Earth Day 2008 in Milan

Today is Earth Day 2008. A day for awareness on environmental issues, energy and sustainable development on the planet. A creature survived the death of its founder, Gaylord Nelson. Of all the things I heard about it, I liked a lot of analysis on Radio24 Mila Bass (now the only radio I listen to the morning). In essence, the message was about the energy problem, and claimed that one can not hope for anything sustainable without a number of factors and "elements of consciousness":
  • need to harness the economies of developing a protocol within the environment (a Kyoto that includes India, China and the United States, essentially)
  • return to nuclear power (which is not enough but it could be a good percentage of energy)
  • Renewables: good investment, but again do not you do it for now. With current technologies, not all the sand in the world would be enough to build enough solar panels for electricity
  • Until then, it must cope with the difficult economic situation with energy, oil, gas and clean coal.
Being a big picture that I share a lot, I like so much more than other things I heard on the subject. And I have a suggestion always valid, the usual: we can all do something, through the actions of energy savings (estimated to contribute 20% of national expenditure if implemented seriously - twenty percent! ! ), the collection well done the education of others, and the knowledge that teach that certain actions of high environmental impact are wrong represents at least half the effort needed to change things. Meanwhile, the price of Oil rose over $ 118 a barrel. Each $ 10 per barrel more cause losses 500 000 000 000 dollars the world economy.
PS: We conclude with a thought a bit 'happier, as a good sales pitch;) ... but it is nice that the Google logo today? :)
