An incinerator for Oxfordshire?

Oxford Brookes University and Oxford Friends of the Earth have teamed up to campaign against a proposal to establish an incinerator in Oxfordshire. There are several arguments against this, not least of which is that air pollution levels are already very high in this shallow bowl surrounded by the Chilterns, the Ridgway and so forth. They have a specific web page on the subject of waste where they argue that incineration is opposite to guidelines of reduce, reuse and recycle; guidelines that are at the heart of freecycling. A petition has been launched at petitiononline.com. If you have an opinion on this matter then I suggest you pay the website a visit and consider signing.
