Floods and mountain slides in Ikaria. Was it “an industrial accident”? Do you know what “industry” is located on the mountains of the island? Do you know what “other industry” is located lower in the villages and the mountain industry feeds it with raw material in the summers? I doubt if you do. Due to overexploiment, unexistent maintainance and measures of safety, the “industrial site” collapsed during and as a result of a torrential rainfall that lasted for 28 hours.

Look at how angry Nature (call her Goddess Artemis perhaps? call her geomorphology?) was because some people have deforested the mountains for money. Woe and Shame on them!
