In many parts of the world even the question of incinerating trash instead of coal is still meaningful and that one should be far less controversial.
- sergeykish 6y agoLooks like incinerator may leak toxins [1]. It is possible to construct modern incinerator that should not leak [2]. So Europe can afford it, can "many parts of the world"? Still questions remain * Should we mark it as clean energy? * Should we subsidy it? Or should we subsidy recycling?
