Jump To Comment: 1Students protest against Ringaskiddy incinerator
A group of Limerick students are ending a five-day walk today when they arrive at the proposed site of the country's first toxic waste incinerator in Ringaskiddy.
Anti-incinerator protestors are welcoming the students' help in their campaign to stop the incinerator.
Cork Harbour Alliance for a Safe Environment has secured leave to appeal permission to build the incinerator in the High Court.
Chairperson Mary O'Leary has accused the Government of turning a blind eye to the alternatives to incineration that are much cleaner and safer for the environment.
