The IU-Greens candidate for the district of Cartagena-Mar Menor, Victoria Rodriguez, has shown concern today about the possible consequences on the health of the public activity of an asphalt company in San Pedro del Pinatar.
Rodriguez explained that the activity of that industry, "Southeast Asphalt", near the center of population, it generates unpleasant odors and can have health consequences for residents of the municipality, who already have complained about this issue.
In his view, the regional governments are bent on denying that there is contamination "in the Region of Murcia, and the Minister of Agriculture and Water, Antonio Cerdá," has left more than demonstrated their irresponsibility and no interest in improving the quality of air. "
"They have not implemented action plans against pollution, hidden population data, inspections are minimal and appear to be working in favor of the economic benefits of businesses, not citizens," she added.
He has also stressed that pollution increases 20 percent chance of developing cancer by the Spanish Group for Lung Cancer, and that the emission levels should be governed by the values ​​that mark the World Health Organization (WHO).
