Well these days, as well as ten years ago, is still spoken of in Campania waste crisis. A Sant'Arcangelo Trimonte is still spoken of emergency waste. Without going into details of what emergency has nothing, it must be from a true story. On October 19, 2010 the President of the Region, Stefano Caldoro, issue an order "to contain and overcome the current state of crisis as regards the cycle of waste collection in Naples and province. " But how? The solution is as follows: "Municipalities and operators of installations that currently STIR give their waste to landfill will give the same Terzigno at the landfills Savignano Irpino (AV), San Tammaro (EC) and Sant'Arcangelo Trimonte (BN) ".
Irpinia and Sannio irsongono. Sant'Arcangelo arises. The most common word is abuse. And yes because the measure Caldoro remove the de facto regional dispute issued in August for a return to normal operations and provincialization waste. " In other words, the document forced "to adopt the Provinces of Campania a management system of the cycle of waste that exceeds the Consortium on Law and brings the direct responsibility of each local governmental authorities. " Furious Fausto Pepe, Mayor of Benevento, which states: "The gravity of this choice, besides bringing to light the inability of the center and the President Caldoro, mistrust of Berlusconi made the singers scattered around the Campania region." The tension Sant'Arcangelo salt.
Day 21 begins the garrison. The site Nocecchia district teems with protesters. The Mayor of the town, Romeo Pisani, and representatives of Codisam demand the immediate convening of the Provincial Council. The proposal is accepted: the Board will be held in the afternoon in front of the landfill. 18.00.
The warm autumn sun colors illuminate the faces of the demonstrators and the tricolor flag. Those who come on behalf of the mayors of neighboring countries. Accompanied by provincial councilors and councilors, mayors parade between anger and distrust of citizens in the past for what could be done and not done. One after another, men of politics, are arranged across the long rectangular table. How figurine of a black and white printing. On this side of the table are the citizens. The former have the microphone. The latter only the strength of the voice. The council is officially opened. The actions follow each other, interrupted by the voice a few brave, coming out from the crowd, he decides to scream their anger. Rage that echoes among the green hills of Sannio. The writer. Discussion. We quarrel. But soon night falls. The darkness is relentless. It's late. The men take their leave policy. But before you leave make a promise. "Tomorrow we'll be back here. Beside you. " The Santarcangelo are hesitant. But do not give up. They know what is coming will be a day of struggle and confrontation. They are ready. Defend their land with nails and teeth. With or without the politicians.
The new day has arrived. The sun, hidden among the Samnite hills, illuminating the sky. Timidly. Are 7. The landfill is already silent. The hours pass slowly. The anxiety rises. You know, they're coming. Here they are. Tiny in the distance, getting larger as they approach. But how many? One, two, three, seven. Seven trucks. All loads of "rubbish". All coming from Naples. People flock. The protesters are a hundred. Among them we recognize some mayors, councilors, aldermen, faithful to the promise of the night before. Protesters and politicians are arranged. Side by side. Before the green gate. Await the arrival of law enforcement agencies must ensure that the spillage of waste.
"Tighten, tighten," someone yells of demonstrators, "we will not let go" cries another. Among the politicians, the most active adviser to the provincial Claudio Ricci and the leader of the opposition Massimo Viscovo. Even the first citizens of Molinara, Maria Cirocco, of Apex, Ida Albanian, give a hand to the demonstrators. But to make his mark is the courage of the local women. Daughters, mothers, grandmothers, all ready to fight. And they do so with the support of their men and boys of the Social Center screening. Police officers and police are relentless. Advance. Ligi to duty. Strutting in their blue uniforms. Those people should be evicted. The trucks must enter. A few meters divide the demonstrators by the police. Now only a few centimeters. Bodies end up touching. For granted. There are moments of great excitement. Among the crowd there is a hurt. His name is Bruno Ranaldo. 63 years old. We must call for help. The fighting did not subside. The police away the demonstrators. Use the force. Enough to open a gate. Now we are at the gate before them. Police and carabinieri. The trucks come on again. The engines roar. The big trucks are close to the landfill. They are about to enter. But here is one of the demonstrators be placed on his back before the first of seven trucks. It 's a councilor, Paul Visconti. The trucks have to stop. The hours are the most crucial. A summit in the prefecture, in the presence of the prefect Mazza, President of the Province Cimitile the mayors of the district of Saint Archangel Trimonte and Chief of Police discuss what happened in front of the landfill. Time passes. Protesters do not abandon the garrison. The answer comes in the evening. After a lengthy discussion, the chief has pledged to prevent the spillage of waste in the future. But the seven trucks that were stopped throughout the day before the gates will have spilled. "It was a difficult negotiation," says Mayor Pisani, "But the solution adopted was the lesser evil. We avoided the militarization of the area with the arrival of other waste from outside the province. " The earth swallows. It is the morning of day 23. From what has been learned in the Sannio should no longer get rubbish from Naples. Can we trust? Meanwhile, the situation in Sant'Arcangelo remains quiet.
fact is that the protest continues in Campania nonstante sweeteners promised by the government to silence the residents of affected areas. A protest justified. Away from the national television cameras. Unbeknownst to the Italian judge who, now as then, that the Berlusconi government a job well done.
Today the waste crisis is lurking again. Why Neapolitans produce too much garbage or because of the waste problem has never really been defeated?
