Incineration is outdated and flies in the face of the UK's ambition to become carbon neutral by 2050. It should be the last resort for waste which can be recycled or reused and in fact has the effect of reducing recycling. The siting of this proposed incinerator will have a detrimental health effect over a much wider area than just its immmediate position.The consultation did not include the West Norfolk area which will be significantly affected from the incinerator given prevailing weather conditions.
