From the early 20th century, and for fifty years over, the Massa Lubrense coast – at the far end of the Sorrento peninsula – hosted many limestone quarries that have quickly taken the place of the traditional extractive activities. Pushed by the growing demand for raw materials, necessary for the great public works envisaged by the law regarding the Economical Development of Naples (1904), and those financed by the Neapolitan High Commission (1925-‘36), the quarry industries have irreparably modified the morphology of large portions of the coast between the bays of Puolo and Recommone. Therefore, it is not a coincidence that the first oppositions into the destruction of this extraordinary natural context will arise from Capri, where in July 1922 was organized the first Landscape Conference by the island mayor, Edwin Cerio. The conference, a local and national extraordinary event at the same time, allowed to reflect on the recent Italian law regarding the Protection of Natural Beauty, laying the foundations for the development of a true 'national landscape conscience'. Thanks above all to Cerio and to the Massa Lubrense mayor, Salvatore Cerulli, in the following years will be at last listened the condemnations by Norman Douglas, Gino Doria and, later, Roberto Pane, contributing so to the progressive closure of the lubrense quarries by the mid-century.

Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I'd figured I'd ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest
authoring a blog post or vice-versa? My blog goes
over a lot of the same subjects as yours and I think we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail.
I look forward to hearing from you! Excellent blog by the way!
Hi to all, the contents existing at this site are really
remarkable for people knowledge, well, keep up the nice work
fellows.
Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if
it can survive a 40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off
topic but I had to share it with someone!
Fantastic blog you have here but I was wanting to know if you knew of any forums that cover the
same topics discussed in this article? I'd really love to be a part of group where I can get
comments from other experienced individuals
that share the same interest. If you have any
recommendations, please let me know. Thanks!

Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess
I'll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying
your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I'm still
new to the whole thing. Do you have any points
for rookie blog writers? I'd really appreciate it.
I do not even know how I ended up here, but I thought this post was great.
I do not know who you are but definitely you're going to a famous blogger

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the page layout of your website?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect
with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or
two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

Good site you've got here.. It's hard to find high-quality writing like
yours nowadays. I truly appreciate people like you!
Take care!!
