Galiza in 2008.
Until we arrived here:

galician coastline is undergoing a process of urbanization and speculative privatization unprecedented Destroy landscape and irreversibly damaging their fisheries resources and shellfish.

The artificiality of the coast And the continued construction of landfills (which, in most cases, Ground are free for companies that have nothing to do with Sea), joined pollution levels ever recorded so far in our estuaries and a Plan of Ports Sports Absurd that aims to create more moorings in Galicia that those who have The entire west coast of Italy, which multiplied by four Exist in France for every kilometre of coastline: Privatization of what Is all for business and enjoyment of a few.


In this mayhem, we must join a plan Acuícola devastating means destruction hundreds hectares Of the best preserved areas of our coastline for construction Multiple and huge farms, for the benefit of both companies Multinationals.


's Population Merexo (in the yellow circle) would be isolated semirodeada sea and by the hatchery
of 270,000 m2 which also lead many of their lands
crop. One example, among many possibilities, which means this Plan Acuícola
.

Our Rivers are undergoing a process of degradation and hydropower Who joins the total abandonment of rural and the hills: eucalyptus and Fire.
The latter are also victims of a rampant Plan Wind that does not take into account areas of high ecological value or protected.

Moreover Galicia are two of the thermal more pollutants from Europe and export over 40% of the electrical energy that is produced here.

These Plans (farms, marinas or wind farms Indiscriminate), do not mean any breakthrough for citizenship. Generate a ridiculous number of jobs and wealth that Produced only ends up in the pockets of big business, Big investors, without affect virtually nothing in the fabric Economic and social life. But destroy, degrade and usurp it It is all of us: the environment, resources Natural landscape and territory.

Another plan Xunta, the Mining, is a sad model espoliación territory. < /font> It means also the destruction of one of our natural treasures The most valuable and most beloved, a treasure that had come up intact Us: A Serra do Courel . But Terra Cha and many other regions of Galicia suffer its consequences.


Pizarrera in Courel

A string of hazardous industries still desparramándose the country.

Reganosa
Reganosa, in the estuary of Ferrol, is a prime example of Recklessness, irresponsibility and contempt for the citizenry. Ence continues, Year after year, seriously polluting the estuary of Pontevedra. The project Park Waste Ribeiro draws in the direction for which we Want to carry. And the list could go on and on. Benefits for some Few and insecurity, garbage and destruction for everyone p.

transport model and mobility that is to promote and perpetuate what private vehicle Ahead of a public transport misérrimo now. The Construction of highways and roads high capacity (base and shaft Theme of evil called " Rebalancing Plan Territorial ) Represents a strong impact on the land and car use Private most emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.


Anyone see the ridiculous map of the railways Galician Know that we are talking about: Four stripes are poorly drawn All our "rail network." Far from trying to remedy now Want to sell (how trinkets to the Indians) goes as a solution. A business also destroyer of the territory, elitist, energy Unsustainable and that in no way solve the problem of Backbone of the country.

As if all this were not enough, the councils of our towns and cities draw General Plans of Arrangement which, far from improving pretend Quality of life of citizens, who are to see builds more .

A display of urbanism savage Which in most cases meant to duplicate, if not more, the number People within ten or fifteen years. Little or no one speaks At those levels of services, public transport, bike path Purification ... Building and destroy the rural environment is eo slogan, Addressing it is not known who absurd growth forecast Population.

With the alibi of the expansion of the Natura 2000 Emptied the entire contents of the previous system of protected areas. Thus, and only in the province of Pontevedra, more than 20,000 hectares of Ground lost all protection earlier. The historical heritage, Our petroglyphs, stone monuments and mámoas preys upon the Destruction fiercer.

zoning and environmental law is violated with impunity and systematic With the complicity of the various administrations, if not for her Own performance and initiative. The country's crammed with works, performances and Projects illegal protected and blessed by our Rulers. The downing of final judgments, including those of the Court Supreme are never executed, increasing the feeling of impunity And some of the mockery and contempt for the citizenry.

And to say of the political class: Silent, accomplices and sponsors of the disaster. Around and others all serve as ever to the greed of Major economic interests subsidizing their parties and bribe The ideas they claim to represent.
In aiming, with the voice of their masters, intend to deceive Words like progress, development, growth ... Always adding, Jaculatoria as a hypocrite, the word "sustainable". In reality Growth is only for those who pay them.
Resources of Galicia (and the world) are limited, and This race is plundering and pillaging of a path that does not lead to Nowhere, or that leads only to mortgage the future of our children And the misery of the next generations.


remain only we, the citizens and
citizens to defend once again this
Earth from destruction scheduled

Recover the spirit of old deeds to show that even Keep intact the dignity of people who do not want to die.


Today, more than ever, Galicia needs you,
your voice and your strength

Together And the firm will be on February 17 in Compostela to defend our Landscape, our nature, our identity and our way of life. Together and firm, in the sun or the rain, it will be a radiant Sunday Hope for the land of our fathers and our children, For the future life and, why not say it too, for our Threatened planet.
