I was in Napoli last week. Several people commented how relieved they were that the trash nightmare was finally over. One of the many reasons being that local businesses lost millions from reduced tourism. Then the newspapers started announcing that the "incubo" was about to return, and the trash started to build up again....

Here is a current story on the crisis. Seems to place the blame more on "disorganized Government" than on "organized crime"
