A ship allegedly containing radioactive waste was found in the sea just 20 miles of the Cetrara coast almost 2 weeks ago. <br /><br />The barrels haven't been tested for their contents  just yet. I heard on the news that they first want to test the fish in the area and then find another two ships which are said to be in the area. <br /><br />Three days ago, with the help of underwater robots, they found two skulls on the ship. <br /><br />I've just read that radioactive waste was also used in constructing the salerno - reggio calabria and more recently Crotone hospital and even more worrying still 2 schools in Crotone have foundations that are said to be full of radioactive waste! <br /><br />Calabria only tourism to offer; what now???  :'(<br /><br />[url]http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/skulls-found-on-mafia-ship-laden-with-toxic-waste-1793509.html[/url]<br /><br />[url]http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8275320.stm[/url]<br /><br /> http://www.calabrialiving.com/forum/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1254135741/0#0 Calabria Living Forum/GETTING STARTED... http://www.calabrialiving.com/forum/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1254135741/0#0 Jo &amp; Chris both on the flight from London Stansted on Sept 23rd.
