Faced with warnings from the Autonomous Community to sanction the owners of contaminated land Hondón, being the City of Cartagena the owner of 75% of them, We can blame the Socialist Government to walk "giving sticks of blind" with land that They have already acquired contaminated products without previously requiring their decontamination to the companies responsible for it.

From Can Cartagena support the creation of a citizen platform to demand the decontamination of hazardous waste containing land Hondon, and other places such as those occupied by Zinsa companies in Torreciega, and Peñarroya in Santa Lucia, because in the end they will have to be the neighbors who have to fight for their health and for the environment in the municipality, before the inaction of the current government, reason that has led Podemos to go to the Prosecutor's Office asking that the possible responsibilities be investigated policies that could be derived from this abandonment of functions.

According to the purple formation, we Cartagena are surrounded by "poisoned land that damages our health", which left us all the factories at the end of their industrial activity at the beginning of the 2000s, and no government, neither municipal nor regional, for more than 15 years, they have worried about demanding the decontamination of the responsible companies, thus disregarding the principle that "whoever pollutes, pays".

Now, continues affirming Podemos, after the purchase "irresponsible" on the part of the Socialist Government of the lands that were property of Solvia, the Autonomous Community can get to sanction to the City council of Cartagena, that at present is the owner of 75% of the polluted land of the Hondón, with a sanction that will have to face all the citizenship, when it corresponded to do it to the company responsible for the contamination.

Likewise, Podemos has demanded that the mayor, Ana Belén Castejón, urgently convene the "Air Quality Board", inviting the affected neighbors and neighbors, as well as all the agents involved, to explain what the intentions of the Municipal Government with respect to the land of Hondón, and how it will proceed to its decontamination without having to charge the cost of it to the municipal coffers.

On the other hand, CTSSP will ask again at the next municipal plenary session when the Port Authority will execute the cleaning of the old lands occupied by Peñarroya, since last July a motion by Podemos was approved that urged the Port Authority to as soon as possible, the project to demolish the ruins, clean and dispose of the waste located in the old Peñarroya lands was moved to the Town Hall, establishing the calendar of actions, with the contribution of the reports of the Ministries of Environment and Health , so that everything was done while preserving the health of workers and citizens.
