This just continues to be a clear and continuous danger to all citizens who live and traverse this environment.
I am certain that many citizens over the years have developed serious chronic health problems as a result of the Beetham dump/ landfill and other activities which facilitate the accumulation of dangerous toxic material in the area.
Then again, this is just another national brutal reality which we have come to accept.

it was a more plastic type burning smell
not the “normal” rubbish smell

i figure the burnt poop smell might be safer

PM10 are very small particles found in dust and smoke. They have a diameter of 10 micrometres (0.01 mm) or smaller.
PM10 particles are small enough to get into your throat and lungs. High levels of PM10 can make you cough, your nose run and eyes sting.

People with heart or lung conditions might have more symptoms when PM10 levels are high. Symptoms can include wheezing, chest tightness or difficulty breathing.

What you can do when PM10 levels are high
If PM10 particle levels are high, you can:

-avoid being outside in the smoke or dust, especially if you’re experiencing symptoms
-close your windows and doors
-if you have asthma, follow your asthma action plan
-if you have a heart or lung condition, follow your treatment plan
