after services, Hobart Hall
Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fort Myers13411 Shire Ln, Fort Myers, FL 33912

SWFL Reset Center and community partners including LWVLee host Mike Ewall Esq of Energy Justice, a globally renowned expert on incinerators.

Mike will speak from the community perspective on:

• the prospects for the Buckingham-Lehigh Acres community and the 30yr old incinerator undergoing an end-of-life extension and the expiration of the 2026 permit
• a proposal for a 2nd incinerator at the Charlotte-Lee county-line off Zemel Rd.
• financial pitfalls
• disproportionate health & social costs
• Zero Waste alternatives

"Burning trash and landfilling toxic ash is the most expensive and polluting way to manage waste or make energy—far dirtier than burning coal and more harmful than going direct to landfills without burning first.” - , Mike Ewall
