   Comments: Waste incineration produces more Co2 than any other form of waste treatment, and many reports show a connection with high infant mortality, illness and reduced average lifespan. This is not acceptable.

   Comments: The threat of incinerators to the environment and to the health of the community, particularly our young people is sufficient reason to sign this petition. et Scotland lead the way and ban these monsters.

    Comments: Incineration is crazy. We must recycle everything! If we burn it we have to then mine it again - we cannot keep plundering the earth and expect it to carry on as we know it.

    Name: Karen Mackay on Sep 9, 2009

    Comments: There is no way onthis Earth that waste incineration can be considered to be a solution of dealing with waste. There has not been enough investigation surrounding heath or environmental effects from fine particulate emmissions from these plants and until the Government makes a stance to investigate this then there should be absolutely no incinerators in the U.K. We need accurate peer reviewed research to ensure that we have all the ansers.

    Comments: Incineration can never be the BPEO for the management of waste - the cost to the public purse is greater than for most other technologies - the tables used by SEPA to justify support are so simplistic that not all factors are included- the data on health impacts is based on desk top studies and assumptions as opposed to research - they will incur Co2 Tax in years to come - more jobs would be created from recycling technologies - recycling will have to be reduced to feed the burners with enough of the relevant calorific waste, including plastic - the highly toxic ash will still have to be landfilled. The precautionary principle has been ignored in the decision to indulge in such a potentially dangerous technology.

    Comments: With proper government initiatives and fiscal incentives aimed specifically at stopping unecessary packaging, poorly made products, better designed products with secondary uses built in to their end of life - there would be no need for incineration & large amounts of landfill.

    Comments: With so little firm scientific evidence of the safety of incineration and plenty evidence that anything which polutes the air is environmentally damaging and potentially dangerous to health, the precautionary principle should apply to incineration. More attention should be paid to ways of curtting down waste. David Middleton

    Comments: Incineration is not safe, not sensible, and not sustainable. All thermal treatment/incineration facilities, even those with the “best available technology”, produce and discharge toxic emissions. There are many health studies linking incineration with increased risks for cancer, respiratory and heart disease, birth defects, and other disorders. Incinerators are a public subsidy to the makers of throw-away products and packaging. Instead of burning the evidence of their wastefulness, we need to hold them accountable for designing products and packaging that can be re-used and recycled. Incinerators encourage wasting.

    Comments: Experience of dairy farmers losing their herds and serious doubts over the safety of incineration for human health are sufficicent reason to stop planngn consents for incineration pending further, independent,scientific investigation
