The Campania Regional Administrative Court has suspended the installation of a 5G antenna on the Saline coast in Palinuro, in the municipality of Centola (Salerno), accepting the appeal of the Amanti del Mare company.
A decision defined as “historic” by the deputy Pino Bicchielli (Noi Moderati), who underlines the victory of the community against a work with a high environmental impact and potentially harmful to health.
The judges recognized the risk to the landscape and the tourist economy, especially in view of the summer season. “The TAR shared our concerns,” said Bicchielli, president of the commission on hydrogeological and seismic risk and coordinator of the Sistema Cilento committee in the Anti-Mafia commission.
The hearing on the merits is set for December 3. “We continue on this path to protect the community, the landscape and the health of citizens,” he concluded.

It is interesting to see how the Tar decided to suspend the 5G antenna, but I wonder if this decision can really protect the health of citizens. There are many aspects to consider, such as technological progress and the needs of the community.
