Opinion: Take back toxic waste

Corry van der Sanden

27 January 2007 - I personally know the little village Salaise sur Sanne, it is located at a beautiful spot, very quiet, and now it is in turmoil because the toxic waste of the Probo Koala is to be processed there. It is a disgrace!!!!! The people I know there would like to move because of the waste being processed there. But the value of the houses has dropped considerably!!! Is this the situation we all want? I think not. Let the waste be taken back to where it came from!!
