Given that I haven’t paid much attention to Jovanotti since he became the idol of the left, that his Catto-Communist indifference to the “great Church that stretches from Che Guevara to Mother Teresa” was on my balls, but mine is now Timeline flooded with pseudo-environmental abuse against former idol and I have to defend him.
As usual, we think ideologically and emotionally without being rational and scientific. For example, everyone talks about the “destruction” of the oasis of the Casabianca di Fermo beach, showing before and after photos and botanical and natural history analysis. It will all be true, I have no doubt about that. But as so often, when we look at the microphone, we miss the macro. Not knowing the local situation, I went on Google to search for “Lido di Casabianca di Fermo” where the Jova Beach Party took place: a long line of houses, hotels, tourist villages near the beach and a long line of bathing establishments.
So it doesn’t seem that this whole naturalistic oasis was destroyed by Jovanotti’s concert. This part of the coast is already abundantly man-made and urbanized, what could the Jovanotti event have added or removed? But if the problem is now Jovanotti and his concert, then in the same way all bathing establishments with attached bars and restaurants and umbrellas, sunbeds should be removed.
And then, ironically, right in the Lido di Fermo, man has always built artificial cliffs to stop the natural erosion of the beach (the photo I took from the Tourist Promotional Site of the Municipality of Fermo, which has a whole series of human activities , which may affect the beach of Casabianca, of course no bird watching). “Er, but concerts can be done in stadiums”. Of course, but you can also sunbathe on the balcony of the house. The fact that the average Italian can’t swim, or in any case, when he goes into the water, he gets wet up to the waist and eats only after 4 hours, otherwise he says he dies of constipation.
So for me it can very well stand on the balcony and keep my feet in a basin, the effect is the same but at least it doesn’t ruin the beaches. So when I think of the hundreds of kilometers of Italian beaches occupied by houses, hotels, restaurants and bathing establishments, I ask myself: have all those who criticize Jovanotti and his events on the beach ever taken an umbrella and a sunbed? Have you ever eaten spaghetti allo scoglio with a sea view? Because if the answer is yes, then they’re not much different than the people who hopped with him in We Are the Center of the World.
