This has been posted to several Sheffield email lists (all of which have closed archives for some reasons I don't understand) so I'm posting it here to make it public.

Incinerator Protest / Wake

Monday 29th September, 5.00pm Bernard Road Incinerat

Onyx will be 'cutting the first sod' for the new incinerator plant(or in their corporate newspeak, an energy recovery facility! ) at Bernard Road and having a formal 'celebration', However, many community groups: Impact, Rabid, The Green Party etc, will be on hand to peacefully spoil the party for this unwanted monsterosity and have a wake for the incinerator instead, it should be fun...

An Invitation to all Sheffield residents who are opposed to the building of a new incinerator in the City. If you haven't been invited to the formal "cutting the 1st sod" ceremony on Monday 29th September at Bernard Road, why not join in the "unofficial" wake outside the gates at 5.00pm. Bring bells, whistles, loud hailers, musical instruments; anything that makes a noise and home made banners. Unfortunately the budget won't run to champers and sausage rolls!

HELP MAKE OUR PRESENCE KNOWN
