"No technology can make everything disappear - 'gasification', 'pyrolysis' and 'plasma arc' produce the same pollutants as standard incinerators.

"Our communities and planet need safe, healthy, and just solutions:

  • Pollution prevention, not incineration [and not incinerator fuel production, as proposed for Pinkham Wood]
     
  • Expanded recycling and 'zero waste' programs [not just 'zero waste to land-fill']
     
  • Green, truly renewable energy
     
  • Safe technologies, not incinerators in disguise
     
  • Truth in advertising." [Hey, steady on!]
