The regional council of Sardinia, chaired by the new governor Alessandra Todde, approved on Monday the bill "Urgent measures for the protection of the landscape, landscape and environmental assets", which introduces a ban on the construction of new energy production and storage plants electricity from renewable sources which directly cause new land occupation for 18 months.In fact, the text specifies that article 9 of the Constitution provides that the Republic, and therefore also the Regions, are called upon to work towards ensuring the safeguarding and protection of the environment and landscape.For years, citizens and networks of Sardinian associations have been mobilizing against the multinationals' assault on the island's territory, whose municipalities have been flooded by authorization requests for the construction of wind turbines and new photovoltaic systems.A battle which, in recent weeks, has begun to intensify again, with an influx of petitions and initiatives in...
