Nelle grandi città italiane, da Milano a Roma, Torino Bari, Palermo e Napoli, la situazione ambientale non è soddisfacente: lo riporta Ecosistema urbano, l'indagine annuale realizzata da Legambiente. Metà dei centri urbani presenta livelli di inquinamento allarmanti, il trasporto pubblico urbano è sottoutilizzato e la raccolta differenziata dei rifiuti solo al Nord ha raggiunto standard accettabili. "Le politiche ambientali urbane spesso non tengono il passo con l'Europa" - ha commentato Roberto Della Seta, presidente dell'associazione. Belluno si colloca in testa alla classifica dei 103 comuni capoluogo e alcuni centri evidenziano risultati brillanti in singoli campi d’indagine. Ultima classificata è Ragusa, (era Taranto nella scorsa edizione) preceduta da Benevento, Frosinone e Oristano. Presentazione dell'indagine il 19 ottobre a Bolzano.
