Cornwall's secret resource - waste

The Incinerator proposed for St Dennis failed to get Planning Permission - the last benevolent action of a Dying Council!
SITA officials were bewildered.
There is still out there a school of thought which favours a single site solution to our waste disposal (in spite of the carbon footprint) and that solution is an incinerator. Those involved in writing the original report by AEA for Cornwall County Council are still banging the same drum regardless of subsequent research and development. One of them, indeed, is now working for Defra.
Localised and properly tailored solutions to our waste disposal must be an integral part of our progress to a sustainable future in Cornwall - and an incinerator is way down the Hierarchy, as well as going counter to the proximity principle - which principle will become ever more important as the cost of oil starts to climb, as it assuredly will!
There are other solutions. Any one able to should help our new Councillors to understand all the implications of the alternatives, so that they can come to a sensible, rational and sustainable waste strategy.
