“When the wind farm started to be talked about, I told the designer to stop.”

Giuseppe Spanu, a forty-year-old winemaker , dreamed of making his twenty-one hectare farm take a leap in quality: the farmhouse in front of the vineyard was to become the structure intended for a wine tourism business.

«But when people started talking about the wind farm, I had to stop: those blades placed in the only agricultural area of Sinnai will kill us, they will take away our bread».

A curse for those who believe in this work.

"I invested over 200 thousand euros to mechanize the company." And now those shovels risk destroying everything. Because they devastate the landscape. And because, in a period in which we have to deal with the drought caused by climate change, they risk making the fields die of thirst (and, perhaps, even the country itself).
