Every fortnight the Burning Issue looks at different elements of the energy recovery sector.
Presented by Luke Walsh, the editor of endswasteandbioenergy.com, the show interviews leading figures in the energy recovery sector and aims to investigate where the sector is now and where does it go from here.
Luke became interested in waste management while working on a bin lorry one summer in Essex. The team he was with collected commercial waste and dumped it in a huge landfill in Pitsea, with no attempt to sort or recycle it.
Looking out over the landfill Luke thought this was the wrong approach and started writing about environmental issues and reporting on the energy-from-waste sector, which he believes is the best solution for waste that can’t be recycled. But is this still the case?
