Dioxins or Zero Waste?

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Wednesday March 05, 2003 13:46author by Graham Caswell - Green Partyauthor email caswell at indigo dot ie Report this post to the editors

Is this the start of Incineration in Ireland?

Incinerator: n. (Late 20th Century) An industrial furnace in which valuable resources were needlessly burned, creating toxic gases and ash. This practice was ended in the early 2,000's with the introduction of ZERO WASTE.

Bord Pleanála's decision to approve plans for the State's first municipal waste incinerator is a mistake. Not only will it take pressure away from recycling and package-reduction measures in the short term but it will build up toxicity in the environment and the ash waste in the long term.

Incineration is NOT necessary - except for those with a vested interested in over-packaging, planned oblesecence and the waste industry. Zero Waste is a viable option that is working elsewhere in the world. See:
