On behalf of Izquierda Unida los Verdes de la region de Murcia on the pollution and deterioration of the environmental conditions of the Mar Menor 

The petitioner denounces the continuous deterioration of the Mar Menor lagoon, caused by the effect of the intensive agricultural development of the surroundings of the Mar Menor and Campo de Cartagena. In his views, this has intensified the levels of nitrates in the water of the lagoon exponentially, and has motivated the eutrophication process, that reached its most important and visible degree in the summer of 2016, but since 2012 nitrate concentrations reached very alarming figures. He denounces the inaction shown by the regional government and by the State government through the Segura Hydrographic Confederation, allowing the development of an uncontrolled intensive agriculture. The petitioner request to take the necessary measures to try to reverse the current situation of eutrophication of the Mar Menor and enforce the objective of achieving the good state of lagoon waters.
