Thick White Discharge

Uscire dalla recessione

the political agenda of the G8 Environment Ministers of Siracusa are the problems that this growth has led to reckless and lawless. What we think can do the Department of Earth in this summit? Nothing or at best, to defend the interests of their country and economic groups and industry that the Minister is in office.
Nothing!
Climate change and biodiversity are the main themes of the next G8 Environment. That energy problems and dominion over nature.
On these issues we can not intervene with imaginative strategies and improbable subject of policy statements, memoranda of understanding, bilateral agreements and similar nonsense.
continue to seek solutions, even with all the skills and goodwill as possible, and driving without inducing profound changes in the lifestyles of the people "developed", does not lead anywhere. No one has the solutions and when someone offers to quit Formula dalla crisi economica e ambientale globale senza portare gli interessi di grandi gruppi economici purtroppo non ha alcun ascolto.
La strada della decrescita non fa gli interessi di nessuno in particolare ma semplicemente di tutti. Se riduciamo i consumi, produciamo meno rifiuti, impariamo ad autoprodurre qualcosa per comprare meno, se rallentiamo, se diventiamo tanti a fare questo non ci sarà bisogno di centrali nucleari o di salvare specie animali e vegetali in via di estinzione.
Non si tratta di continuare a chiedere ai nostri governanti di risolvere un problema che non ha soluzioni: dobbiamo partire da noi, da ognuno di noi.

A Siracusa un gruppo di persone che da anni riflettono su questi temi e provano continuamente to change their lifestyles, reducing, repairing, recycling and slowing the movement founded a Club of decrease Felice.

The Circle of the movement founded by Maurizio Pallante, was born in Syracuse in these days when there is an atmosphere of preparation and demonstrations "to" and "against" the G8.
The Club has been adhered to GTutti - Environment Forum and within its own events will be the next Maurizio Pallante April 4 Syracuse at 9:00 ITIS "E. Fermi to talk about "decreasing to emerge from recession" and to present to the public and the press the circle of Syracuse. A club that wants to find ways to practically implement the decrease in a difficult area where still retain the myth of "development".
To quit the easy slogans and clichés where we all agree to no avail and experience in their everyday fun and rewarding ways to "decolonize the imagination."

All The Types Of Burs

Dal 21 al 23 aprile 2009 in Piazza Santa Lucia

climate justice and peoples' rights
2009 is a crucial year for the Planet. By the end of the year, the international community will reach a final agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions after the Kyoto Protocol expires in 2012 provided.
The impact of human activities has altered the natural balance of ecosystems with serious consequences for the health of the environment and the species that inhabit it. Changes in climate are the most evident sign of this process, closely linked to the dominant development model. To stop the overheating the planet and contain the disastrous effects of climate change, whose main victims are the poorest, need to change the neo-liberal economy dominated by corporate interests. need a profound cultural and political change , which affects the modes of production and consumption and that will stop the fever of the Earth.
We have to do for our future, to ensure the beauty of our landscapes and biodiversity. We have to do to enable all to live in peace, fight poverty and to free us from the wars and conflicts that arise for the control of resources.

The revolution that we have the objectives provides accurate and in ten years: a reduction of 20% of the total consumption of energy through savings and efficiency gains, increased by at least 20% energy needs from renewable sources and reducing 30% of greenhouse gas emissions.
Italy so far has marched in the opposite direction, increasing rather than decreasing their emissions. Now the government proposes a different model, based on return to nuclear power and plans to build a future in central Dubrovnik. It's a throwback that focuses on technology and anything but dangerous economic threatened to thwart the development of our country "revolution" technology (but also economic and social) triggered by the development of renewable sources.
We can not be passive spectators of these choices, but instead we want to decide our future. Especially if we look at the serious environmental problems of our country. Failing to clean up the environment in the petrochemical, ecomafie, fine dust to the stars, recycling to a minimum, unbridled consumption of land, for years relegated our province over the last places in the rankings on environmental quality.
For these reasons we formed the environmental forum "G-All," a coordination of individuals and associations who, at the upcoming G-8 environment of Syracuse, will discutere di tutela dell’ambiente, di lotta ai cambiamenti climatici e di riconversione ecologica dell’economia.
Per tre giorni, dal 21 al 23 aprile a Siracusa, Piazza Santa Lucia sarà animata da incontri, convegni, seminari e concerti all’insegna della pace, della solidarietà sociale e del rispetto per l’ambiente.
Lo faremo con il contributo di importanti personalità della comunità scientifica e della società civile e soprattutto di tutti i cittadini che vogliono impegnarsi per un mondo più sostenibile e più giusto.
