Opinion of Podemos Xàbia: «Coherence - and lack of it»

August 30 from 2021 - 09: 16

Our mayor's cry for help is, of course, justified. For years, the summer collapse of Xàbia's infrastructures and the deterioration of the environment on land, sea and air shows that our town has exceeded the limits of its capacity. And you don't have to dive into the sea to see the disaster: destroyed forest, beaches where there is no room after 10 in the morning, crowded streets and highways, and the heyday of bottles and illegal parties.

The curious thing about the case is that this situation seems to surprise Mr. Mayor. But what did you expect? With the only proposal of sun and beach tourism and construction as an economic engine when it is not Easter or summer, is it not logical that more and more tourists come? Because at an average price of € 2500 / m², houses are not built, but tourist residences that are obviously not for the waitresses or gardeners who live and work here, but for people who also bring their boat on vacation. And the General Plan foresees 300 new houses per year - a continuous plan from the 70s that stipulates one person per house (in Spain they are 2,5 / house, which means that to satisfy the growth of, for example, 10.000 of the population resident, in Spain 4.000 homes are built, while in Xàbia it would be 10.000 for the same forecast). Will there be only one person in each chalet in summer?

While the park of tourist residences - which is what is built here - continues to grow, the pressure and tourist overcrowding will continue to increase. It is not aeronautical science, but basic mathematics. Whoever sows winds, gathers storms, and Mr. Chulvi's PSOE has already been sowing in the Javea Town Hall 2004 since.

    Well, I prefer that the life expectancy of my parents has been extended to eighty-eight years at the expense of the environment, that is, thanks to the hospital disposable materials, thanks to the pollution caused by the electrical energy that has allowed during the last century an intensive investigation in the improvement of the quality of human life, to the oil that allows helicopters and medical flights, ambulances, etc.
    Thanks to all these advances caused by electricity, oil and plastics, life expectancy has increased 28 years compared to a century ago.

      Of course, of course….
      And thanks to the Atomic Bomb I don't speak Japanese, perfect rationing.
      I imagine that you are a councilor, or a tertullian, right?
      Hold on to the males with the mental squeeze, bravo champion!

    Totally agree.
    I know how greedy money is for the city council, but I think it is more important to respect the environment, otherwise we will end it in the long run.
    Thank you very much for allowing comment
