MANIFESTATION GALIZA NON SE VENDE

SUNDAY 15 FEBRUARY 2009

READ FULL TEXT OF COMMUNIQUE ON THE PLAZA DE LA QUINTANA REMATE GALIZA THE DEMONSTRATION OF THE NON SE VENDE 15/02/09

Companions:

Again today, one year after the last appointment, because the reasons.

People shouted GALIZA NOT FOR SALE express our strongest protest against the picture that makes this government disguised as progressive with its environmental policies and social issues are destroying the natural resources of Galicia, its biodiversity and human and cultural heritage. Environmental and social policies which mean the continuation of the previous administrations in the sad way of handing the country to large multinational corporations and major economic interests, using government spending to feed this outdated and unfair economic and social model.

Policies, deaf and blind to the deep economic crisis, energy and environment that we seek to follow, as if there is nothing impossible in the path of "continuous and unlimited economic growth." In the path of destruction more upset to produce more, consume more.

The list of goals and points of complaint is unfortunately long and varied. It focuses on the injured heart of our natural and social reality:

We denounce forgotten person of the people most in need financially, for lack of real social policies.

Denounce the process marbellización do our coast. Speculation, aggressive and filled concrete walks. Levels of contamination of our rivers that make them incompatible with fish and shellfish. Harbors Plan which aims to multiply by four existing ones, and masking urbanisations private appropriation of the coastline, looking for just a good business at the expense of our coast.

Aquaculture Plan denounce a devastating best preserved areas of the coastline for the benefit of transnational corporations. A plan that threatens aquaculture Corrubedo, Quilmes, Corcubión, Merexo, Camelle, Arou, Seráns, Oia, Lira, Camariñas, Muros, Malpica, Valdovinos Ribadeo ... and up to 12 places.

Plan Wind denounce a chaotic that does not take into account areas of high ecological value, archaeological or protected areas, which gives our mountains to the private electricity Groba da Serra, Serra do Xistral, Careón of Serra, Serra Suido do, Ancares and many other places we want to fill mills.

Denounce a Mining Plan, which is a sad pattern of dispossession of land, areas of great natural wealth by greed Roide: A Serra do Courel, Terra Cha, and many other counties da Galiza.

All these plans and destruction are hidden under the false mantra of alleged job creation. An account that is simply quantifies that are created and never takes into account those which are destroyed in both the fishing and shellfish, such as in agriculture, small industry, in commerce or in the traditional rural and cultural tourism.

Defend the fishing, totally helpless in the path towards its scheduled termination.

Denounce the continuation of patterns of land out of areas of environmental value, and agricultural landscape, which is a model of industrial agriculture and unsustainable.

Demand measures to prevent the progressive abandonment of rural and countryside, which makes us dependent, having to import more commodities and products, by contrast, encourages the introduction of the dangerous and GM energy crops.

Our rivers are completely contaminated and over-exploitation and degradation is killing hydroelectric biodiversity. Discharges into rivers Umia, Tambre, Sar, Gallo, Alvedosa, Lagares, Lengüelle or disaster Xallas are just some examples

Our mountains are undergoing a process eucaliptización total, finishing with native biodiversity, for the exclusive benefit of the cells. A process closely linked to forest fires that generates greater vulnerability to the time we just suffer.

Harmful and dangerous industries are spread throughout the country, Regan, Ence, or the draft Waste Park in O Ribeiro ...

Denounce the artificial lakes of As Pontes and Meirama by the dangerous environmental and social impact and we denounce the possible relocation of the Ence localidade As Pontes.

Suffer a transportation system that promotes the use of private vehicle, means the continued construction of expensive highway and is a strong and irreversible impact on the territory. A system that never solves the problem of traffic congestion but increases rioja. Plan Estradas Vigo in Galicia or integrity are good examples of waste of public money in the perpetuation of an outdated and ineffective, leading to the abandonment of public transport, land, sea and rail.

Blow to our poor rail network is now in the hands of the AVE, which will mean the closure of dozens of stations and the delicate system desmantelamento train proximity, for a business destroyer territory elitist and unsustainable energy.

The legality urban, environmental and heritage are systematically violated with impunity and with the complicity of the various administrations, and even by its own action and initiative. The old towns and villages, our heritage, archaeological and natural prey of the most fierce destruction, including the spaces that are supposedly protected.

Disproportionate proliferation of industrial parks and planning guidelines for land simplistic and purely optical urban projects in metropolitan areas and central shocking as those of Ferrol and Coruña-Vigo-Pontevedra; masificador urban and wild areas golf, ineffective sewage treatment plants, waste incineration based on inefficient and polluting so much more ...

People shouted GALIZA NOT FOR SALE expressed our will to live and recover and enhance the space and know that we used for centuries so that we and those who come after have a guaranteed future.

"We know that the Earth does not belong to us but we who belong to the Earth." (1)

Therefore we can not sell.

Belong to an ancient land, hilly and difficult, humane sustainable manner for centuries. A land where almost every place and has had material value and meaning to life and is associated, therefore, an important cultural, historical, archaeological and ethnographic. It is an important intangible heritage that is integrated into the collective consciousness of the country.

"We know that humans did not create the fabric of life, but that is just a thread of it. And what we do in this tissue we will also us." (1)

People shouted GALIZA NOT FOR SALE we are very clear that we will not be indifferent to false speeches of citizenship and democracy when Criminalizes for us to be citizens and express what we think. We will not be indifferent to speeches empty of content words, and actions behind full of bias.

"As you can buy the blue sky or the warmth of the earth? Who can sell wind, ocean waves or the light of dawn? Human beings can not possess the land, nor can they be master of the sky, the freshness of the air or shine Auga. We are a part of the Earth, and she is a part of us. "(1)

That is why we are here to show that we still have our dignity intact by people who do not want to die. To protect the landscape, nature, earth, our identity and our way of life. To reclaim our right to live and to land a decent life.

To scream once more, with one voice, loud and clear:
