Some illegal landfills have been discovered in Macomer, all open to the sky, in the open countryside, but not far from the town, in the area between sa Crabarza and Paza, near the road to Santu Lussurgiu, which the municipal administration defines as environmental damage.

The discovery was made and reported to the municipal administration by the Forestry Corps guards, but also by several citizens, including farmers. In the area, all kinds of material has been abandoned and accumulated, some of which are particularly polluting, partly coming from construction, therefore rubble and asbestos remains, plastic and metal shutters, parts of vehicles, tyres, household appliances and therefore the classic mattress.

An area that has been undergoing reclamation for a few days, obviously at the expense of the Municipality.

«Last week we cleaned up a large area, but the shame remains - says the councilor for the environment, Toto Listo - during the cleaning operations other landfills and long-abandoned material re-emerged. It is a hidden area, little frequented, which encourages uncivilized people to abandon all types of material, which could very well have been taken to the ecological center or by making a simple phone call to the toll-free number."

The entire municipal administration condemns what happened. «We want to raise citizens' awareness as much as possible, because this is environmental and also economic damage. The so-called primality also decreases and the percentage of separate waste collection is reduced, which has reached and exceeded 85%. We will take harsh action against those who abandon waste in the municipal area. We will do this through the use of technology so that the culture of environmental protection spreads."
