Padraic Ryan got the objective facts on incineration from Imperial College London's Professor of Waste Management, David C. Wilson (he thinks it's a great idea).
Christina McSorley asked the author of a controversial ESRI report on the matter, economist Paul Gorecki, to explain why he thinks the incinerator should go ahead. She also spoke to Labour Councillor Dermot Lacey (also in favour) about some of the important, non-economic issues in the debate, and to the party's environment spokeswoman Joanna Tuffy (anti-incineration...kind of).
Valerie Flynn gauged local opposition to the incinerator. She also talked to a spokesman for CRAI, the local anti-incinerator campaign group, about the evidence behind the group's allegation that incineration causes health problems, and about whether the group are just a load of nimbys.
And Louise Finan has this week's environment news bulletin.
Presented by Padraic Ryan. Reports by Christina McSorley and Valerie Flynn. Research by Jeannie McCann. News by Louise Finan.
