We are citizens of Marostica and Pianezze two small town of Italy (province of Vicenza) and from May 2004 we are molested from smells emitted from a company that produces Chemically cross-linked polyethylene foam.
The company owner of emissions it has been established with a new plant near the houses and other companies.
The company produces through a chemical process the cross-linked polyethylene foam: the chemically foaming process of the polyethylene give off gases and smokes that they have a stench similar to the burnt plastic, provoking burning in throat and to the eyes, depriving us stay in the open air of summer and forcing living to us always with the close windows.
According to the analyses made from the company and the Regional Agency of Environment, the responsible substances of the uneasiness are the ammonia, the acetophenone, the aldehydes and the ketones.
These harassments give strong worry for their nature: These are emissions of plastics it is doubt their hazardous and dangerousness.
A substance is hazardous if the effects are manifested in the short period, how ever it is dangerous when the effects manifest in along period with the tumor formation (some aldehydes is cancerogenous).
After months of endure, hoping in a resolution of the issue, the problem has been comunicate to ARPAV, ASL, Local Police, Police officers and Common of Pianezze that they have stated and written up numerous reports on the presence of it smells troublesome beyond the normal tollerate.
These documents can be demands from anyone near the Agencies that they have emitted to it (Law 241 / 1991). From the 2004 we strike ourselves because these smell come eliminate to you, smells already you notice in other country even if all fall from clouds and they do not know null. The quality of our life is ruined in order always thanks to intelligence of some persons, and nobody till now has recognized the uneasiness public, someone has had the courage to say that we would have to cohabit with the problem, persons that would have guardian the public health, has the single guilt of being considers "sons of a smaller God", pertaining to a society where the economic interest prevails. After this adventure we have uncovered many phony, persons who have turned the shoulders to us and have accused we to speak to prate.
Now we have lost all: house, life and freedom to breathe in the open air, we have uncovered a society that it has of the prejudgments and intolerance towards who has the courage to speak in order to make to be worth the own rights and to ask justice, and therefore we have lost also the sense of belongings to a native land that does not recognize to us.

The benefit is private but the evil is public!
