Subject: [EN] Who is "james steele <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>>" ??
Does anyone on the Forum know who this person is? I see the rather flippant answer to Brian Ellis's posting below (which I thought was fantastic and passed along to others who might be interested).
I tried to contact this person direct because of interest in another of the IPC forums, and got a nonsense answer and a competitor's data sheet back. The answer was totally unrelated to my question, but signed " J.T. ROBEMSHORT -
RED LINE FARMS". Does that give anyone a clue? Any other experience with this IPC forum "contributor"?

As it happens, I'm ΒΌ-way through developing a web site devoted to the
problem of waste. It may be published in a couple of weeks or so. In the
meantime, have a look at http://www.cypenv.org/worldenv/files/tridel.htm<http://www.cypenv.org/worldenv/files/tridel.htm<http://www.cypenv.org/worldenv/files/tridel.htm%3Chttp://www.cypenv.org/worldenv/files/tridel.htm>>
- this describes the most modern implementation of a technology first
developed in France in the 1920s and is used in odd spots in various
countries. In the USA, I know Baltimore does it although I believe thei
r
plant is fairly old and polluting. There are probably many others. In
contrast, Toronto ships many tens of tonnes of their garbage daily to
Wayne County, Michigan, where it is landfilled at enormous cost to their
citizens and enormous quantities of emitted pollutants.
China is building some low-pollution waste-burning power stations near
the big cities (Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai etc.). Anyway, is it a sop
to the USA that China produces more waste, when it has >4x the
population? Surely the criterion is the per capita production, where the
USA (and Cyprus) have the doubtful honour of being world champions!
