The presentation of the results of Schooner green 2015 took place in Rome during a crowded press conference.
To illustrate the state of the sea was the president of Legambiente, Vittorio Cogliati Dezza, who told the press that the Catholic, the ship of ‘association, has sailed around Italy for two long months collecting data on data on our sea.
The ship Catholica started his tour throughout the Italian peninsula since last June.
During the press conference the most responsible Legambiente reported that the sea Italian does not enjoy good health.
The situation of the Italian sea is very worrying Legambiente researchers found that the percentage of pollution our waters has increased.
According to the report of Green Schooner our beautiful coast envied by the whole world every 62 km has a point where the sea is polluted.
Researchers at Schooner green analyzed 266 samples taken in different seaside resorts.
The result that almost half of the samples to 45% accuracy, contieneva number of bacteria than is imposed by European regulations.
According to Green Schooner the situation in Italy is very serious and it is due to lack of treatment plants.
In some regions, particularly in Sardinia, the situation is not critical.
‘pollution in the beautiful Italian island was found only near the mouth of courses of fresh water.
Also in Friuli Venezia Giulia and Veneto the situation compared to last year, it has not changed.
The regions where pollution was found in greater amounts than in the past are the Marche and Abruzzo.
The researchers of Green Schooner, however, have found that in Sicily the situation is very critical .
In Sicily, the researchers analyzed 36 water samples, 14 of which are with a high rate of pollution.
George Zampetti, geologist and director of Legambiente commented the situation in Italy:
“ The pollution detected by Green Schooner is essentially caused by discharges purified through rivers, ditches and small canals They discharge directly into the sea. A direct consequence of the lack of a proper sewage treatment, which still covers 42% of sewage in our country. The serious inefficiency purifying Italy is not only harm the environment but also the economy: it is estimated, in fact, that the EU sanctions are equal to 476 million euro a year from 2016 until the completion of the works “.
