Elster Creek
James NEWBURY (Brighton) (09:44): The Elster Creek canal runs through my community like an artery. It deserves to be protected from plastic litter and toxins. The growing volume of plastic and polystyrene litter is causing harm to wildlife and humans. Residents have started a strong petition calling on the state government to partner with other authorities and the community to both dredge the canal and remove toxic waste from our beautiful Elwood.
