Incineration - accepted around the world?

Incineration is not so accepted in Europe and around the world as we've been led to believe. There are protests against it in England, Germany, Japan, Malaysia, and so many other places. It's not so clean as we have been told, either. We want truthful answers from Durham Region, not the same old pap that passes for "information".

European Trip:
Will Durham Councillors travelling to Europe for 8 days starting on July 3 this year get to see/hear any of the anti-incinerator experts while there? Did they on their previous trip? I doubt it. The trip is being arranged by Ramboll Denmark Consultants, a company based in Europe that specializes in EFW facilities. Ramboll is a sub-consultant to Genivar Consultants (MacViro), and will be responsible for arranging the study tour to Europe.

That's right - have it all planned and tightly scripted by Subconsultants of MacViro - who are proponents of the incinerator hired by Durham Region, and who have been giving us all the one-sided information about how wonderful incineration is, how clean it is, how it is the best and only real solution for waste management for York/Durham.

Are you feeling more comfortable about the decision-making process now? We didn't think so.
