Peppe Caridi - http://www.meteoweb.it/ - It 's the same old story every year, between June and early July when the summer is starting and when the beaches are crowded with sun loungers and umbrellas: the nightmare of marine pollution are concerned about the population, but as so often it is only a big bluff.
This year, after all, had exceeded all limits, especially in Reggino: "the beach is radioactive, "" die if you touch the beach, "the sea is polluted, the fish die," and, again, "I saw a child enter the water and then came out with the skin is full of holes": this is the torment that is gripping the civil society of Calabria, Reggio and in particular, in recent weeks.
the dock would in particular the Ionian coast of Calabria. Although there has never been anything official, no type of study, analysis or any kind of feedback, and although this is a widespread news who has only and only "hearsay", many people believe it.
Some give up the sea, beach and in the days to leave.
Others, frightened, moving elsewhere.
But there are also those, a good memory, remembers: "It's the same story every year, I'm at an age and a life that I take a bath here. Is to me nothing bad ever happened and continue to do so because they are just rumors, nothing is true. "
That is just stupid urban legends has confirmed this morning the Regional Minister for the Environment, Silvio Greek, who during a press conference in Catanzaro said that "on a theme as' delicate, you can not 'talk hearsay. We are no longer 'tolerate actions of people who talk about things that do not know. We have so many real problems in this region that do not have to invent others. "
Greek was supported, at a press conference, the director dell'Arpacal, Vincenzo Mollace who explained how "there are over 610 miles of the coast of Calabria bathing regularly, out of about 715, which characterize the region, and then remain about a hundred kilometers which are marked by permanent restrictions (almost 58 km) or temporary (43 km), but last year there were more than 10km to ban this year, so the situation has improved.
To arrive at these conclusions ARPACal the analysis carried out between April and June 30, with 660 sampling points along the coast, analyzing the physical-chemical and microbiological parameters provided by law.
"We have not found a particularly critical situations, in particular type of radioactive material. This is totally dismissed warnings from any foundation and I challenge anyone to prove otherwise, "is how Mollace denied the rumors on the pollution of seas and Calabria, however, to put the chapter" end "in this affair, has announced further supplementary samples in areas called into question, with the collaboration ISPRA.
The data analyzed, divided into five provinces, highlights, in positive terms, the provinces of Catanzaro and Reggio Calabria, where he increased the miles of bathing areas. In particular, over the previous year, in Catanzaro are 5.4 kilometers of coast have been recovered, while in Reggino are 3.8. Hurt the province of Cosenza, with four miles of the coast lose their bathing, and with less than 1.2 km Vibo Valentia. No change was, however, recorded in Crotone.
Councillor Greek added that "We have a vast sea of \u200b\u200bdata quality as bathing and index of species. There is an unquestionable quality and that is why we can not make room for criminals acting on small egos. It is no longer allowed anyone to keep up with cunning to destroy the sea. "
Indeed, the sea of \u200b\u200bCalabria is one of the most beautiful and cleanest in Italy: instead of inventing problems that do not exist, we should think about how to make better, considering what is the advantage of beach tourism in other regions of Italy, as Lazio ol'Emilia Romagna, where certainly the quality of bathing waters and the sea is very bad.
Councillor Greek stimulated another important consideration: "I wonder how many bills are made in one year for the disposal of sludge and the action in civilian homes. "
The message is loud and clear: we start with ourselves, first to watch and criticize others.
And most importantly, in Calabria, we learn to enjoy the fantastic and unique sea that nature has given us.
We envy him the whole world but we ourselves are, paradoxically, to tarnish the image.
