Book Description:
No one wants toxic waste dumped in their backyards. Dioxins and furans from incinerators, dangerous chemicals leaching from landfill sites, apparently random dumping of nuclear waste are all clear threats to our health and lives. Any waste not properly dealt with is potentially threatening, yet industry and state seem to collude recklessly in its production. Robert Allen tackles the production of toxic waste and the inadequate provisions for dealing with it. He looks at specific sites, affected individuals and hushed up instances from the toxic hot spots of Britain and Ireland. He also examines some of the successful campaigns that have been staged against ill considered dumping grounds. As governments only respond to pressure, there are valuable lessons to be learnt from these.
