Response to the article, "Incinerators"
In this article, we are presented with reasons why it's a bad idea to burn our waste. After reading more of the negative points of incinerators, I am now more aware of what they can do. Once our waste is burned, it's discharge consists of toxic chemicals that then spreads in the atmosphere; the air we breathe (which the chemicals will enter into our bodies) and in our food chain. So forth, using an incinerator could waste our trash, meaning we could reuse, recycle, and compost our trash rather than having everything burned altogether. Incinerators can also affect global climate change, and are sited more in the poor and rural areas. Now, I agree that incinerators are bad, but hopefully we can find ways to improve them.
