The scars are deep, marked by those branches of coal that still rise like arms reaching towards the sky in an untamed green that is slowly reclaiming its spaces. Here, between Planargia and Montiferru, history is marked by an indelible temporal crossroads: "before" and "after" the great fire, that of July 24 and 25, 2021. Now, threatening this enclave of history and nature forever is a company with ten thousand euros paid and a tax residence in a municipality, Celano, in the province of L'Aquila, a thousand miles away from these lands. And yet the claims of these gentlemen, whom we have already dealt with a few years ago, have become increasingly concrete. That project that, due to its size and grandeur, seemed like a whim, now takes on the weight of a real threat, capable of devastating one of the most pristine areas of the island without appeal.
The numbers make it the most invasive of those ever presented on the terrestrial soil of Sardinia: 336 megawatts, or the beauty of 56 wind turbines, all 206 meters high, for a stratospheric energy potential, to be installed between Scano di Montiferro, Sindia and Macomer. They themselves, the designers and partners, declare the disproportion of the project with the territorial context. They write with impunity: "the plant has a positive impact on the environment as it provides a production useful for the annual energy needs of over 300,000 families (made up of 4 people with average consumption)" . The Ministry of the Environment is once again changing the pace of that project, with the decision to reopen the terms for public observations.
In the meantime, the verification of the 210 thousand signatures of Pratobello 24 deposited in the Regional Council is underway: perhaps in a week the text will arrive in the commission. The hypothesis that the popular initiative bill will be assigned the fast track for immediate entry into the Chamber is moving away, but the road to a quick examination of the text remains downhill. To resort to the emergency procedure provided for by the Regional Council regulation, the consent of all group leaders is needed, and those of the majority - albeit with different motivations - are pushing for the popular initiative bill to follow the "normal" procedure with examination in the commissions.
