The Montiferru Protection Committee raises its voice against wind energy speculation, after the arrival in the port of Oristano ( THE NEWS ) of a cargo containing large blades to be installed in the area.

An alert launched by all the committees for the defense of the island's landscape which, with Montiferru, an area exposed to a massive invasion of wind towers, make an appeal to the regional institutions and political class.

«We need a general stance against the massive aggression that the island is undergoing , made even more unacceptable by the omissions, absences and ambiguities of all those who had and have the power to decide and who instead preferred to ignore, remain silent, let it happen", specifies the committee in a note sent to the press and to the Region.

In Montiferru, around forty 200 meter wind towers are planned which would break into the mountains between Scano and Santu Lussurgiu, in the hills that slope down towards the sea between Seneghe and Narbolia, then the countryside between Bauladu and Paulilatino with infrastructures, power lines, storage units and new paths also in the Alto Campidano of Milis and Tramatza.

An "encirclement" that would jeopardize valuable agricultural areas and forests , taking them away from the fertile land for cultivating Milis citrus fruits and breeding the Sardo-Modicana breed that produces agricultural food excellence such as Red Ox meat and Casizolu. Without giving anything to the populations, leaving only rubble to be disposed of after so many years. A radical transformation of the still uncontaminated landscape. A devastating impact on the territory: destruction of Mediterranean scrub plants, consumption of soil, disturbance of avifauna and obstruction of aerial overflights for fire-fighting vehicles.

The first construction sites to install the production infrastructures are about to open, so " the time of silence, slowness and ambiguity is over - urges the committee - the institutions must listen and act in the direction desired by the Sardinian citizens , the territories and the part of the political, institutional and academic world that has been close to us so far. The Presidency of the Council must immediately convene an emergency table with the Coordination of the Committees and the other appropriate actors to save Sardinia from plunder!
