For #SoutheastAsia, #solidwaste proliferation and increasingly ltd. #landfill space has invited the idea of #WTE incineration as a major solution. Advocates say argue
that 'developed' nations use WTE to harness power as a by-product of the process; But the critiques are salient,
1) Regulatory monitoring, compliance/enforcement of #toxicair releases for #ASEAN nations are ltd. at best.
2) The activity can serve to gaslight the #pollution #impact(s) of #linear #economy.

#HCM, a city of 10 Mil ppl does not have a formal #recycling system, but generates nearly 10K tonnes of #municipal #SW per day. A ltd. group of emerging businesses operate to repurpose #plasticswaste into 'new' consumer items, #ISCs are not formally recognised by local govt., #landfill operations are expanded, but #WTE is an increasingly acceptable govt. option, and amended #environmentallaw is hampered by lack of compliance/enforcement. What's the solution? #SDG12, not.

@JimsPhotos Absolutely, I have followed the reintroduction #WTE programme closely. I think I know where the release location on the IOW is, and keep popping over, when I can. Nope, no luck as yet. There are 3 birds currently in Poole Harbour though! That's my next adventure... #WhiteTailedEagle
