In this Podcast members of EnCaf Youth (Enfield Climate Action Forum) interview Georgia Elliott-Smith.
Georgia Elliott-Smith, a sustainability consultant who is fighting the expansion of the Edmonton incinerator, is seeking a judicial review of the omission of what legal papers say are “staggering” levels of CO2 emissions from waste incinerators. She is now waiting the decision of the Court.
Georgia has been a very brave person and this has been a David against Goliath story but thus far Georgia has been successful and has gained immense support from both citizens and professionals
In the UK, around 60% of our household waste ends up being burned in incinerators – even though most of it could be recycled if there were stricter government regulation. You know why there’s not? Because it’s cheaper to burn it.
Members of EnCaf Youth (sixth formers from Enfield schools) will question Georgia about her opposition to the Incinerator and why she felt it necessary to take legal action
