Moreton Bay Regional Council and Cr Brian Battersby definitely deserve a lot of thanks for getting the Bunya Tip gas flare system installed and operational.

The report is that it is the biggest environmental protection project locally since sewerage was installed.

The flare is burning off 200 cubic metres of gas/hour. Most of this is methane – one of the most destructive greenhouse gases – which is now not going up into the atmosphere causing global warming. This is what needs to happen.
