This book looks fascinating, especially if you are interested in incineration, which I currently am

"In 1986 the Khian Sea, carrying 1000s of tons of incinerator ash from Philadelphia, began a 2-yr journey, roaming the world's oceans in search of a dumping ground"

The black summer bushfires’ toll on the vets and carers helping Australian wildlife

"When the 2019-20 fires erupted Veterinarians and carers responded on the front lines. In December 2019 the sky went black in many parts of Australia. In the following weeks, unprecedented bushfires killed 33 people, destroyed thousands of homes, decimated about 3bn animals and 24m hectares of habitat...Smoke was circumventing the globe."

"The trauma doesn’t go away."

Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) is causing hotter, drier conditions and is increasing the risk of bushfires.

> Leave fossil fuels in the ground
> Stop incinerating bio-diversity
> Pay vets to treat Australian wildlife injured by bushfires and combustion engine infrastructure impacts.
> Support volunteer carers for wildlife

Are industrial scale burns incinerating Australian biodiversity?

"The “industrial” scale burns which are designed to “process landscapes as efficiently as possible” are known to frequently kill – in 2022, Victorian authorities accidentally incinerated several koalas when they set a forest alight, and evidence suggests fires set in Tasmania have killed endangered devils."

"A complete “rethink” of fire management practices by state authorities" is needed.

"Burning household rubbish in giant incinerators to make electricity is now the dirtiest way the UK generates power, BBC analysis has found...

Nearly half of the rubbish produced in UK homes, including increasing amounts of plastic, is now being incinerated. Scientists warn it is a “disaster for the climate” - and some are calling for a ban on new incinerators...

The BBC examined five years of data from across the country, and found that burning waste produces the same amount of greenhouse gases for each unit of energy as coal power, which was abandoned by the UK last month..."

"By placing trackers inside packages of soft plastic that were collected by Sainsbury’s and Tesco in July 2023 and February 2024, campaigners found that most of them ended up being incinerated rather than recycled."

A few weeks ago I started collecting soft plastic packaging to leave at Sainsbury's.
I wondered how they seperated the different types of plastic, now I know they don't.
