Las incineradoras de residuos emiten partículas, gases ácidos, metales pesados, compuestos orgánicos volátiles, hidrocarburos poliaromáticos, PFAS, microplásticos y contaminantes orgánicos persistentes para los que no existen niveles seguros de exposición.

Emiten más contaminación climática que el carbón y el gas, y consolidan una economía lineal al incentivar la generación de residuos. Son cuatro veces más caras que las energías renovables, dos veces más caras que el gas y un 25% más caras que el carbón.

At the 2025 BRS COPs, countries rejected dangerous proposals that would have weakened toxics protections — but fell short of the bold action needed to truly protect people and the planet. #BRSCOPs2025
