Jump To Comment: 3 2 1Try moving beyond the whole NIMBY thing and just accept the fact of modern/late capitalist living. Reduce the risk of pollution and accidents etc. from the facility and get over this utopian-informed whinning.
Notice how the proposed incinerator in Meath last year, was quickly stopped, in a few weeks, despite having less vocal and long running oppostion than in south Cork, hmm wonder why?
Could it perhaps be that it was close to MCreevy's constituency, and more importantly was right in the middle of billionare stud farm country? So the conclusion must be that the health (financial and otherwise) of these horses is more important than that of the people of Cork!
Quelle surprise, this type of policy is after all coming from ex PD now FF minister Cullen, maybe FFs palms have been greased with money from the incinerator lobby?
I also heard on the radio 1 at 1 today that the proposed incinerator will have a spare unused capacity of 85,000 tonnes while this country produces only 15,000 tonnes of toxic waste, and it's not supposed to import any, yeah right.
Hopefully the appeal will stop the incinerator plans, but if not we could have a Cork Churchilian new year... I can see it now "We will fight them on the beaches (harbour) etc"!With this and the no show of the cork school of music, roll on the declaring of the peoples
republic of cork!
OK, So now what do we do?
