Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4I am very concerned about the move to bring incineration to Ireland. It is a poisonous technology. Are local campaign groups working together on this?
The only campaign that I am aware of, is a group against the
Co. Meath incinerator. I don't know if there is a national group.
There are also groups such as Galway for a Safe Environment and
Cork for a Safe Environment who are basically trying to promote
sensible waste policies that do not include incineration and hope
that if councils etc listen to them, then maybe incinerators won't
be built.
However it is quite clear that there is an agenda to force incinerators
through and pay lip service to recycling. You will have noticed that most
of the debate in the 'media' has been reduced to 'Landfill' or 'Incineration'
when clearly this is not the actual case.
Some URLs for these groups are:

Maybe it's time to start a co-ordinating campaign. I think this
is also an issue that the various Anti-Bin Tax campaigns
could also take up, since they are related subjects
There is a very strong campaign in Ringsend (CRAI) Combined Resident Against Incinerators with the full support of the local councilors and T.DS
Contact Tom Prendeville at Earthwatch - 01-4785101/0 for details on this or other anti-Incineration campaigns.
