ARTICLE SENT TO THE NEWSPAPER "THE NATION": As you know the day will be April 28 pv the day proclaimed as "NATIONAL DAY IN MEMORY OF THE VICTIMS OF ASBESTOS." As a promoter of numerous initiatives aimed at combating all forms of asbestos, you'd be really grateful you would honor, publishing this paper, all asbestos victims, civilian workers and ex-military armed forces have died in recent years, especially in our city, La Spezia, which holds the sad record for deaths due to "pleural mesothelioma" due to prolonged exposure to asbestos. In honor of these innocent victims, but I'm not going to argue, as contaminated with asbestos, I feel entitled to criticize openly and without fear of being denied, the political authorities of this city that, over the years, have seen the prolificacy of "toxic site" in the open without ever take decisive action and targeted to hit them hard "poisoning of the planet" . I remember someone Landfill Pitelli legalized. SCREWS excavations of the Senate of Lerici, where, even today, working a crumbly gravel called "coil" that contains a high percentage of asbestos. Magra River Park where they were deposited hundreds of thousands of tonnes of sludge asbestos waste processing more or less illegal (they are highly visible along the banks of the river that runs from Fornola Sarzana and where people go for walks and cycling). And I could go.
Again, in defiance of the law 257 of 1992 which bans the use of asbestos, the Navy is sailing vessels still pregnant with asbestos. I have documentary evidence in my possession which can not be denied. In this period the arsenal of La Spezia is reclaiming the smaller ships with asbestos! But we're not in 2010?
Today, in light of the new scandalous events, read "decree salvammiragli" discussed in the Senate and, fortunately, the President of the Republic Giorgio Napolitano has not signed, it makes me think of those families of those poor victims who, even today, shouting "Justice!" Here, in La Spezia, is about to be established a Committee of Struggle for the Defense of Asbestos Victims' Families "which will be proposed as the" injured party "in all processes relating to the compensation to be paid to all victims of this poison Every year, in Italy, kills 5000 victims.
On April 28th is the day of thought, meditation, and for those responsible for this carnage to be, at all levels, the Day of Atonement if you still have a conscience!
