A little something for the public petitions committee
Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to (a) immediately ban the construction of new waste incinerators and large biomass burners, and shut all existing plants within 5 years; (b) improve the monitoring of emissions from existing waste incinerators; and (c) accelerate Scotlands drive to reduce, reuse and recycle waste.
The content of the petition provides information on the potentially detrimental impact on pollution, climate change, public finance and non-renewable resources that burning of waste is likely to contribute to.
Petition here and background here
I have also received some interesting information on autoclaving of waste from Icare which will form the subject of a post HwLDP consultation period blog post
