Manifeste Européen Appel aux organisations sociales, aux scientifiques, aux chercheurs et aux experts pour signer le «Manifeste Européen» pour soutenir une Initiative Citoyenne Européenne (ICE) pour une règlementation de l’exposition aux champs électromagnétiques (CEM) protégeant réellement la santé publique Sur la base des préoccupations des citoyens sur les champs électromagnétiques, telles que celles contenues dans l'Eurobaromètre spécial 347, et des avertissements de la communauté scientifique, diverses associations de citoyens de différents pays européens ont élaboré en 2013 un Manifeste européen de soutien à une initiative citoyenne européenne (ICE), pour une règlementation de l’exposition aux champs électromagnétiques (CEM) qui protège réellement la santé publique. Ce Manifeste Européen constitue une bonne base pour encourager réseaux dans chaque pays et au niveau européen, par la réglementation protectionniste de la pollution électromagnétique, en diffusent les alertes scientifiques et professionnelles indépendants: d’appliquer le principe de précaution et les principes ALARA et ALATA (aussi bas que raisonnable et techniquement possible) à la pollution électromagnétique, sur la base des recommandations de la Résolution 1815 de 2011 de l'Assemblée parlementaire du Conseil de l'Europe sur «danger potentiel des champs électromagnétiques et leur effet sur l’environnement ". Nous, la Coordination Européenne des Organisations pour une règlementation de l’exposition aux champs électromagnétiques protégeant réellement la santé publique, vous invitons à signer ce Manifeste Européenne, une bonne base pour une future ICE, en votre qualité de scientifiques, chercheurs et experts ou de représentants de vôtres organisations respectives. Indépendamment du lancement, ou non, d’une ICE, nous vous invitons à soutenir ce Manifeste européen, comme un soutien direct aux recommandations et revendications de précaution défendues dans chaque pays au niveau scientifique-professionnel, institutionnelle et de la société civile, qui sont fondées sur les éléments suivants: • Des recommandations de précaution des institutions européennes telles que la Résolution 1815 de 2011 de l'Assemblée parlementaire du Conseil de l'Europe, les résolutions du Parlement européen en 2008 (P6_TA(2008)0410) et en 2009 (P6_TA(2009)0216), des recommandations l'Agence européenne pour l'environnement de 2007 à ce jour (2009, 2011, 2013), et l’Avis sur l'Hypersensibilité électromagnétique adopté à la Section TEN du Comité économique et social Européenne (CESE) le 7 Janvier 2015. • Les revues de la littérature scientifique, tel que le BioInitiative Report 2007/2012/2014 (examen de plus de 4.000 études) et la Monographie de la Commission Internationale pour la Sécurité Électromagnétique (ICEMS) 2010 sur les effets non thermiques des champs électromagnétiques, les résolutions et appels scientifiques, tel que l’Appel International de 2015 (220 scientifiques de 41 pays, engagés dans l’étude des effets biologiques et médicaux des champs électromagnétiques non ionisants) et de nombreuses associations professionnelles et scientifiques. • Le Centre international de recherche sur le cancer (CIRC) de l'OMS a classé les champs électromagnétiques comme cancérogène possible pour l'homme (groupe 2B), tant aux très basses fréquences (2001) que aux radiofréquences (2011). Le groupe de travail BioInitiative nous informe des études ultérieures qui soutiendraient une classification dans le groupe 1, cancérogène pour l'homme, aux très basses fréquences (2012) et aux radiofréquences (2014 et 2016). • Des conventions internationales, comme la Convention internationale relative aux droits des personnes handicapées (2006) et la Convention d'Aarhus (1998), sur l'accès à l'information, la participation du public au processus décisionnel et l'accès à la justice en matière d'environnement. • Les règlements et les conseils plus protecteurs sur l'exposition aux CEM de la part des gouvernements et des autorités sanitaires, déjà en cours dans les différents pays. PRINCIPALES PROPOSITIONS DU MANIFESTE EUROPÉEN DE SOUTIEN D’UNE ICE POUR UNE REGLEMENTATION DE L’EXPOSITION AUX CHAMPS ELECTROMAGNETIQUES (CEM) QUI PROTEGE REELLEMENT LA SANTE PUBLIQUE: • Application du principe de précaution et des principes ALARA et ALATA (aussi bas que raisonnable et techniquement possible) pour l'exposition aux champs électromagnétiques (CEM). • Réduire les limites d'exposition aux champs électromagnétiques sur la base des connaissances actuelles de ses effets biologiques, avec une surveillance globale en temps réel, en commençant par 0’6 V/m (à l'extérieur) para radiofréquences et 1 mG à des fréquences extrêmement basses. • Campagnes d'information et d'étiquetage afin de minimiser l'exposition aux CEM. • L’école comme zones en bonne santé sans exposition aux CEM. • Reconnaissance de l’électro-hypersensibilité (EHS) et protection des personnes électro- hypersensibles dans le domaine de la santé, du travail, public et privé (conditions d'habitation). • Privilégier et promouvoir des réseaux, des technologies et des techniques biocompatibles et durables. • Favoriser études et recherche indépendante. Assurer la transparence, l'impartialité et la pluralité des expertises. • Favorecer los estudios e investigaciones independientes. Garantizar la transparencia, la imparcialidad y la pluralidad de las evaluaciones de los expertos. • Normes sanitaires de règles de vie pour la protection de l’exposition passive. Ces propositions seront la base d'une Initiative Citoyenne Européenne juridiquement viable. Une initiative qui vise à ouvrir le débat au sein du Conseil de l'Europe, du Parlement européen et des Etats Membres de l'Union européenne pour déboucher sur des modifications législatives nécessaires à la mise en œuvre du principe de précaution et de la défense de la santé publique dans le cadre du déploiement de la technologie sans fil et des réseaux électriques.

  • Environment Protection Engineering REVIEW of the ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT PROCESS of WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS in SPAIN
    Environment Protection Engineering Vol. 44 2018 No. 4 DOI: 10.37190/epe180402 JOSE LUIS FUENTES-BARGUES1 REVIEW OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT PROCESS OF WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS IN SPAIN The environmental impact over natural water systems, both marine and land, of the sewage is minimized with the treatment at Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs), but these facilities also gen- erate environmental impacts during the construction period and during the operation period. A review of the environmental impact assessment (EIA) process of WWTPs in Spain through the analysis of records of decision (RODs) between 2000 and 2016 has been performed in this work. The major envi- ronmental impacts during the construction period are noise, land use and disturbance of the air and water’s quality. During the operation period, the major environmental impacts are noise, odors from the depuration process and the visual impact of the facilities. About the EIA process, results show the processing time is too long, scoping phase has a success rate about 57.2% and regional public admin- istrations are the most participative, both at scoping phase and at public participation phase. In general, public participation during period of exhibition is very low, in twelve of the RODs nobody submitted any report. The role of environmental project manager and the work environmental journal must be strengthened. 1. INTRODUCTION Population growth, industrialization, agricultural practices and urbanization in- crease the water demand and thus the quantity of wastewater generated. The discharge of wastewater without any treatment process or the direct irrigation in landfills, cause environmental pollution and health problems [1].

Introduction This report analyses the process of elaboration of the Special Plan for the Upper Guadiana basin as a planning instrument aiming at managing water resources in the basin, providing water to the population and economic uses and preventing deterioration of valuable wetlands, helping achieve good ecological status of surface and groundwater. The traditional conflict between the development of agriculture and the protection of the wetlands in the Upper Guadiana basin is a case of special interest from a technical, economic and social perspectives due to three main reasons: (1) the large area it covers (16000 Km2 aprox.), (2) the large population affected (3) the importance of funding from the national and European level that have been invested in the area since the beginning of the nineties to mitigate the problem (Cruces de Abia et al., 1998). This case illustrates at least four key aspects related to participation, social learning and decision making in water planning: a) It illustrates planning processes carried out according to the dominant paradigm of technical determinism and administrative decision making, that requires instruments for imposing decisions made from above.

Doñana National Park is the largest natural reserve in Spain. It has a wide variety of ecosystems and plays host to numerous species of wildlife. Throughout history, the ecosystem has been constantly under threat from the drainage of marshlands, use of water for intensive agriculture and water pollution. The Doñana Natural Park is a member of the Natura 2000 network (ES0000024, ES6150009 and ES6180005) and is therefore protected under Directives 92/43/EEC and 2009/147/EC on habitats and birds. The petitions oppose projects that aim to extract, store and transport gas in the area, as well as to illegally use groundwater for intensive agriculture, which would be incompatible with EU environmental legislation.

It is the driest region in Europe and the most impacted by climate change. Further, it is the first and foremost bearer of fruits and vegetables to the rest of Europe. The region of Murcia, accounting for over 50 per cent of the Segura Basin District in South- eastern Spain, already exceeds its water resource availability by 200 per cent. Whilst the agricultural sector drinks 85 per cent of ground water, the rest of the city runs off reused waste water and desalinated sea water. As global warming dries the region further, citizens are still thirsty, farmers want business; existing tensions fester, and new ones arise. ‘From Spain to Murcia, from Murcia the Mar Menor, for its sunny days, for its calm waters, clear and clean, that once were and will be from Spain, Murcia.

  • Appeal to the Greenlandic and Danish Governments and the European Union to Help Protect the Greenlandic and Arctic Environment
    Appeal to the Greenlandic and Danish Governments and the European Union to Help Protect the Greenlandic and Arctic Environment Nuuk, Narsaq, Qaqortoq, Copenhagen, Aarhus, Brussels, Amsterdam and Berlin, February 10th 2021 The following statement has been signed by 141 NGOs: New Arctic strategies are underway in the Danish Realm1 and the European Union. By encouraging large- scale mining and oil and gas extraction, the existing strategies have a negative impact on Greenland’s pristine environment. Unfortunately, there are no signs that the new strategies will be any different. Greenland possesses some of the world’s largest oil and gas and mineral reserves and currently, there are about 70 active large-scale exploration and exploitation licenses in Greenland, covering thousands of square kilometres, and almost all related to surface mining projects. Most of them are located in Southern Greenland, which has the country’s richest biodiversity and all of Greenland’s farm land. Recently, the big rare earth elements mining project at Kringlerne has been approved, which is described by its owner as the probably largest deposit in the world. And in a few months, the controversial rare earth elements and uranium project at Kvanefjeld is expected to get an exploitation license. In addition to containing the second biggest uranium and by far the largest thorium deposits, the Ilimaussaq-complex, of which Kvanefjeld is a part, has the second largest deposits of rare earth elements in the world. WE CALL on the Greenlandic and Danish governments, the European Union, and everybody else who take an interest, to help establish an Arctic sanctuary.
