“Immediate checks and interventions are needed to ensure the safety of those who live near Vesuvius because the rains of the past few days have created landslides in the areas affected by fire in the summer of 2017”. The Greens reported this, with regional councilor Francesco Emilio Borrelli and the city councilor of Naples, Stefano Buono, adding that “last Saturday the residents of the San Vito district of Ercolano feared the neighborhood, and even via Benedetto Cozzolino, found itself invaded by a river of stony material but also trunks that came down from the Ercolano side of Vesuvius and that “sought” the natural path towards the sea of ​​the royal lagni, many of which were blocked or covered”. “Extraordinary checks must be carried out to understand whether the landslides highlighted by the Salute Ambiente e Vesuvio association, which carried out an inspection, represent a concrete and immediate danger,” added the Greens, for whom “unfortunately, too little has been done to secure that area after the devastating fires of the summer of 2017, and even the Vesuvius National Park continues not to take the situation with the necessary attention, as demonstrated by the lack of responses to our proposal to repopulate, with new plants, a hectare of the area that went up in smoke.” “The lack of responses to our proposal is a sign of the lack of attention with which the problem of securing that area is being addressed,” concluded Borrelli and Buono, for whom “we cannot waste any more time if we do not want to risk one of those tragedies that we too often find ourselves facing due to the lack of prevention, as demonstrated by the tragedy of the mother and her children in Calabria.”
