Caravans about to be thrown into the sea;
ramblas that overflow and endanger neighbors and the natural environment;
purification plants that throw their black waters without purifying the Mar Menor;
and polluting companies that pour oil and oil into the Mediterranean.
For Podemos this is the result, not only of the force of nature, but also of the mismanagement of the different public institutions to conserve our environment, and most seriously, the safety of people in the municipality of Cartagena.
The intense rains in the early morning of April 19 to 20, more than 100 liters per m2, have brought back to the municipality of Cartagena scenes that are occurring in every cold drop that reaches the territory.
For Podemos Cartagena, these scenes could disappear or diminish, if the different institutions that intervene in the municipality, put in place the corrective actions to avoid the risks suffered by the neighbors of the municipality, in addition to our natural environment.
For the purple formation, the situation of the caravans in the Azohía parked in the ravine, has no explanation.
They denounce from Podemos, that throughout this legislature has been warned about the danger of the caravans parked in the flood zone of the Azohía.
Motions have been approved, neighbors have reported the situation on countless occasions, and since the City Council has not implemented any of the proposed actions in the municipal plenary, such as placing the appropriate signage forbidden to park, punish the offenders , or enable a public space for caravan parking in the area.
"It could have been avoided the rescue of a motorhome in the Azohía if the municipal government and the CHS had done their homework, mainly for not repeating a tragedy like the one that occurred in Mazarrón years ago.
We already know the consequences of the rains in our lands, why do not we do anything to avoid it? "Says Pilar Marcos, mayoral candidate for Unidas Podemos IU Equo.
CTSSP, municipal group of Podemos, also denounces that in the early hours of April 19, the residents of the Bahía Bella Urbanization once again feared that the coming of the waters along the Albujón ravine would flood their streets and houses again.
For We can images of the waters flowing down the Albujón ravine from Fuente Álamo, dragging all the garbage and debris that accumulated for months and years, in addition to the danger it poses to the neighbors living at the mouth of the ravine, is something that could be avoided.
However, say from Podemos, that from the CHS, and the City of Cartagena have not moved a finger to solve the serious problem that these neighbors live, which have had to resort to justice, as well as the purple formation , so that it obliges the administrations to comply with their competences, to safeguard the neighbors, and the Mar Menor.
The same neighbors of Bahía Bella warned the purple formation, when denouncing that the spillway of the treatment plant of Torre Pacheco, was pouring to the ravine the untreated black waters, whose destiny is not other, that the Mar Menor .
"Is a continuous stream of dirty and contaminated water what it means for the regional government zero discharge ?, What really matters to the PP Government the security of the neighbors, and the conservation of our natural environment ?, What measures of control have been launched from the regional government, so that the sewage treatment plants dependent on Esamur, do not pour more shit into the waters of the salt lake? "asks Pilar Marcos, Secretary General of Podemos Cartagena.
And finally from Podemos, they make a reflection on the issue of the oil spill to the Escombreras ravine by the Repsol company, which could have reached the Mediterranean.
As revealed by the Truth, the Mayor of Cartagena asked the CHS to open an investigation into the facts.
From Podemos, they hope that the data on this investigation will be known, especially to give transparency to the management of the administrations before an environmental crime, and so that it does not happen again what happened in June of last year before a polluting emissions of the same company, since the Air Quality Board has not reconvened for the explanations required by this and by the affected residents of Alumbres.
"We never got to know if the emergency protocol of the Escombreras Valley was set in motion, and mainly for the residents of Alumbres.
The grandiloquent announcements of the City Council are worth nothing about investigations that are never known, and most seriously, nobody ever pays for the pollution suffered by neighbors and our environment. "
From Podemos not only demand that public administrations act responsibly, but also that they do not deceive citizens by electoral interests, "because what we are playing is the health of the people, and the conservation of our nature," concluded Pilar Marcos .
