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.

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 [...]

PM 10 Air Pollution Kills
Air Pollution may kill 12 times more people in Poolbeg than in Tallaght or Clondalkin.
If Poolbeg pollution increases by just 20%, from 50ug/m3 to 60 ug/m3, then at least 26 times more people will be killed in Poolbeg. Hopefully DCC’s solution is not to kill more people in [...]

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

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 [...]

June 2008It seems a Dublin Bay Incinerator at Poolbeg
would cost at least 100,000 man-years of life.
This is for the first 15 years,for Dublin’s population of 1 million.

Apparently the Dublin Docklands Developers Authority has authorised the dumping of a mountain of potentially toxic slag beside Irishtown Nature Park. Apparently the EPA is toothless, indifferent and possibly even criminally negligent(a).

DCC’s sewage factory stinks and wastes tens of millions of emergency tax-payer cash, signed for by Mr J Gormley in November 2008. Whether this unforseeable situation is due to corruption or bad engineering by DCC is an open question. However DCC is used to [...]
