UK residents fuming after 32ft mountain of rubbish grows so tall it can be seen on GOOGLE EARTH
- 2 years ago
Homeowners living in Willenhall, West Mids., say they are fed-up after a nearby industrial estate became a dumping ground for fly-tippers three years ago.
They claim nothing has been done to rectify the problem and the towering pile of waste has now grown so high it can be seen on Google Earth. The pile continues to expand with items including metal, furniture, children's toys and household waste repeatedly being dumped at the Arrow Industrial Estate.
Mum-of-two Gina Howells, 34, who lives nearby, said: "We've kicked up a fuss in the past but nothing appears to have been done."Once again we find ourselves in the position of asking for help because the problem has not been sorted after all this time. "It can be seen on Google Earth, so it's basically visible from space. It's that big and nobody seems to care despite it being a health and fire risk. "It absolutely stinks and we've seen rats running about. I'm worried for the health of my children and don't understand how it has been allowed to grow this big. "It's left our area looking like a Third World slum."
