I veleni nelle cave: a rischio terra e acqua del Salento

The chilling images reveal the burial of special and hazardous waste in the underground quarries of Cutrofiano: a probe equipped with a camera penetrates the bowels of the earth and reveals industrial waste dumped underground and the heavy metal contamination that has poisoned the soil and water in central Salento. An initial cleanup has taken place, but funds are scarce and further interventions are urgently needed. Report by Danilo Lupo (filming and editing by Matteo Brandi), from the episode of L'Indiano on "ghost waste," aired on TeleRama on November 7, 2013.
