Cutting Down Forests to Fight Prostitution


Due to many recent failures in enforcing anti-prostitution laws, Angelo di Paolo came up with a ingenious solution to solve the prostitution problem. Prostitution has been a major problem in the Italian region of Abruzzo that authorities have sought to eliminate. Ever since the rise of the conservatives in the national Italian government, fighting prostitution has become one of the top priorities. This was spear-headed by anti-prostitution legislation introduced by Mara Carfagna, equal opportunity minister, who herself once worked in the softcore porn industry. The laws complement with Silvio Berlusconi's plan to fight against human trafficking, which is responsible for a significant portion of the prostitution problem.

Angelo di Paolo's solution was simple: Clear the entire 69 acres of wilderness that surrounds the Bonifica del Tronto road. Every plant life along the River Tonto needs to be permanently removed. By removing the natural cover for the prostitutes, it will discourage them from selling their bodies in the area. Paolo came up with this brilliant idea after the recent failures in 24-hour patrols, raiding, and electronic survelliance. Many environmentalists complained of course. It's unclear whether or not the plan will curb prostitution or simply make them move to other areas.
