A piece of the history of Genoa, told the newspaper workers from starting from the Mazzini to the social experience , was at the center of the debate yesterday at the Bar Riunda. Meanwhile, in the room Aldo Moro, President Burlando and other speakers will address the topic of natural parks in Liguria , while all around the booth, visitors crowded the banquet with typical products of Liguria . the evening was the turn of the key theme of the global politics of our day: the difficult challenge of environment and energy , we asked to speak Ermete Realacci, shadow environment minister , that before ' meeting, he willingly submitted to the ritual around the restaurants to know the soul This Day and faces that make each day as possible.
relations that have occurred in the debate presented possible solutions to avoid the unmanageable and manage the inevitable .
These can be summarized effectively in 6 pillars proposed by the Dean of Engineering Paola Garden :
1) "clean " maximum fuels prior to combustion and emission filter after it;
2) continuously improve the 'efficiency energy ;
3) reduce consumption where possible;
4) to make really alternative, thanks to specific policies, renewable energy ;
5) convintamene invest in research ;
6) make a strong connection international and global energy policies.
Ermete Realacci denounced the very serious delay of Italy to the objectives of the Kyoto Protocol imposing in 2012 a 6.5% drop in CO2 emissions compared to '90. At present, Italy's emissions are actually increased by 9.9% compared to '90. This not only cost us a fine, which will reach almost 1.5 billion euro in late 2008, but will have a price that is not measured in Euros and they will pay future generations.
Recalling the famous speech moon, Al Gore said that just as Kennedy announced the goal of bringing people to the Moon and return to Earth within 10 years, so today the United States should announce the goal within 10 years to produce 100% of energy from renewable sources , to recapture the charisma he had in the past decades and it is necessary to go back to being recognized for good, leader of the world.
evokes perfectly the need for strong entrepreneurial spirit that is necessary to address this great challenge cover of Time magazine - as well as the image of this post - where it represented a version of the famous photo of marines island of Iwo Jima , celebrated recently by Clint Eastwood in the movie "Flags of our Fathers," in which, instead of the stars and stripes, is planted the tree of victory on the environmental challenge .
So while America is prepared to bet on Obama to pick up and win this great battle, Berlusconi's Italy is ready for its Caporetto energy and environment.
But, as pointed out Ermete Realacci, we will not stand by watching ...
