De Canadese professor Paul-André Larose, Ph.D. Fysica en collega van nobelprijswinnaar Dr Bertram N. Brockhouse, schreef onlangs het volgende over afvalverbranding:

"The fact of the matter is that incineration, while not fatally affecting 100% of the population in terms of eventual morbidity, WILL AFFECT 100% OF THE POPULATION, as it will develop an additional - and unwanted - chemical burden. This is a type of risk that will affect everyone, even those who have an immune system that can overcome, within a human lifetime, the traumatic actions of toxic material spewed into the biosphere. This form of peripheral damage will not be limited to those few unfortunate casualties that the incinerator proponents would like us to limit ourselves to. Moreover, it is not something that people will have the opportunity to refuse to ingest, as we all have a need for air, water and food."
