The sub-headline of the event organized by ISDE Italy and ISDE Sardinia<\/a> (International Society of Doctors for the Environment), in cooperation with Navdanya International, was \u2018Sardinia Terra Viva \u2013 Sardigna Terra Bia\u2019<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One of the aims of this event was to raise awareness about Sardinia environmental issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, the Sardinian region sums the largest contaminated area (total 445.000 ha in Sardinia and 345.000 ha in Campania). The third of the Sardinian population lives in contaminated sites (compared to an average of one to six for whole Italy). According to the Italian National Institute of Health, in 44 Sites of National Interest for decontamination (SIN) on a total rate of 10.000 deaths including all causes, in Sardinia almost 4.000 ones are caused by cancers resulting in excess comparing other regional data. These clear figures related to SIN\u2019s in Sardinia confirms the existence of a high health risk\u201d
