Fire-induced health impacts by the Forestry Corporation of NSW Pt 2
Negative externalities occur when the consumption or production of a commodity causes a harmful effect to a third party.

Fire-induced health impacts by the Forestry Corporation of NSW Pt 1
The state-owned Forestry Corporation of NSW (FCNSW) is doing ‘Planned Burns’ to the unwanted left-overs after logging and clear felling Tuckers Nob State Forests. The so-called ‘plantations’ or cellulose factory is or was a rich bio-diverse ecosystem before the destruction.
Many residents live in the area and wildlife has moved back into the sprouting desert.The area has been declared a ‘hazard’ and 36 ha are being incinerated. They call it ‘Hazard Reduction’ because they have dried out the microclimate and increased the bushfire risk.
Through a government decision and outmoded management practices every living being with a lung is now being wilfully exposed to toxic smoke from incineration.
It is not bushfire smoke from climate disruption, but an intentional collateral to extracting cellulose from bio-diversity which has to be subsidised by tax payers. This is turning the area and the breathing beings into a sacrifice zone.
The air-filled sacs in the lungs, the alveoli are forced to act as a cost-effective vacuum cleaner for forestry’s “Hazard Reduction” fallout, cleaning up their ‘debris’.
There are no health warnings issued. The reduced air quality leads to exposure to bushfire smoke. Fire-induced health impacts lead to mortalities from particulate matter, increased cardio-respiratory hospital admissions and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases.

"Fine particles, often described as PM2.5 (particles of 2.5 micrometres in diameter or less). These particles can remain suspended in the air for extended periods and, owing to their tiny size, can penetrate deep into the lungs when inhaled." > https://theconversation.com/bushfires-in-victoria-how-to-protect-yourself-if-the-air-is-smoky-where-you-live-215789

It looks like street-by-street air-pollution data isn't available just to view. It's not totally clear, but it seems you have to sign up to see the pollution data, but signing up involves putting a sensor on your bike, and they don't accept just anyone; they want geographic dispersion.
Long story short: This air-pollution data is not available for Santander sharebike cyclists to view. 😦

Saddle Sense started as a King's College London dissertation and is now collecting nearly 1M data points from bike-mounted air quality sensors across London. The result? Street-by-street air pollution maps that help cyclists cut their exposure by 20-70%.
This is what citizen science looks like in practice: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/saddle-sense-real-time-air-quality-data-for-cyclists-by-cyclists
"About 12 percent of Monterey County’s oil and gas wells are located within 200 feet of a river or creek. This includes the Salinas River, which runs through the San Ardo oil field, and is a critical source of the county’s groundwater.
"In December 2025, over 4,000 gallons of oil and toxic wastewater spilled in the San Ardo oil field, just over a mile from where the Sargent Creek feeds the Salinas River. It is unconfirmed whether that spill was connected to an active or idle well.”
