3.5 Tonnes Of Laughing Gas Collected During Notting Hill Carnival Clean Up

Tree cleaners have collected 3.5 tonnes of laughing gas after Notting Hill Carnival, which is causing delays in the clean-up process. The vast number of nitrous oxide cans must be separated from other trash for safety reasons, which is proving to be a time-consuming task. Crews expect to have collected four full dumps – with more than 1,000 canisters containing the gas with the street name “hippy crack” – by Friday. SUEZ UK said its teams are working around the clock to clear the area and have faced “unprecedented challenges this year due to police barricades and the large volume of nitrous oxide canisters that have to be separated by hand for safety reasons”. Gary O’Hagan, head of Notting Hill’s clean-up operation for the waste management company, said the sheer volume of cans was “explosive” and causing crews a “real problem”.

“Containers must be manually separated from general waste as they can explode if compressed, posing a serious health and safety risk. “This has slowed down the operation considerably and we will have to rethink the collection method next year. By Friday we are likely to have filled four containers with over a thousand or more containers.’ The Standard understands that nearly five tonnes are expected to be collected by Friday. Kensington and Chelsea councilor Emma Will said: “The carnival is a wonderful reflection of our diverse, multicultural community, but we also want to get the streets back to normal as quickly as possible with minimal disruption. “The 200 crew members have been significantly slowed down by the sheer volume of containers, but are still working very hard to complete the cleanup as quickly as possible.” SUEZ UK has received complaints from local residents about the time it has taken to clear the streets, with one person claiming on Twitter that it was “terrible”. More than 200 waste collectors and street cleaners work to clean up the area and recycle 30 percent of all waste. 300 tons of garbage have been cleared from the streets / Kensington and Chelsea Council It is estimated that 300 tons of garbage have been collected. Kensington and Chelsea Council said the huge amount of discarded food cans, drink cans and nitrous oxide canisters weighed as much as 25 double-decker London buses. Laughing gas, or nitrous oxide, is an increasingly popular drug. Doctors in the UK have issued a warning about a rise in hospital admissions following this, following a series of warnings from police. Specialist neurologists and toxicologists have revealed that there has been a 257 per cent increase in serious poisoning from gas abuse, with young people being admitted to emergency departments around every two weeks, according to the Independent. In a 2019-20 Crime Survey for England and Wales, almost 9 per cent of 16 to 24-year-olds said they had taken nitrous oxide in the last year, a rise of 6.1 per cent since 2012-13. the Guardian reported. .
