Maryland is poised to dole out more than $300 million to trash incinerators between 2012 and 2030, according to the latest analysis by the nonprofits Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), Clean Water Action and Progressive Maryland.
Timothy Whitehouse, executive director of PEER, the nonprofit which led the analysis, said that the report highlights the economic and environmental folly of having dirty trash incinerators in the state’s RPS.
