Treno ad alta voracità
30.11.2005 Mentre i cittadini della Val di Susa presidiano a centinaia il cantiere di Venaus, fronteggiando agenti in assetto antisommossa, al Quirinale il discorso di Ciampi ha alluso alla questione della Tav, affidandosi poi alle "nuove tecnologie" per dare una sorta di ‘benedizione’. Nella mattinata a Venaus si è tenuto un Consiglio comunale convocato al oltranza davanti al cantiere dove dovrebbero cominciare i lavori per la realizzazione del tunnel della Torino-Lione. Presente in valle anche la Rete del Nuovo Municipio che ha definito inconcebibile e incredibilmente miope quello che sta accadendo. Anche l’Arci ha richiesto il ripristino della legalità democratica e un dialogo alla ricerca di confronto. Ma la presidente della Regione Piemonte Mercedes Bresso dichiara che sulla TAV “la mediazione si può fare sul come e non sul se”. L’associazione Idra, si chiede cosa pensi la presidente Bresso dei disastrosi dati ambientali ed economici che i tunnel TAV propongono là dove vengono costruiti.

rifiuti - da La Nuova Ecologia
21.11.2005 Primo via libera per la legge delega ambientale dal Consiglio dei Ministri che ha approvato in via preliminare il testo unico che raccoglie tutta la legislazione in materia. “Una vergogna. Un provvedimento kamikaze che lascia ore contate all’ambiente” ha commentato Roberto Della Seta, presidente di Legambiente che si appella alla Conferenza Stato-Regioni e alle Commissioni Camera e Senato. "La legge delega sull'ambiente è una vergogna perché apre una deregulation senza limiti sui rifiuti, dall'apertura delle nostre frontiere a traffici incontrollati di rifiuti ferrosi e non, al ritorno alla tassa rifiuti ed alla totale disincentivazione della raccolta differenziata, facendo marcia rispetto agli obiettivi del Decreto Ronchi, anche grazie al passaggio al regime di volontarietà dei consorzi" afferma Vittoria Polidori, responsabile campagna inquinamento di Greenpeace. Sui rifiuti la speranza viene dagli Stati Uniti dove città come S. Francisco, Los Angeles e San Diego stanno sperimentando la strategia “Rifiuti Zero”.
