Mother Earth is Crying

U.S. embassy warns about the city's health and safety issues.
Well that is comforting and loving to hear!!
I was reading the newspaper, and this didn't surprise me after seeing all the garbage laying around that it is a huge problem.

What are we doing with Mother Nature, Mother Earth?


"U.S. embassy in Rome has warned U.S. citizens they may face a health risk in Italy's southern Campania region due to the garbage crisis that has filled streets with piles of rubbish. Open fires with potentially toxic fumes, and/or sporadic public demonstrations by local residents attempting to block access to dumps. The fault of political mismanagement, conflicting interest and organized crime--guess that is the Mafia--
Last month the European Commission took legal action against Italy over the thousands of tonnes of uncollected waste, saying it posed serious health and environmental risks through the spread of disease and through pollution of air, water and land."
