Slogans against building garbage incineration plants

Please see that European and American countries have issued building bans and closed incinerators. 1985, the United States cancelled more than 137 garbage incinerators. 1992, Ontario, Canada passed a decree prohibiting the use of incinerators; 1996 52 incinerators in the Great Lakes of North America ended their operation; Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and other European countries have also issued bans on the construction of incinerators; Our neighbor Japan shut down more than 2,000 industrial waste incinerators permanently or temporarily at the end of 1998. By July 2000, 4,600 waste incineration facilities in Japan had stopped operating. 1June 997 16, the Korean government forced the closure of three large state-owned waste incineration plants; Even the Philippines, a poor country with a serious garbage problem, has issued a ban on building garbage incineration facilities. In March, 20001year, the long report "Incinerators and Human Health" published by the International Greenpeace Research Laboratory of the University of Exeter, England, corrected many traditional misunderstandings through the special study on the relationship between dioxins and incinerators: incinerators only changed the forms of toxic substances, and some substances were even more toxic than the original substances; The total amount of toxic gases will increase after incineration. In May, 20001,at the conference of plenipotentiaries of various countries held in Stockholm, Sweden, 9 1 countries (including China) voted in favour and adopted the POPS Convention (later renamed as the Stockholm Convention). According to the Convention, all countries must immediately control and treat 12 substances with high residue, high biological enrichment and high toxicity in the environment, namely POPS (residual organic pollutants).
