Residents from Sandymount, Ringsend, Bath Avenue and beyond, have been stepping up the fight on goverment plans to build an incinerator on the Poolbeg penninsula at Ringsend.
Last Sunday 17th June a family day took place (after the lashings of rain) to highlight Dublin Bay residents' concerns over the potential environmental, health and loss of democracy concerns they have.
This was followed by a picket outside the Dail last wednesday evening.

The vote was lost by 61 to 52.
One woman wanted the media to highlight that the incinerator would be as tall as Liberty hall and as long as Croke Park. Ominous indeed.
