A POBRA Would CARAMINAL: On Saturday, thousands of people on ships and on terrain protested in northwest Spain against a planned textile factory and the opening of a metal me.
What they claimed were the climate challenges posed by both facilities by protesters in the coastal town of A Pobra would Caraminal in the country’s Galicia region of Spain.
Organisers, who described the march as a” search and carpet” protest, expressed concern about the plans by Portuguese company Altri to create a factory to produce lyocell, a semi-synthetic textile, at the site.
They expressed concern that the project would be used as cover to construct a polysaccharide flower that would degrade the area’s Ulloa River and Arousa Estuary.
The factory’s location is in Palas de Rei, which is close to a part of the journey route to Santiago de Compostela, which is visited by hundreds of thousands of people annually.
The organizers, who identify as the Program for the Army of the Arousa Estuary, also expressed opposition to the anticipated reopening of an open-cast metal mine in Touro, which is located just south of Santiago de Compostela. In 1986, the plant shut down.
According to Manoel Santos, a Green local agent, the Altri cotton factory” may spell the dying of the Arousa Estuary.”
The factory is sustainably sustainable, according to Galicia’s local government.
Any potential waste chance was refuted by a spokeswoman for Greenfiber, Altri’s conglomerate in charge of the project. She claimed that the manufacturer “scrupulously adheres to all Union economic regulations.”
