some photos taken today, March 1, 2010, in the area of \u200b\u200bMusile di Piave (VE), documenting the environmental destruction that is happening along the floodplain of the river Piave, after a regional project against flood risk on the usefulness of which I have very strong doubts, and I'm not alone, as evidenced by the articles in the Gazzettino di Venezia, which link under the photo (just click to enlarge).
I find it very disturbing that an intervention of this kind of deforestation extends to the mouth of the river Piave, transforming the floodplain in a long and mestissimo graveyard of trees, as you can see from these few photos. 
Among the trees knocked down I found this sign, that I took pictures because I can make us reflect on what is subtracted from the public, this action, in addition to ' immeasurable intrinsic value of the trees : a long pedestrian path, bicycle and equestrian , reported including in many tourist guides, the decimation of the trees abbruttirà, make dull and much less enjoyable and meaningful.
This path should be regarded as a flagship of who administers the territory, and instead is disfigured him on very questionable: other upstream interventions would certainly more effective flood.
Here's what it says: Veneto Region, the European Community.
of Park riverside f iume Piave.
pedestrian path, c iclabile and equestrian.
The sign is dated 1994: at that time probably thought of this park as a resource for citizens, while the region has now apparently changed his mind ...
I am more than convinced that break down these trees will not help to stop any flooding of the river ; instead worsen the quality of life of citizens abbruttendo and impoverishing the country.
Less trees = less barriers against pollution, fewer animals, depletion of biodiversity University.
Among the prohibitions to protect the park there is also the sacrosanct prohibition to harm the plant species : ago really angry to see this rule violated today by the same institution that had established in 1994. And I close the post with a couple of links to articles of Gazzettino out these days: Sunday, 21/02/2010
