred area. MOD (DIO) objected to the WHOLE of SIL02, I demand that NCC removes this overlap area from their M&WLP.

We shouldn't be removing ancient woodland at all, for any reason. They are the public's inheritance not for sale for profit to a corporation.

Chopping down more trees, destroying a wonderful wildlife habitat and destroying the flora that grows here! !! Are you people so greedy that you will destroy another wonderful part of this country, trees give out life giving O2 and absorb carbon, what is wrong with your brain that you cannot see by doing this you are technically destroying your children's and grandchildren's future. If we continue to rape the planet we live on there will be no planet to live on. Use your brains it's not rocket science.

Our woodlands are more important than money, there being cut down for no reason other than profit , but this planet needs as many trees as it can get we should be planting them there's not enough as it is . You would also be destroying thousands of animals and insects habitat, making them homeless and vulnerable to death , please just leave the woods alone

It is unthinkable that destroying these beautiful woods is even being considered! They are a place for people to walk (with children, dogs, horses), a place to cycle and an important place for wildlife to live!!
