Petition text
We need measures that combat the discharge of fine dust by the industries, in particular in a place near where I live, Cerano, where is located a coal-fired power station.
Why is this important?
I contend that this should be a priority for people upstairs because, as a result of the particulate matters produced by the central, the percentage of deaths from cancer has increased and has become one of the most elevated in Italy.
It’s not a problem that concerns only the workers of the factory, but strongly also the people who live nearby. The number of children who have disease to their lung is growing more and more and doctors can’t do anything to avoid it.
There is also the problem of the agriculture because the dust lands on the fields surrounding and pollute it, so the farmers can’t use these lands for their activity. And if they use them, they produce contaminated products.
