The report on consumer soil 2015 shows the incidence (40%) of the roads on the territory. Monza and Brianza at the top of most provinces cemented
Alexander Lerbini History Article May 6, 2015
A growing loss of land in Italy, although at a slower pace. Nearly 20% of the Italian coastline, over 500 square kilometers, the equivalent of the entire Sardinian coast, is now irrevocably lost. It ‘been waterproofed 19.4% of soil between 0 and 300 meters away from the coast and almost 16% between 300 and 1000 meters. Also wiped out 34 thousand hectares in protected areas, 9% of the areas in danger hydraulic and 5% of the banks of rivers and lakes. Cement is really gone over invading even 2% of areas considered non-consumable (mountains, steep slope areas, wetlands).
A map of the boot “artificial covering,” that the Ispra, thanks to the very high resolution cartography, in his Report on the Consumption of Soil in 2015 – on 6 May in Milan, during the conference at the Expo side “Resume Land” – uses new data and updates the previous rounds with national ones regions, provinces and municipalities, without neglecting coasts, land along lakes and rivers and areas to hydraulic hazard.
Italy 2014 lost more ground, although more slowly, leading to an estimated 7% of the percentage of land directly waterproofed (the 158% more than in the 50s) and more than 50% the territory that, although not directly involved, he suffers the devastating impacts. Slows the rate of consumption between 2008 and 2013, traveling at an average of 6.7 square meters per second.
The loss of land in Italy
municipalities, provinces, regions
The new estimates confirm the loss of farmland cultivated mainly (60%), urban (22%) of lands and natural plant and not (19%).
These are the suburbs and areas of low density areas where consumption has grown faster. The city continue to expand disorderly (urban sprawl) exposing more and more to the landslide risk. There are provinces, like Catanzaro, where more than 90% of the urban fabric is low density.
In the ranking of the regions’ most consumed, “confirmed the first place Lombardy and Veneto (about 10%), while the Liguria are the black mesh cover territory within the 300 meters from the coast (40%), the percentage of land consumed within 150 meters from water bodies and one of the areas in danger hydraulic, now sealed (30%). Among the areas to flood risk it is instead of Emilia Romagna, with over 100,000 hectares, holds the record in terms of surfaces. Monza and Brianza, at the top of the provinces more cemented, reaches 35%, while the provinces of Naples, Caserta, Milan and Turin exceed 50%, even reaching 60%. The all-time record, with 85% of land sealed, goes to the small town of Casavatore in Naples.
Until 2013, the per capita value recorded a gradual increase, rising from 167 m2 to 1950 for every Italian, nearly 350 m2 in 2013. Estimates of 2014 show a slight decrease, mainly due to population growth, reaching a value per capita of 345 m2.
The roads remain a major due to soil degradation, representing in 2013 about 40% of the total area consumed (roads in agricultural areas 22.9%, urban 10.6%, 6.5% in areas of high environmental value).
“Continuing at this rate in the cement is likely to aggravate the already precarious balance of the Italian territory. We must decide to change direction and to do so requires an effective collaboration between institutions and private entities. It takes policies favorable to the redevelopment in place of those that push to continue to build, encouraging speculative intentions. It is vital to focus on streamlining bureaucratic procedures, especially those of local authorities: whether to demolish an old building and rebuild it takes fifteen years and an endless list of practices and official documents, it is clear that urban centers will continue to grow outward , with all the consequences. No need to wait for more disasters to be convinced to change course. “
This was declared by the engineer. Sandro Simoncini, Adjunct Professor of Urban Planning and Environmental Law at the Faculty of Architecture of the University La Sapienza of Rome and president of Sogeea SpA, commenting on the report in 2015 on land use in Italy presented today by the Institute for the Protection and Environmental Research (Ispra).
“Even as regards regularization, the bureaucracy is a deadly obstacle – says Simoncini -. Today municipalities have yet to complete the instances of amnesty made thirty years ago and collect their concession fees, while promoting the construction of new buildings in the suburbs. With traditional procedures pending applications needing biblical times: in this way, citizens continue to live in uncertainty and local governments do not bank as would enable them to realize the necessary infrastructure to securing the territory. There are new systems that allow you to slash time and costs through streamlined procedures and transparent: they must overcome the resistance and partisan interests that too often bind in glove local authorities and builders. “
