Ze droegen gasmaskers om de giftige dreiging van de voorgestelde herontwikkeling van Falmouth Docks te symboliseren. De actie komt slechts enkele dagen voordat de Cornwall Council op 25 september 2025 moet stemmen over het controversi\u00eble plan.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Demonstranten zeggen dat het project - dat de sloop en bouw van een enorme nieuwe kade-infrastructuur en het baggeren van 850.000 ton vervuilde zeebodem omvat - een onaanvaardbaar risico vormt voor het milieu, de volksgezondheid en de lokale economie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1147\" height=\"1600\" src=\"https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-1147x1600.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-1147x1600.jpg 1147w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-596x832.jpg 596w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-768x1072.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-1101x1536.jpg 1101w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-1468x2048.jpg 1468w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_4048edfx2-scaled.jpg 1834w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1147px) 100vw, 1147px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u2b06\ufe0f Wij \u2764\ufe0f Falmouth ook.

Dit zijn zeldzame, langzaam groeiende habitats die beschermd worden door de <a href=\"https:\/\/sac.jncc.gov.uk\/site\/UK0013112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fal &amp; Helford SAC <\/a>- onomkeerbare vernietiging tegemoet gaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>- Gevaarlijk afval: Volgens de eigen schattingen van de haven kunnen er 12.000 vrachtwagenritten nodig zijn om verontreinigd sediment te verwijderen, wat gevolgen heeft voor de luchtkwaliteit, het verkeer en de veiligheid in Falmouth en daarbuiten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>- Uitbreiding cruiseschepen: Hoewel het plan wordt gepromoot als een mogelijkheid voor drijvende offshore windenergie, zijn campagnevoerders van mening dat de echte drijfveer het verdiepen van de haven is voor veel grotere cruiseschepen - die aanzienlijke emissies en beperkte lokale economische voordelen met zich meebrengen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actievoerders wijzen ook op een ernstige procedurefout van de Marine Management Organisation (MMO). In haar oorspronkelijke raadplegingsbrief (18 juli 2025) verklaarde de MMO ten onrechte dat het project geen milieueffectrapportage (MER) was en dat er geen milieuverklaring was verstrekt. Dit werd pas op 29 augustus gecorrigeerd, nadat belanghebbenden zoals de gemeenteraad van Falmouth hun mening al hadden gegeven - mogelijk onder een verkeerde indruk van de omvang van het project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n    <h2 id=\"callout-block_51054b35526a476f9fbe0bc55bfe7de0\" class=\"callout-heading callout-heading-advanced\">\n\n    \n        <span class=\"font--function-stencil size--fixed\">milieu<\/span>\n    \n    \n        <span class=\"font--function-stencil size--fixed\">de schade is<\/span>\n    \n    \n        <span class=\"font--function-stencil size--fixed\">zijn<\/span>\n    \n    \n        <span class=\"font--function-stencil size--fixed\">genegeerd<\/span>\n    \n    \n    <\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1094\" height=\"1600\" src=\"https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-1094x1600.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-1094x1600.jpg 1094w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-596x872.jpg 596w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-768x1123.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-1050x1536.jpg 1050w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-1400x2048.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/oceanrebellion.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MR2_3667edfx3-scaled.jpg 1751w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1094px) 100vw, 1094px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2b06\ufe0f <em>Binnenkort zullen de inwoners genieten van niveaus van luchtvervuiling die nooit eerder zijn ervaren - dat is het geschenk van cruiseschepen.
