On Via Castelli , in the Tuvixeddu-Tuvumannu neighborhood, a few steps from the necropolis, there's a huge illegal landfill located right between the apartment buildings. Residents say they're "furious." The mountain of waste is growing visibly. As with any landfill, there's obviously a bit of everything: from bags of food scraps to building materials, from bulky items to computers and televisions, strollers, toilets, and much more. All of it, right under some apartments.

"The air has become unbreathable ," blurts out Carlo Mameli , one of the residents. "In the summer, we couldn't even keep the windows open because the nauseating smell would seep into the houses. We don't dare imagine what's inside those bags, but the fact remains that living in these conditions is unacceptable. It's a significant health and hygiene problem, and no one cleans it up."

Another resident, Francesco Corda , agrees, adding: "Inevitably, the rats have arrived. It's true that some of the people who dump their waste here are also neighbors, but we can't all go through here. We feel abandoned; they don't think about us." When the landfill was removed a few months ago, it soon began to reappear. For this reason, residents are asking for the installation of video surveillance cameras, which, in their opinion, would be a significant deterrent that would discourage many from dumping their garbage.
