Last Saturday was
one of the most appalling days I remember concerning environment. Our
land, Galicia – and Portugal, and Asturias, because the consequences will
affect all the world, make it our land-, was all in flames.
Pontevedra was
covered in smoke, and we were not undergoing half the terrible moments of Vigo,
Nigrán, Ponte Caldelas or Ponteareas.
What the reasons of such madness are is difficult to
understand. Whatever the motivations are: building more houses, getting a
longer contract with the fire brigades, screwing up your neighbours or just
being such a fool that you can’t help lighting one more fire- or several- when
you see flames; do not worry arsonists, you will also live in hell when the
world becomes an inhabitable place, whether you are wealthy or poor, powerful
or a pariah, own an anti-everything shelter or just no house at all. Disaster will make everyone of us equal.
