Channel: Institute for Local Self-Reliance
Date: 09/01/2019

The Institute for Local Self-Reliance invites clean energy advocates and communities fighting waste incinerators to join a webinar exploring our latest report on the economic and environmental impacts of power-generating waste incinerators. 

The webinar — Wed., January 9th at 1pm CST / 2pm EST — covered incineration as an issue connecting the waste management and energy sectors and dug into the implications of classifying this process as “renewable." We presented ways to combat this aging, dirty industry and alternative strategies to support energy democracy and waste to wealth in local communities, instead.
