From Piazza San Bartolomeo you can see a piece of the hill that in Sant'Elia Difesa servizi spa, a branch of the Ministry, wants to transform into a carpet of panels. It is there that the anti-energy speculation committees, from 10, have met against the 37-hectare photovoltaic project . "It would be an occupied piece of the city," say Francesca and Giuseppina Carta, 72 and 66, who came from Ussana to support the protest. "It is our duty to do it: the transition is fine but not the assault."
There is no crowd in the square. "And it's a bit sad, Sardinia is still beautiful because we defend it", is the voice of Assunta Biscu and Salvatora Pinna, 68 and 80 years old, who at 6 boarded the bus that left for Cagliari from Orgosolo. "We participate, it's important to be there, the defense of our Island depends on us" .
Michele Zuddas, one of the promoters of Pratobello 24, opens and closes the demonstration. «Politics is not seen today. It runs away, it is absent. So far no law has protected Sardinia. We must do it, this state assault is not acceptable . The Sant'Elia hill is an area that should have been passed to the Region a long time ago. Furthermore, it is an area with environmental restrictions, there cannot be room for a photovoltaic park».
