The greens don't want it dumped at sea, the nimbys don't want it spread on 
the fields. Neither group has so far volunteered to stop generating it.

UK had to stop dumping it in the North Sea due to EU agreements. Atlantic 
dumping wasn't affected nor did it cause a problem, but UK government went 
one better as usual and stopped it completely. Not surprising really as it 
would have meant London and Edinburgh would have had to comply, Liverpool 
and Glasgow wouldn't.
