only mnemonic exercise of which are the main beneficiary, for this opening of 2011 I was pinned the list of environmental events that could be related to the activity of fetch wood.
The number of events is considerable, including World Youth Day, national campaigns and local initiatives of just about everything. In any case, although it is of interesting initiatives we could not certainly to "stay behind" them, and I would not: in the number of events are concentrated in my view positive commitments and outcomes are not always the same sign.
in favor of celebrating the fact remains that these events contribute as intended by the promoters to raise public awareness on environmental issues addressed by giving them "breathing" for increased global attention to the political world.
a less happy note is that of good causes in which I put the environmental issue there are many-and not because of intent but of the context in which we live-is a risk of overexposure.
By now almost every day on the calendar are a series of celebrations aimed at raising public awareness to protecting our planet, if we insert all in the bombardment of information we receive from the media, composed mainly of quantity at the expense Quality
, even for the "duplication" as represented by many items over the internet or in newspapers in reporting the same news, the effect you get is cacophonous.
As a result you get the opposite of the intent desiderato.Il treatment of the issue as a curious new or which devote a few lines from which the study is banned due to lack of time or space.
unfortunate situation that from the standpoint of visibility I think there is no way of remedy, if not the easiest (and forced): the ability of choice of those who endorse or support the topics covered.
Rather than give up, it comes to choosing from time to time which are the initiatives that support and give weight to the local level, considering the interest that can trigger and put a pinch of "lived" because the daily struggle For example, deforestation not remain obscure and distant goal, but it can be made tangible and protected through the daily actions of each of us.
