We citizens involved in politics, culture and the arts, in the work and on the job, studies and research we can not remain indifferent or silent before the danger of a real annihilation of the fate of the citizens of Basilicata for the improvident decision to bind over 60% of the entire Lucan to the interests of oil companies.
We can not even imagine what the motives for the ruling classes to give corporations the sovereignty over a territory so vast, with the risk of being sentenced to a miserable fate, in which the alms of oil royalties and grants in aeternum will only serve to make subtle improvements to an irreversible environmental degradation, social and civic life.
We believe that natural resources belong to the citizens of a country and should be used in the interest of all and especially for future generations. The population of Lucan, who lives in areas such as natural resources like water (think that Coca Cola has recently acquired the "Fonti del Vulture"), such as fossil fuels (oil and gas) abound, instead of benefit from this wealth, he sees increasing day by day use the insecurity. In a logic in which the idea of exploitation of self pervades all information in violation of the rights, corruption, impoverishment of the countryside, no future.
express our solidarity sit on the Committee Lucan NO OIL and Renewable Energy - formed by associations and environmental movements Lucania and of alternative political forces of the Left - which is trying to raise awareness of this grave danger, but meets the silence of the local and national institutions. The Committee points out the contradiction that on the one hand, sees the European Union urging member countries to increase the use of renewable energy and, second, Italy's national targets that halved, returning to the past. Lucania - a land of low population density, large resources of water and fossil beds - suffers from this contradiction and, consequently, the conflict between sources of energy, environment and local culture will only grow worse. Basilicata - with its state of extreme insecurity, including their own young - has a story primarily because it is primarily weak feeble and precarious condition of its ruling class, now screwed itself up into a deep organic crisis. Addressing the insecurity is an urgent need to put in hand immediately, to help restore the region in history. And, possibly, a story of progress in civil aviation. That prospect may have
this region, even if it is mutilated and brutalized its sunrises, sunsets and its landscapes?
How to accept a destiny, which is mostly made up of leaks from Basilicata, redundancy comparable only to those of the sixties? The same
South may have a destiny if there is a 'people of the South' which builds together with the policy and governments. The role of elites must be to adjust and set, they can not accept an action that, in a continuous rationalization of the existing, ends up being a factor of capitalist accumulation, which is perverse in the intertwining given the commodification of politics and politicization of the economy.
All this, of course, aware that the frantic rush black indirectly feeds the spiral of unholy war.
Here, we believe that all this should be reminded the ruling classes. What all this should be the people's ownership of Basilicata, so it is collected and leaves the process of passiveness that the prevailing neoliberal model brings with it, so it contributes to the prevalence of general interest capable of interpreting the history, interests and fate of this region.
We hope we can still stand on the shores of the Ionian Sea and admire the landscape portraits in such film copyright; can still enjoy those crisp lights captured by Ortega and Guerricchio by Rosi and Arrabal, you can still continue to take the loss of Levi and Pasolini, gathering in this southern part of 'all the southern hemisphere '; still be able to find the proverbial friendliness that has made famous throughout the world Lucan. We can not begin to imagine that sea dotted with platforms for the extraction of oil, those landscapes, dotted by Francesco Rosi, degraded by the intrigues of the arrogant selfish and shortsighted. NO OIL
The Committee has deservedly taken a great task which we hope will meet a response of the entire region. This is the meaning a written appeal for the salvation of Basilicata, collecting membership outside of it.
