Garbage crisis - Italy - is this 2007?
I guess I had not thought much about garbage in recent years, I for one assumed that we had figured this thing out, I mena aren’t we recylcing and sorting? Aren’t we buidling golf courses over waste dumps and pulling the excess methane produced therein into electrcicty? I guess garbage can be a serious issue, and in Naples Italy, apparently it has become a crisis and a helth crisis at that.
From this article via yahoo it seems that choas is erupting in Italy with dumps completely full and trah that has not been collected in weeks, people are burning garbage that contains lethal chemicals and they probably don’t even know that they are making a dire situation even worse. The mob mentalitly and burning cities, all over garbage? Is this really 2007 we are living in?

Come to think of it, I do remember a few articles recently around town where residents of a small comunity are trying to press for more investigationsinto toxic spillover from a trash dump that is “inconclusively” making people in the area sick who are using well water. This is really sad. The river is full of toxins, the wells are filling up, I guess putting a man on the moon is no help for the men and women on the ground.
