The Auga é Vida Platform, consisting of the Tameiga Forest Community, the affected water companies and Ecologists in Action, marked the trees in the communal forest area with a red cross “threatening” of GS360 shopping and sports complex RC Celta in Mos (Pontevedra).
Ecologistas en Acción explained in a statement that in the area affected by the commercial complex they both made repairs crosses in trees like banners who warned of the effects that, according to them, these installations would cause springs.
With these initiatives, environmentalists warn that “the deforestation and urbanization of half a million square meters of specially protected forest land will inevitably lead to the contamination and drying up of springs that supply water to thousands of homes.
They maintain that “the asphalt of the mountain greatly reduces the recharge of springs” and will carry particles of polluting fluids from urbanized areas.
Environmentalists warn of that tree cutting This will reduce CO2 capture, while greenhouse gas emissions will increase due to increased road traffic, “by locating facilities on a mountain far from the urban core.”
“The influx of 10,000 vehicles every day announced in the project will increase traffic on the surrounding network of secondary roads,” predicted the spokesperson for the Casal-Tameiga water pipeline.
