Dyma cwpwl o luniau o'r brotest yn erbyn glo brig a ddigwyddodd ym Merthyr ar ddydd Sadwrn. Roedd y rali, y cyfarfod cyhoeddus a'r gig yn lwyddiant mawr ( er gwaetha'r sylw pitw a rhoddwyd iddo gan y BBC ac eraill) ac mae nifer o bwyntiau gweithredu gen i nawr yn dilyn o'r cyfarfod agored am y ffordd ymlaen. Rwyf yn bwriadu ysgrifennu at Jane Davidson i ofyn iddi wir ystyried cynnwys Ffos y Fran o fewn y buffer zone 500 m a fydd o bosib yn cael ei gyflwyno ymhen ychydig. Mae'n annerbyniol bod y glo brig yn yr ardal mor agos i dai pobl lleol. Mae son am fwy o glo brig ym Merthyr hefyd nawr, yn benodol ble mae fy rhieny yn byw yn Heolgerrig. Mae'n bwysig os oes rhaid cael glo brig yn yr ardal bod y buffer zone yn cael ei weithredu. Mae pobl wedi bod yn aros rhy hir am hwn, ac mae'n bwysig i weithredu yn awr.
Wedi i Huw Lewis siarad mor gryf o blaid gweithredu buffer zone yn yr ardal yn y Cynulliad yn ddiweddar, roeddwn i'n disgwyl ei weld o ar y rali. Ond na, doedd o ddim ar gyful y lle. Fe ddaeth Jill Evans ASE, Leanne Wood AC a Mike German. Fe wnaeth George Monbiot, gohebydd yn y Guardian siarad yn y rali, ynghyd a phrotestwyr lleol a Gordon James o Gyfeillion y Ddaear.

Here are a couple of pictures of the protest against open cast mining which was held in Merthyr on Saturday. The rally, the public meeting and the gig were a success ( regardless of the lack of coverage given to it by the BBC etc) and I took quite a lot of actions points from the meeting. I intend to write to Jane Davidson to raise with her again the fact that retrospective planning should be granted to Ffos y Fran in relation to the 500m buffer zone. It is unacceptable that this opencasting is taking place so close to people's homes. There are talks of further open cast developments in the area also- namely in Heolgerring where my parents live and where I grew up. Its important that if there has to be open cast in the area that the buffer zone is implemented. People have waited far too long for this, and we must act now.
Having listened to Huw Lewis's rousing speech lately at the Assembly with regards the buffer zone I thought that he would have turned up for the events in his area, but that wasn't to be. Jill Evans MEP, Leanne Wood AM and Mike German were amongst the politicians present. George Monbiot, a Journalist and climate change campaigner spoke at the rally, as did local campaigners, and Gordon James from Friends of the Earth.
