The president also said the energy transition is urgent
The President of the Italian Republic, Sergio Mattarella, declared on Saturday (28) that environmental protection and the issue of climate change have long been addressed inadequately.
The President attended a United Nations (UN) seminar on climate change in Bonn, Germany.
“For a long time we have inadequately addressed the issue of environmental protection and climate change, artificially contrasting the reasons for managing what already exists with those of the future of our children and grandchildren,” Mattarella said during the event.
“This is inadequate. We thought we could tackle it in no particular order, with our eyes focused on past discoveries, with common resources and obsolete tools,” he added.
The head of state also underlined “the urgency of an energy transition which must be concrete, pragmatic, sustainable and effective”.
In his speech, Mattarella underlined that the climate “is a challenge for innovation where the future is at stake”, despite the fact that the impact of the European Union on global ecological stability is less relevant than that of other industrial giants which contribute decisively to polluting the planet. planet.
“The intensification of the frequency of natural disasters is there for all to see and affects all aspects of our lives, devastating entire territories, causing victims”, he concluded.
