DJ Ronaldo
In the serene landscape of Es Vedrà, where the Torre des Savinar stands proudly as a testament to history, a new narrative is unfolding—one that echoes with the beats of controversy and the clash between fame and environmental stewardship. The stage is set by DJ Ronaldo, the son of former footballer Ronaldo Nazário, known as DJ Ronald, whose recent videoclip shoot at this iconic location has sparked a storm of environmental concern.
The Es Vedrà Viewpoint: A Tranquil Haven Disturbed
La finca des Savinar, the picturesque area known as the viewpoint of Es Vedrà, has, in recent years, transformed into a magnet for those seeking stunning views and Instagram-worthy snapshots. However, this popularity comes at a cost. The influx of visitors has given rise to issues like parking chaos, noise disturbances, and an accumulation of garbage. Parties have become a common occurrence, complete with makeshift stalls selling food and beverages, all transpiring on private property within an environmentally protected area.
DJ Ronald’s Unpermitted Videoclip: A Breach of Environmental Protocols
The latest twist in this unfolding saga involves DJ Ronald, who, it seems, decided to use the Es Vedrà viewpoint as the backdrop for an extensive videoclip. The owner of the land, however, was quick to discover that no permissions had been sought, neither from him nor from the Ministry of the Environment. This land, forming part of the Es Vedrà Nature Reserves, Es Vedranell, and Illots de Ponent, enjoys protection as a maritime-terrestrial natural space within the Natura 2000 Network. It holds designations of LIC (Place of Community Importance) and ZEPA (Special Protection Area for Birds), alongside the autonomous ANEI (Natural Area of Special Interest).
The owner expressed, “As the owner, I confirm that DJ Ronald does not have permission from the property of the farm to carry out any activity. The affected area is a private property and, in addition, a protected area and seriously affected by the influx of tourists. Any economic or promotional activity that is carried out requires permits from both the owners and the Ministry of the Environment, something that the aforementioned DJ does not have.”
Legal Measures and Ongoing Disputes
In response to this breach, legal measures have been initiated. However, it seems that such measures have not yielded the desired compliance. The property owner laments, “We have taken legal measures before, and those responsible normally withdraw the material, but it does not answer.”
The viewpoint, which has become a social media sensation, faces ongoing challenges. The clash between the rights of the property owner, the need for environmental protection, and the allure of a celebrity-endorsed location underscores the complexities of balancing fame and ecological responsibility.
Environmental Impact and Community Concerns
The popularity of Es Vedrà as a tourist destination has, for years, caused inconvenience to the locals and left an evident impact on the area, particularly during the summer months. The clash between the allure of a stunning location and the need for environmental preservation raises broader questions about sustainable tourism, responsible celebrity influence, and the role of legal frameworks in safeguarding ecologically sensitive areas.
Conclusion: A Symphony of Nature, Fame, and Legal Echoes
As the controversy surrounding DJ Ronaldo’s videoclip shoot at Es Vedrà unfolds, it brings to light the intricate dance between nature’s serenity, celebrity influence, and the legal safeguards meant to preserve our environmental treasures. The Es Vedrà viewpoint, once a tranquil haven, now resonates with the echoes of a complex dispute—one that challenges us to reflect on the delicate balance between appreciation and protection, fame and responsibility.
