&quot;Is burning trash better* than a landfill? Honestly asking&quot;<p>I don&#x27;t know a lot about this, but I do know that the nordic countries all incinerate their trash, and do so with scrubbers&#x2F;filters that negate the pollution coming out of the incinerator.<p>Word on the street is that the nordic countries do everything better than we do and are the bright shining example for all things urban progressivism ... so ... I guess it&#x27;s the right thing to be doing :)
