Kourtney Kardashian joins Kendra Wilkinson as they protest disposal of toxic LA wildfire waste at Calabasas landfill

Kourtney Kardashian joined Kendra Wilkinson and other locals at the Calabasas Landfill protest on Thursday.

The reality TV star, 45, and the former Playboy model, 39, were among those fighting against the dumping of hazardous waste and ash from January’s Palisades fires at a landfill right outside city limits.

The site is in proximity to an elementary school, and the residents believe the debris poses an ongoing health threat to the locals. 

During the protest, Kourtney — who recently revealed her breastfeeding plans — gave an interview to local news stations, and said, ‘We just want to make sure that it’s not coming here, and that it goes to a place where there’s no people around.’ 

When asked what she wanted to say to Governor of California, Gavin Newsom, 57, the Poosh founder replied, ‘Protect Calabasas, please. It’s not cool that all this is coming here.’

‘It’s not cool that all these toxic chemicals are coming to Calabasas,’ she added.

Another sign hit out at Newsom with the statement, ‘Newsom is anti-environment.’ 

There were also signs that read, ‘Don’t Poison My Playground!’ and ‘Calabasas Is Not an Ashtray.’ 

The mom-of-three protested in an all-black look, wearing a sweater, joggers, and sneakers, along with sunglᴀsses. 

Meanwhile Kendra kept comfortable in a white tank top and a pair of light blue jeans, with her blonde hair pulled into a high ponytail. 

Sheriff’s deputies responded to the scene, resulting in one arrest.

The Calabasas Landfill is one of three L.A. County sites receiving Phase 2 fire debris, including ash, soil, and home remnants. 

The protest occurred after L.A. County Superior Court Judge Stephen Goorvitch rejected a temporary restraining order aimed at preventing ash disposal in Calabasas.

Despite the setback, residents are continuing their campaign to have the toxic waste moved to a distant desert area.

The Kardashians all had to evacuated their Hidden Hills and Calabasas mansions during the LA fires.

They had to leave after an apocalyptic, fast-moving inferno, named the Kenneth Fire, threatened to rip through the desirable neighborhoods – with the famous family all living just six miles from one another.

Fortunately for the famous family, none of their homes were affected by the fires. 

Evacuation orders for Calabasas and Hidden Hills were later lifted.

Not all were so fortunate, as the homes of Mel Gibson, Paris Hilton, Anthony Hopkins, Tina Knowles, John Goodman, Candy Spelling, Milo Ventimiglia, and Miles Teller were among those destroyed.

The Los Angeles fires, which burned for weeks as firefighters worked to get them under control, killed at least 29 people, destroyed more than 16,000 structures and torched over 57,000 acres of land in the Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Pasadena and Altadena.

The total economic loss from the fires is estimated to be $250 billion, which includes factors such as anticipated cleanup costs, housing displacement and businesses shutting down.

Real estate losses from the Palisades and the Eaton fires are predicted to surpᴀss $30 billion, according to the Los Angeles Times.
