Campaign: Let's Save Mallorca

Unsustainable tourism and urban development.

The platform called "Qui estima Mallorca no la destrueix" has presented the campaign "Let's Save Mallorca" to mobilise the society in favour of another Mallorca and to denounce and stop the current aggressive environmental and territorial policy of the Balearic Government, the Insular Council and the Town Councils.

According to the platform, the projects and plans presented during the last two years, such as the construction of new motorways, the creation of more desalinisation plants, the building of new hospitals in rural areas and the construction or enlargement of marinas, are based on a tourism and urban development model totally unsustainable, both economically and environmentally.

The same platform organised the demo in defence of the territory and environment that had the participation of over 45,000 people in February 2004, and is formed by several associations and groups such as GOB, Amics de la Terra, Son Real no té preu, Plataforma Autovia NO, Plataforma 2n Cinturó, Salvem La Real, SOS Can Vairet, Plataforma en defensa d'Es Carnatge, Plataforma Desdoblament Si Autovia NO and Plataforma pel Parc de les Vies.
