London High-Rise Fire Tragedy Result of Environmentalist Regulation
16th June 2017
The highrise in London which recently burned, killing many was so devastating because it was recently clad with exterior insulation material to make it more energy-efficient.
The fire started in a lower-floor kitchen and rapidly spread up the entire building due to a “chimney effect” caused by the cladding.
Insulation keeps heat in. Basically, they converted the building into a giant kiln.
Jeremy Corbyn blames cuts to local council funding for the tragedy, but this cladding was part of a multimillion-dollar renovation.
About 30,000 other buildings around Britain have also been covered with this insulating cladding.
