WAR AGAINST PLASTIC

fountains and water bottles pollution, police and prosecutors against ..... (?)


Each year two million tourists drop bottles. And the park running for cover. "The resentment of the traders? If in a few years became a dump also their business would be at the peak

Two million discarded plastic bottles on average every year in August, the National Park of Cinque Terre, four hundred thousand the only way of love. The President of the Park, and Marco Franco Bonanini Zanicchi, geologist, they began to be reckoned with. And they have found the size of that already with the naked eye, and especially by the difficulties of collecting on trails and rocks and disposal costs, it seemed a disaster. "We are buried under the plastic bottles," the complaint Bonanini.
Party campaign "Pet Free" National Park: October, starting at Riomaggiore and then all the other municipalities, will be converted to public fountains will be installed in existing and new. Equipped with a special filter for purification, with a tank of carbon dioxide - for those who prefer sparkling water - with slight cooling system will be in the trenches of the struggle to plastic. Not only that. Each tourist will be delivered with a half-liter bottle in aluminum, in various colors, with the logo of the Park: it will cost one euro, a gadget that will help the planet, and even before, the territory. Certainly some discontent among traders that will dramatically reduce the sales of bottled water will be to put into account, but Bonanini is convinced that those who work and know the profound value of the Cinque Terre, you'll understand. "If in five years we will be a dump even their businesses are going to peak - says the president - rather a small sacrifice now, but a secure future."
"Drink pure saving the environment" is the title of the campaign that the Cinque Terre Park will launch Monday night, at 18, in the Castle of Riomaggiore, with a panel discussion involving, in addition Bonanini and Mortal Coil, the engineer Marco Lorenzi Salarpi and architects Richard and Kathy Ambrosini. "In our offices already drink purified water from the columns and we have banned the plastic - says Bonanini - start now working on Riomaggiore: 4:00 to 5:00 operate fountains at the station, which is the "gateway" to the Cinque Terre's busiest, then touch the other areas, including the mayors agree. In five months the area will be ready to quench all the three million tourists a year to the 5000 inhabitants of the Park. "
will cost about 2000 € convert any existing fountain dispenser of" Water Park "sparkling or still, the bottles have already been purchased. "We will introduce a token contribution, 5 cents, to cover the costs of carbon dioxide canisters - adds Bonanini - Coming to the Cinque Terre is a tourist aware, we ask a concrete gesture of awareness, to save this paradise from the plastic.

PS but the bottles are bought where?
