The limit of no return, beyond which the ecosystem Italy is no longer able to reproduce itself is getting closer. But no one cares. The water-related natural disasters, landslides and mudslides to one another throughout the national territory (Massa, Calabria, Veneto), but especially at regional and provincial (Lambro, Seveso), but few, indeed very few seem to notice of the moment in which we live, almost no one in the "palace" tries to address the landslide risk of Italy.
However, the problem is right there in front of everyone is not difficult to see, is commonly called concreting , or rather loss of land. Although facts and figures provided by the WWF and the National Council of Geologists , are equally evident that they can snub: 6 million people in Italy live in a territory to high hydrogeological risk , 260 000 buildings risk of landslides and floods (including schools and hospitals), the critical areas of high hydrogeological are 10% of the territory and 89% of the common, half a million people living in Lombardy, Piedmont and Veneto , seismic risk in 50% of the national soil.
In our new province of Monza and Brianza, the territory is already cemented 55%, a figure among the highest in Italy, destined to increase as forecast PGT (Government of the Territory Plan).
The risk to which they are subject to 6 million people are where the real extraordinary natural events can cause adverse events and death: violent rains in recent example of the Veneto. The water rushed in so abundant within a few hours, which would fall due in a month, but can not justify constant state of calamity.
The mismanagement of the rivers and the slopes, however, is the real problem that is found consistently in the last 50 years and always in ways p
ver evident in the last decade where the building boom (and its speculation) has led to building where it was not expected and can , moving the city toward urban centers, neighboring countries, which often overlap in areas of countryside, green fields maybe used as expansion areas of rivers in full. The old "channels" of the rivers, especially useful in busy periods, were closed, blocked, changed paths with artificial banks : thus making the river flow, rainfall in extraordinary cases, increases more and more without ever having relief roads. The small streams become rivers.
The same WWF denounced the situation by launching the campaign " liberafiumi2010 " between the rivers "shabby" attend the Seveso and Lambro largely channeled that have crippled even entire neighborhoods Milan and Monza, not to mention the damage in small countries.
Monza and the overbuilding in the territory is not in decline
Absolutely: it shows the testing done by PD provincial monitoring the PGT of some common on prediction of the coming years. Since 55% of land already used you can switch, according to the joint examination of the PGT, 65% of the province of Monza and Brianza. Incredible figure. We are taking the road towards the point of no return.
Municipalities will have to take in the sights, or have already taken difficult decisions, even for our future are: Bovisio Mascago, Monza, Arcore, Brugherio, and Triuggio Burago Molgora .
A Bovisio in decision making, the plan provides a high tower about 17 floors (9,000 square meters) from place on the border with the municipality of Desio, overlooking the foothills and placed in proximity to the incinerator in Desio. This prediction, among others, is part of the supra-municipal Park (Plis) of Grugnotorto Villoresi. The list is also a new shopping center (22,500 sqm) to be developed close to the SP 527 "Bustese.
In the capital, administered by the League and PDL, will be on the examination table from a cement 4 million cubic meters new residential and commercial centers and production and the overbuilding of Cascinazza, agricultural land and flooding of the River Lambro, on which the buildable cubic meters in the interests of Berlusconi's family will grow from 120 000 today to more than 500 000.
Brugherio is the other common Monza where incumbent projects involving the construction of a shopping center and parking on two levels corresponding to an occupation of land of 160,000 square meters in area currently allocated to green spaces and farmland.
For Arcore (park in the middle of the Valle del Lambro): 25 buildings of three storeys, 400 apartments for a total of 150 thousand cubic meters that will house 1,200 new residents. An investment of 220 million that Hydra, the estate of Berlusconi, has already presented to the junta's center.
This is the situation, this is the path you are on, in areas in principle were intended for protection but are now in the hands of political-economic power.
The limit of no return, beyond which the ecosystem Italy is no longer able to reproduce itself is getting closer.
