Incineration in Cork harbour: a burning debate that has raged for two decades 

The Chase resistance group set the template for how to fight a community cause and refused to give up, despite numerous setbacks

Cork Harbour Alliance for a Safe Environment has campaigned for 20 years to halt the building of an incinerator in Cork harbour.

They set the template for how to fight a community cause, and honed and perfected it over 20 years.

Friday's High Court ruling in their favour may be a boost to the Chase community resistance group, but the residents have learned over and over again that the cold war is never truly won.
