Georgios Stournaras, Professor of Hydrogeology and Engineering Geology at the University of Athens, speaks with Marino Mouzakitis (newspaper “I Epohi”) about wind turbines in the Cyclades (case of Tinos) in 2020 and beyond.
The professor, along with the scientific community, has produced a report with the support of the Bank of Greece. However, the report has gathered dust on the shelves. Scientists even appealed to the judiciary (Council of State) in 2014.
This interview confirms the concerns of everyone who has spoken on the show and foreshadows the dire situation the country has been experiencing in recent years.
It discusses water scarcity, the flawed and hasty Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) conducted by “green” investors, and the destruction on multiple levels—issues that have been repeatedly highlighted across nearly all of Greece.
In short, the academic community and official institutions have long sounded the alarm about these dangers.
