Post Viral Fatiguereflux



In recent decades, the construction of the Galician landscape has been decided by two interest groups: on the one hand, the hunters and farmers, burning forests and leaving a low scrub forest with suitable to their interests. On the other hand, the pulp industry, forcing the state to restock with short rotation species.

Thus, the Atlantic forest has suffered an extraordinary decline, now being the exception among monocultures of P inus Radiata and Eucalyptus globulus and large tracts of barren hill and Penedos ( half the province of Ourense). The Galicia

barbaric the last century, forest modeling has been carried out by some interest groups, with the acquiescence of the government. The only thing that has been limited in recent years Xunta is extinguish fires that were emerging, without addressing the root causes. You could do worse: the exponential increase lume investimentos against or has created a real business around the fire, a new interest group will be very difficult to disable.

The group of citizens has stolen the power to decide which model we want for our land mount. The administration has ignored the problem and let them do (laissez faire ) as ultra-liberal doctrine, if not participated in the robbery and acted in the service of companies.

of Galicia Galicia is and should be the ones to decide what Galicia want for themselves and for their children:

- A model of forest that only benefits a few, imposed since the Franco dictatorship to the present democratic days, as opposed to biodiversity and a comprehensive forestry service use of the rural people. A Galicia pine, eucalyptus and glades.

- Or a Galicia with a sustainable forestry native species of high economic value, not cheap wood intended for grinding. A preserved natural environment bring benefits to the very impoverished rural areas, so they could benefit from forest que hasta la dictadura fueron suyos y les fueron enajenados a mayor gloria y beneficio de las empresas transformadoras. Desde el turismo a la recolección de setas, nueces, castañas... vemos que un bosque íntegro es una riqueza para las regiones que lo mantienen (Asturias, Segovia, Bretaña, Vosgos ...). Un bosque esquilmado, atrofiado, quemado, trae consigo pobreza, infertilidad, destrucción del paisaje, emigración, abandono....

El paisaje gallego está en construcción, mejor dicho, en destrucción . Sobre el lienzo que sostienen las madereras, pintan los cazadores con la paleta de colores que han escogido las celulosas, los de las brigadas le dan los retoques end and decide where to put Xesta green or black carbon. Meanwhile, the government covered the work and nod vaguely. People only see fabric scraps from the car window, and passes to them among indifferent and resigned.

Galicia Others are drawing in which our children will live. What if we took us dibujasemos brushes and we want? What if Galicia out again that was before Attila and his barbarian hordes ruin this land?

Stop dreaming and let's get to work.
