If they fib about one thing, what else are they fibbing about?
If it is a good thing, they should be able to show it on paper. They should have actual test results for everything related to pollution, and they should not take public money to operate.
How much public money do investors take away? Is the plant really doing honest tests, or are they just worming their way around testing?
Is it a good long-term idea to remove and incinerate nutrients from our forests?
