“What the incinerator brings with it is destruction, in terms of public health and the environmental impact,” said Santa Palomba resident Alessandro Lepidini.
“On the one hand, it doesn’t end the waste cycle as they’re claiming, but instead a third of what it processes will be left over as hazardous waste, that will need to be treated of course, and above all it will have a devastating impact on people’s health.”
Santa Palomba will not be the first to have such a rubbish treatment facility for the people of Rome.
The Malagrotta landfill operated for over three decades as Rome’s main landfill site.
However, authorities at the European Union (EU) level ordered its closure about 10 years ago, as it did not meet safety standards for the treatment of waste.
