HIV/AIDS-aktiivi Judge Edwin Cameron totesi kirjan julkistamistilaisuudessa, että kuurot ovat edelleen kielellisesti, sosiaalisesti ja taloudellisesti syrjäytynyt ryhmä, eivätkä he ole saaneet riittävästi aiheeseen liittyvää tietoa.

Giornata mondiale contro l'incenerimento dei rifiuti - da Gaia
06.09.2006 Oggi è la Giornata mondiale contro l'incenerimento lanciata da Gaia - Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives - sostenuta in Italia da Greenpeace, Rete nazionale rifiuti zero e a cui aderisce anche il Wwf promuovendo momenti di informazione e protesta che animeranno le piazze italiane tra il 6 e il 10 settembre. Una giornata per ribadire il no secco a tutte le forme di combustione dei rifiuti e il rilancio delle strategie che rappresentano la soluzione alternativa al problema della gestione dei rifiuti. "Gli inceneritori sono impianti costosi che non starebbero sul mercato se non ricevessero i contributi statali attraverso il sistema dei certificati verdi e cip6. Incenerire conviene ai gestori degli impianti solo perché possono vendere l'energia da loro prodotta come energia "a tariffe incentivate", facendosi pagare dal gestore nazionale fino a 3 volte il prezzo di mercato dell'energia" - scrive Greenpeace. Eppure gestire i rifiuti senza ricorrere all'incenerimento è possibile: lo dimostrano città e regioni in Canada, Usa, Australia e Nuova Zelanda che, in un arco di tempo relativamente breve hanno ottenuto riduzioni molto significative di smaltimento in discarica, senza ricorrere a impianti di incenerimento.
