Avellino
For days we have been witnessing a particular form of pollution: that of reality. Caused by candidates who increasingly demonstrate that they do not know the city.” This is what the candidate for mayor of the civic coalition made up of the “We are Avellino”, “Really” and “Viva la Libertà” lists declares. Laura Nargi, regarding the recent declarations of some competitors on the condition of the air we breathe in the city.
«The fight against environmental pollution is a key theme of our Government programme. Our health is at stake: we cannot allow mystifications. – continues Nargi – Legislative decree number 155 of 2010 establishes a maximum limit of PM10 in the air of 50 micrograms per cubic meter, which cannot be exceeded more than 35 times a year. Arpac is the only body entitled to register it and Avellino had exceeded these parameters for almost 10 consecutive years, until 2021″.
And here’s the turnaround. «In the last 2 years, Avellino has never exceeded the PM10 threshold allowed by law. – explains the candidate for mayor of the civic coalition – We went from 78 breaches in 2020 to 26 in 2022 and 29 in 2023. The measures adopted in recent years, such as the relocation of the bus terminal from the centre, the stop to agricultural fires throughout This year, the obligation to equip all furnaces and biomass heating systems with fine dust removal and the boiler census campaign have borne fruit.
This is what the official Arpac data says. – concludes Nargi – This is the reality. The rest is misinformation and propaganda. Everything else is smog.”
