Added Air Pollution From Poolbeg Incinerator May Increase Deaths By Twenty To Forty to Eighty Times.
Chart: Relative risk of deep vein thrombosis from fine particulate matter.
Reference: http://archinte.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/full/168/9/920#AUTHINFO
Interpretation
The current air pollution burden in Poolbeg from PM-10 air pollution particles is already at the dangerous level of 50 µg/m3. A Poolbeg Incinerator will increase air pollution [...]

Tiny particles from incinerators will reduce your life by up to two years.
Nobody understands the science. That’s why we have Fianna Fail.
You can trust your clever politicians to protect you by directing their political appointees, dressed up as scientists, at EPA, Bord Pleanala, and elsewhere._________________http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2009/0610/1224248531633.html

Poolbeg is already polluted above EU air pollution standards. The Poolbeg Incinerator to be operated by an offshore-entity will add to the particulates burden. The effects of the microscopic PM2.5 and PM1.0 particulates are not understood, they are not measured, but in a parallel to the Tobacco Industry, the premature deaths could lead [...]

European Union policy could cost you 2 years of life.
The European Respiratory Society has published its concern about the mismatch between European Union policy and the best scientific evidence.
They state that a reduction in the yearly average PM2.5 particulates to 15μg per cubic metre(c) would result in life expectancy gains, at age [...]

Assessment by the WHO and Other Authorities
Based on World Health Organisation Air Quality Guidelines the British Society for Ecological Medicine has estimated that a 1μg per cubic metre increase in PM2.5 particulates(a) would lead to a reduced life expectancy of 40 days per person over [...]
