Asbestos continues to claim lives in Italy, over 4,000 each year, and poses a real danger when found in degraded structures and near sensitive locations. This is the case of the approximately 400-square-meter asbestos roof that extends from Via Deledda 27 to Via Andreoni, adjacent to a schoolyard. This private roof appears cracked and deteriorated, and has been reported repeatedly by residents without any effective intervention.

"It is unacceptable that an asbestos structure is located just meters from an area frequented daily by children," denounces Christian Mulas, president of the Environment and Health Commission. "I have already informed the local police commander and will take the matter to the appropriate authorities. It is no longer tolerable that, despite repeated reports, no action has been taken. Immediate action is needed to inspect and remove the asbestos: protecting public health, especially that of children, must be a priority."
