And described the Holocaust as a "landfill in the sky" because they emit toxic emissions into the atmosphere. Ironically, these"landfill in the sky" you need to burial pits in the ground. Valrmadresulting from municipal solid waste incinerators, which was considered "hazardous waste" by the Supreme Court of the United States of America, contaminate soil and groundwater.Greenpeace warns that condoms each landfill must be crack in the end, the liquid will seep poison to poison the groundwater reservoirs. Hazardous waste incinerators that are ticking timebombs leave to our children.The Holocaust is to address the problem of the end is in essencethe problem. Strategy of treatment of the source dispense withproblems inherited countless adoption by the end of the tube(refineries, incinerators), through reduction and reuse and recycling of materials used and by applying the techniquesAllahrq and the elimination of toxic emissions and allow recyclingin the case of use of the material decomposing naturally getburied properly .
It is important to note the case of positive and practicalapplication have been a successful experiment, in the Spanishisland of Mallorca.
