The article in question is of a kind, a masterpiece
. This is the transposition
"journalism" of a study of NOMISMA (
yes, you read right, that of Prodi ) in which, as in a world championship
at straws, trying desperately and clumsily to give drink to the simple minds the notion that the coal
would
friendly.
talk Low emission of particulate matter in relation to traffic (3% vs. 42%) without specifying that the micro-and nanopelveri issued by the city traffic are much greater in diameter (PM10), and therefore much less volatile
therefore dangerous to those emitted from power plants, cement plants and waste incinerators (from PM 2.5 to PM 0.01).
talk about "zero impact" regard to heavy metals on agricultural soils, of course, failing to mention the two biomonitoring carried out in 2005 and 2006, which certifies, in a totally uncontroversial, the concentration far from negligible
of heavy metals such as arsenic, vanadium, zinc, cadmium and so on. They talk about
economy of power generation from coal combustion without the slightest reference to
medical expenses resulting from the increased onset of diseases such as asthma, pulmonary, emphysema and various cancers
(lung cancer, lymphoma , myeloma, leukemia and polycythemia) , in relation to which the coal is the main suspect.
show, in clear and
false instrumental , data on the increase and consumption of coal by failing to specify that these increases are due to the lack of serious and far-reaching environmental policies in China and India, two emerging economic giants that soon will have to deal with the wickedness of their choices in terms of energy production.
not say that in the Western world coal consumption is in sharp decline: Germany said that by 2030 will be able to produce energy from renewable sources by an equivalent of 45% of its needs
.
not say that, to date, the main source of energy production is wind, which in 2006 exceeded the nuclear
. This lords of NOMISMA do not know or, if they knew, they looked good and people know it.
talk about co-existence of coal and farming of high value, you can talk about living together with people, carefully avoiding to throw into question the numerous territorial disputes that they see the citizens are determined to enforce its rights under the Constitution and a number of EU laws, primarily the
"precautionary principle" : Gualdo Cattaneo, in Civitavecchia, Tarquinia, in Brindisi, Genoa and Porto Tolle, people organized to avert the dangers arising from the operation of these factories of death and devastation. Often with encouraging results, such as the recent conviction on appeal
the former directors of central Polesine Camerini.
But the real treat comes at the end of article.
We quote verbatim:
"The perception of coal remains negative, however, not even thinking that pharmacy would dispense the active carbon and agriculture traditional farmers used as fertilizer the ashes, so it is the combustion of waste to fertilize the land , not degrade " .
are two things: either the author of this press release is a third grade child who, perhaps distracted by the flight of swallows
, for a moment forgot that
coal and charcoal
are two things very different, or is an adult in a
devious and diabolical
tried to confuse to that large group of inexperienced people who in good faith
tend to believe what is conveyed by the traditional media.
blurring of the toxic ash of coal and ashes from the fireplace home is at least what
revolting.
In such a context in which pharmacy
write "dispense carbon" without specifying that it is
charcoal, obtained by cooking wood in the absence of air (like they show in commemoration of
"coal fired" in Pomonte), very different from coal
extract hundreds of feet deep in Chinese mine or Indonesian, containing active ingredients such as healthy
arsenic, mercury, cadmium and radon ( isotope in gas form of '
uranium that makes coal
radioactive )
is a trick to seedy vaudeville magicians of .
The tragic thing is that someone in good faith, will have the bait, and maybe he is now convinced that the chimneys of the Central Iron Bridge exit excellent
aerosol all'eucaliptolo .
not we venture into further consideration, even if you could fill several pages on the subject.
We hope that one day soon, the law is determined to punish
a similar use of information.
