The article is very informative but there are many things that are not clear, such as the values ​​of dioxins and other substances. It would be useful to have more explanations on how these data were obtained and what consequences they can have for health.

The fire in Naples was very serious and worrying. The data from Arpa are alarming and the air quality has significantly worsened. We hope that the authorities act to protect the health of citizens and constantly monitor.
