“On 29/11/2019 Salvar La Tejita filed a complaint with the Environmental Prosecutor’s Office for the damage caused by the resumption of the Cuna del Alma construction works in Puerto de Adeje.

The bulldozers have excavated some 9,000 m2 of land in recent weeks, where the Cardonal-Tabaibal habitat is located, the nucleus of the largest population of sad viborina and two archaeological sites.

The urgency to cautiously halt the works has been transferred to the Ministry of Finance as crimes against archaeological heritage may be consuming, once again, may be consuming.” @salvarelpuertito

The LIG IC4049 Ignimbrites and Pleistocene Plinian fall deposits from Puertito de Adeje has now been sponsored by over 2,000 people. THIS IS A DECISIVE MOMENT FOR EL PUERTITO as IGME is lobbying the Government of the Canary Islands and ‘beyond’ to protect it. You can learn more about this site on the Spanish Inventory of Sites of Geological Interest here, or sponsor the area’s geology here, We need to be many more! A free and beautiful way to raise our voice for the Puertito we want.

Sharon Backhouse, a journalist, director of GeoTenerife, and Documentalist, was Interviewed by MirameTv to discuss the movement to protect El Puertito’s geology at risk from destruction by a resort.
