Solid Waste

Another VBS.TV TOXIC exploration, this time of the municipal solid waste situation in Naples, Italy. As in the previous VBS.TV TOXIC installment, these two videos do have some strong language.


"In the city of Naples and the surrounding countryside of Campania, Italy, the Mafia has controlled the waste-management industry for decades – dumping and burning trash across its rolling hills and vineyards. In 1994, the European Union declared the situation an official environmental emergency, and things have only gotten worse since then. VBS investigates and finds mutated sheep, poisoned mozzarella, alarming rates of cancer, and pissed off farmers ready to push back against the Camorra, Italy’s most powerful and dangerous criminal organization (and the government that enables it)."
