Today I am going to write about something very serious that has been happening in our country from a long time ago, for almost fifty years: a constant contamination on the sacrifice zone of the Quintero - Puchuncaví bay.
What we saw on 21 of august of this year was just a little demostration; the tip of an iceberg that has been growing for decades. More than 300 kids had to be evacuated from his schools, what should be supposedly a safe place guaranteed by the State, because of a toxic cloud made of gases released from 18 plants located on a very limited coast of only 5 kilometers.
All of this contamination has been happening because of the impunity and lack of environmental regulations in our constitution that have always protected the pockets of the companies's owners that make up the industrial cordon.
After four months, there has not been any solution because kids are keep getting sick, although now the numbers are less. I think those plants should have closed immediately, in order to ensure people's health.
Like I said before, contamination isn't something new to people from Quintero - Puchuncavi zone. They have been suffering contamination on air, water and earth constantly from years ago. And in what it seemed to be a desesperate look for help and justice, last weak a delegation of activists from the bay reported the situation on ONU's headquarters, at Geneva, Switzerland.
