Work Death Well Wishes
Come ormai riportato da tutti gli organi d’informazione locali, il portavoce del Ministero dello Sviluppo, il veneziano Stradiotto, ha risposto, dopo sei mesi, all’interrogazione di alcuni deputati Verdi e di Rifondazione, riguardo all’ormai tristemente famoso stoccaggio Independent gas that wants to do in the basement of Lower Modenese.
The inhabitants of the countries involved, the institution itself and the province of Modena, have expressed their negative opinion justified on several occasions, both for the inappropriateness of such a quantity of gas stored in an area considered by eminent geologists, risk seismic for both the principle of safeguarding the health and welfare of local communities, and an area already highly degraded and man, considered, not unreasonably, "Tumor Valley" because of the high proportion of deaths from cancer, a of the highest in Italy and Europe.
As I said, the government's belated response stata quantomeno preoccupante, di fatto, ha avvallato l’ipotesi azzardata che la suddetta ditta, abbia tutte le carte in regola, cioè la copertura finanziaria per poter iniziare, dopo l’eventuale approvazione del via, anche se quasi tutti sanno il contrario.
Ora le comunità locali e tutte le forze politiche locali, chiedono che la Regione Emilia, ancora latitante, prenda una posizione di netto rifiuto e non semplici parole di circostanza.
Sapendo e condividendo tali preoccupazioni il Comitato di Tutela Ambientale “Castelcrescente” esprime la sua piena e incondizionata solidarietà alle comunità ed ai comitati che spontaneamente sono per questo nati, e se si rendesse necessario saremo al loro fianco per qualsivoglia wanted to take the initiative.

Melinda, the only apple Doubt in Italy, also promotes practical environmental protection to search for a "total quality" in their business. The Consortium has chosen the Trent to reduce its dependence in terms of electricity supply to take advantage of "clean energy" from renewable sources through the commissioning of 18 photovoltaic systems for the production of electricity to be installed on the roofs of centers mini-storage. The installation of photovoltaic panels - each panel installation requires about 500 square meters - was started during the month of March, and work has been completed by April 2008, will produce a total of more than one million kWh per year for a savings of 3-4% of the annual energy requirements of the Consortium. A significant savings but it will allow the Melinda Consortium to recoup the substantial investment of € 4 million and a half only over the long term (over 10-12 years). The production of "clean energy" by the photovoltaic systems installed by Melinda prevent emissions into the atmosphere for over 580 000 pounds of carbon dioxide year and then will make a valuable contribution to the slaughter of so-called "greenhouse gases". A contribution to the defense of the quality of Melinda that if you want a more tangible way of comparison, equivalent to the construction of over 25 hectares of forest adult.

Business Well Wishes In Time Of Death

aware of pollution, but unwilling to change their lifestyle. It is a problem that no one wants to face.
The Italians are very concerned about pollution. Yet many are still those who insist on changing their lifestyle, only 28.1% would be willing to give up car ownership and 36.3% to replace their appliances with more efficient ones. This is the response of a survey of New Ecology, the Environment League Monthly, which showed the urgent need for rethinking of global energy systems, models of development and use of consumer goods.
The fact that the pollution is caused by human activities there is an almost total awareness: they have convinced the 87, 2% of Italians, and 64,8% ritiene che l’effetto serra sia una questione da risolversi con urgenza.
Ad essere maggiormente avvertite sui cambiamenti climatici sono le donne( il 54,5%) mentre il 70,2% considera l’inquinamento un problema grave come la disoccupazione. Ma cosa si fa per cambiare? Secondo il risultato del sondaggio di Legambiente, 82,2% approva la raccolta differenziata spinta, il 72,5% la sostituzione delle lampadine tradizionali con quelle a basso consumo, mentre il 75,1% pensa sia importante fare attenzione agli sprechi nei consumi domestici.

If Scorpio Men Like Me
Our community is growing visibly, after years of peace we are witnessing the birth of a new country that is in addition to those already become dormitories for the city of Modena.
I do not think that's what our old directors wanted for the future of our town, but I think they wanted a beautiful country, with good facilities, available to all, respect for tradition local, tied to its roots mainly agricultural.
is true, everything changes, but changes are not always right, rich in functionality. In fact, if we take an example, which seems to me representative, taken from the budget that our beloved mayor has proposed for 2007, one immediately realizes that even the announced tender for development of the Abrenunzio is known at this time one thing already doomed to failure, not because of the likely absence of demand, but because its not needed, as production plant.
New trend of Commons, should be to foster a more appropriate environment in which we live, not its complete destruction.
Ravarino Harmonizing the agricultural context, is much more important that the unjustified increase of cemented areas, deputies only to increase, even indirectly, to the emission of CO 2 , and only.
That area would be cheaper, and certainly more productive for the future, turn it into a welfare factory, we give an example? Why not build a photovoltaic power plant, to meet the needs of our district?
Do we really think they need new buildings that take advantage of our already limited resources?
Other examples, and may help convince some of our farmers in the conversion of their production, now with a low income, in the production of biomass capable of feeding a small local power plant.
We really adapt to the European directives, which require us to reduce by 20% CO 2 by 2020, building as they could, factories with the sole purpose of creating goods but who do not, and can not do it, our needs?
But are we really so foolish in thinking that they are always others to do it for us?
The time has come, we must roll up their sleeves as they would our fathers, and to rethink a new model of development, starting with small communities, to be sure what lies ahead is not easy and certainly not painless But time is short, we must absolutely do, or at least groped for a better future for our children.
We must move away from this bedlam hypocrisy of "Sustainable Development".
But how sustainable development can there be if we glorify economic growth, technological leapfrogging, hoping in vain that, like a dog chasing its tail always arrives late and can not bring anything good
I remember at the end of a maximum (Ernest F. Schumacher)
"We need to live more simply
to allow others to simply live "
