The environmental issues poisoning the province of Brescia, exceptionally numerous and diverse in nature, make this area a representative case for understanding how current development models are absolutely unsustainable and destructive to both the environment and people. The lack of laws regulating waste disposal, mafia infiltration, and the pursuit of maximum profit by industrialists have, over time, created an apparently efficient economic system with disastrous consequences for the land and its inhabitants. The incidence of cancer and other diseases is much higher here than in the rest of the country; furthermore, the province is home to one of the largest incinerators in Europe, a huge concentration of landfills, the highest number of radioactive sites and intensive livestock farms in Italy (there are more pigs than people), and one of the two worst PCB contaminations ever recorded in the world.
