Argumentation: ←It is important to be able to compare different risks. Seeing emission values for each sector makes this easier. The new emissions from the plants can then be put into perspective with variables people can perceive: they may have previous experience or a feeling about the amount of smoke coming from homes, or factories.: --Jouni 06:05, 22 September 2006 (EEST) {{{3}}}

Indicator variables

Argumentation: If the decision model will be used to analyse alternative scenarios, we have to include both modelled variables and feedback variables here or alternatively define these own variable for the Pyrkilö -model.

Argumentation: MSWI and dumping site alternatives have diffent total noise and smell effects for people living near the emission source. Both should be analysed before final solution.

Argumentation: Probably it could be possible to use also ash produced by MSWI? In Elimäki new factory was started where they produce forest fertilizer from the ash, which means that ash is not waste any longer but can be used (in case it is clear enough to be spread on the ground). -Sanna

Statements: Resolution: Resolution not yet found. (A stable resolution, when found, should be updated to the main page.)

Argumentation: ←Short term effects of dioxins only occur when the acute doses exceed the current background exposures by several orders of magnitude. This kind of exposures are not possible in the case of MSWI, and they can be excluded.: --Jouni 10:33, 21 September 2006 (EEST), Anu {{{3}}}
