National anti-incineration events

Sheffield: local support

National protests against incineration have been organised across the UK today. Several anti-incineration groups are taking part in the Global Day of Action to call on government and industry to stop burning waste and to start recycling.

Why not see what your local group is doing for anti-incineration day or have your say by contacting Maragret Beckett.
