The residents of eastern Halkidiki and the Strymonic gulf have been engaged in a non-stop struggle against the earmarking of the area as a mining site and against any mining activity in general for more than 15 years. Citizens, scientists and people of high caliber from all over Greece and abroad support this effort. The environmental council of the Aristotelian University of Thessaloniki, with its February 2007 resolution regarding the mining venture in our area, points out the potential dangers for the public health and the environment, the grave degradation of the unique natural and cultural landscape of Halkidiki and the unprecedented projected consumption of the natural capital of our country. A disproportionate consumption indeed in comparison with any public benefits the mining venture may ever produce.
