Explain in brief the following article:
“In Palermo, there is a new waste emergency. Landfills are open in the Bonagia area (via San Filippo) and via dell’Orsa Minore, where several collection points were set on fire during the night. Some residents say that in recent days, the dumpsters were already overflowing with bags and bulky items: so, taking advantage of the night hours, someone set fires to burn the piles of garbage that had accumulated over time. Firefighters intervened on the spot, while residents in nearby buildings closed their windows to avoid breathing in the dioxin released into the air. These are uncivilized actions that reflect the frustration of neighborhoods invaded by waste. Meanwhile, with the help of bobcats and mechanical shovels, Rap operators are trying to remove the heaps spared by the flames, which infest sidewalks and roadways. The scenes are the same as always: bags and pieces of furniture surround dumpsters and bins, almost completely hidden by wooden planks, old appliances, and cardboard.”
