A PROJECT TO FREE COMMUNITIES OF INCINERATION
Here is Essential Action's Activist Kit on Incineration and Waste in English. Some,
although not all,of this kit is also available in other languages.
The kit comprises a number of one and two-page fact sheets as well as a few articles on various
aspects of incineration. All are available in PDF format (requires the Adobe
Acrobat Reader in order to view the documents) so you can download them from the links below and then print
them out. When you do print them out, make sure that you check the box labelled "shrink to fit" to ensure
that they fit your paper size.
