THE "TREE FESTIVAL 2010" LEGAMBIENTE

The sixteenth edition of the Festival of the Tree of Legambiente: all weekend for school children, citizens and the government will create a series of initiatives throughout Italy dedicated to planting of trees, to make the places we live in the most beautiful, green and breathable. Concrete action to combat climate change and prevention of hydrogeological, but also an opportunity to focus attention on the green plays in maintaining the environmental balance of the planet. At the weekend dedicated to the Feast of the tree Legambiente alongside the classic themes of respect for the green and pollution control, commitment to the conservation of habitat and ecosystem, in line with the proclaimed International Year of Biodiversity UN. "Italy is the country with the highest level of biodiversity in Europe and preserve this wealth is our prime duty, "said Vittorio Cogliati Dezza, president of Legambiente." This is a huge natural heritage capital of inestimable value for all of us greater biodiversity will strengthen the defenses against external aggression, are those posed by climate change or landslides, the introduction of genetically modified organisms or the activity of deforestation. More biodiversity will, ultimately, better quality of life for those living today and an area for future generations that will do it tomorrow. "
Biodiversity is also the central theme of the poetry competition for children of this issue. After the success of last year, in fact, Legambiente and Susanna Tamaro, spokesperson of the initiative, propose the contest "Biodi" race rhyming verses for children aged 7 to 13 years and, in collaboration with the publisher Giunti, animated reading of the book "The magic circle" that says the risk of loss of trees and extinction of flora and fauna.

In addition, for the fourth consecutive year Anve, the Exporters Association of Nurserymen, and renew the mutual Legambiente commitment to reducing the greenhouse effect with the operation "of one million trees for the climate" for at least five years nurseries dell'Anve keep planting a million shrubs that contribute significantly to carbon sequestration in excess. "This is the fourth year Anve fully supports the organization of the Festival of the Tree of Legambiente - said Maurizio Lapps, president of Anve - maintaining a significant amount of planting trees to give a tangible sign of the struggle that the nursery can carry forward against climate change. The enthusiasm with which the nurserymen Anve participated in this initiative demonstrates that the world of professional interest Green has the attention of all to urban pollution and greenhouse gas emissions reduction commitments that States must undertake. Representing an important sector of Italian agriculture, the nursery it is for the difficult task of describing the lines of sustainable development, capable of intercepting new applications for an increasingly difficult market. "Initiatives that are taking place from north to south in days of 19, 20 and 21 are many and the creation of new green areas, in addition to redevelop the area will help to convey important messages. Among the technical partners of the initiative, says the Fiskars Tree Day by providing products gardening that will facilitate the operations of planting. The holiday tree is sponsored by State Forestry. (AISE)

BIODIVERSITY OF 'THE WORLD IN ITALY

Today the Italian museums are extraordinary research on biodiversity, in many cases not only of Italian biodiversity, but also of many other countries around the world. Here are some examples:
- Trento-Tanzania: the elephant shrew in international cooperation. In Tanzania, research by Michele Menegon and Francesco Rovero of the Trento Museum of Natural Sciences, have discovered new species of amphibians and reptiles, including the elephant shrew (Rhynchocyon udzungwensis), with its more than 700 grams in weight and more than 560 mm in length is among the largest of the known ones. The research in Tanzania, one of the world's hot spots for biological richness, they also involved the local people living around the forests studied.

- Turin, the frogs of Madagascar and the very rare snake-worm. Together with WWF and the Zoological and Botanical Tzimbazaza, research by Franco Andreone the Regional Museum of Natural Sciences of Turin have discovered many new species of amphibians and reptiles of Madagascar, an island not yet reached by the pathogenic fungus that has decimated the amphibians in the rest of the world and this is a perfect laboratory for testing and preparatory actions protect the extraordinary malagasy frogs. Also in Madagascar have also zoologists Turin discovered a specimen of a rare kind of "snake-worm" (Xenotyphlops), enigmatic blind snake which had no news for over a century.

- Milan-Arabian Peninsula and the brooding "Solar Energy". Ornithologists of the Natural History Museum of Milan have described a previously unknown mode of incubation of the eggs, based on heating by the sun's heat: desert islands in the Arabian Peninsula Droma digging the tunnels that serve as incubators heated by the sun, while their parents dedicated to breeding only 28% of their time, leave their eggs for up to 58 hours. Apart Megapodidi, Galliformes widespread in Indonesia and Australia, leaving eggs and chicks to themselves after the deposition, similar cases are unknown among birds.

- Rome Mexico and the Middle East for hundreds of species ever seen. In recent years scholars of the Museum of Zoology University of Rome (Robert Winch, Valerio Sbordoni, Taglianti Augusto Vigna, Vincenzo Vomero Roman zoologists and many more) found in Mexico and the Middle East hundreds of species previously unknown to science.

- Rome-Australia and the new butterflies. Among the numerous searches of the Muses of Zoology of Rome, in 2009 the search for Alberto Zilli in Australia has discovered a new species of moth (Speiredona Darwinian), dedicated to Darwin in honor of the 150th of the publication of his work the origin of species.





few grains from the Collection - the most famous birds of Europe, 1 million shells and beetles are smaller than the world to the Museum of Zoology of Rome: the historical collection "Arrigoni degli Oddi" is the most famous collection European ornithology ever, about 15,000 specimens of birds from the period 1850-1930. With over one million specimens of shells, Monterosato collection, kept in "secret rooms" of the Museum, is one of the largest collections of Malacology (shells) around the world. And in Rome are also the world's smallest beetles, just half a millimeter long, part of the historical collection that includes nearly Luigioni 200.00 units. For lovers of the sea, the museum contains a diorama of the huge coral reef in the Red Sea, with a front display of nine meters. Dioramas
record in MILAN: It is the Museum of Natural History in Milan here the largest series Italian dioramas, up to 10 meters in front of each exhibit, to rebuild dozens of habitats, including prehistoric landscapes now lost, with pets from around the world.
The giant dinosaur in Bologna: the Museum of Paleontology Cappellini di Bologna houses a huge skeleton of Diplodocus, unique in Italy about 26 meters long and 4 high, arrived at the museum in 1909.
100 m watching in Calci (Pisa): the gallery of skeletons of cetaceans, a walk "underwater" no less than 100 meters long is the centerpiece of the Museum of Natural History and the Territory of Calci, the largest Italian collection of its kind.
Remember to stay in Genoa: the Natural History Museum of Genoa exhibits collections that are derived directly from the great voyages of exploration of the nineteenth century, with specimens from all over the world. Fish fossil
exclusive VERONA: Not far from the city, the field of Bolca in prehistoric times occupied by the sea, is an inexhaustible source of fish fossils, still mined today exclusively by members of one family and kept in the Natural History Museum of Verona.
Marine organisms of Naples: the last century, the Zoological Station Anton Dohrn is the most important marine biology research center in Italy, also appreciated by Darwin, with whom Anton Dohrn was in direct contact. The museum houses collections of marine organisms (difficult to manage because they are made mostly of water) prepared in a spectacular way.

WATER: ARSENIC BANNED FOR 1 MILLION IN CASE OF ITALIAN: Off 128 IN COMMON

ROME \\ aise \\ - "The usual mess" Italian. "The exceptions were intended to address and resolve definitively the problem, which is known, the concentration of certain pollutants in the water distributed in some regions and instead have become yet another ploy not to intervene. Luckily we thought Europe to stop the perpetration of a practice detrimental to public health. Now the municipalities involved to do what they have already had to do immediately after requesting the exemption, namely, informing the public and put under the aqueducts. But do not generalize, 59 million Italians have no problem with arsenic in drinking water and tap water can count on guaranteed quality and controlled. "So the scientist in charge of Legambiente Ciafani Stefano commented on the decision of the Commission European Union not to provide a third exception to Italian municipalities where drinking water contains arsenic concentrations far above the limit Law (10 micrograms per liter). The environmental organization in a document takes stock of the situation on waivers and possible solutions, pointing out that out of 157 municipalities that had applied for three parameters (boron, fluoride and arsenic), 128 have not obtained because they sull'arsenico asked to increase its concentration in water determined by the value of 10 micrograms per liter to 30, 40 or 50 micrograms per liter and was granted up to a maximum of two years to 92 municipalities for the fluoride to 17 for boron and 8 for arsenic, but only up to 20 micrograms, according to the recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO). "To be within the limits - added Ciafani - simply proceed to operative treatment in a few months, as has already happened in different parts of Italy. In fact, in 2003, requests for exemption were made by 13 regions out of 10 parameters and in February 2010, the renewal request submitted by Italy was limited to six regions (Campania, Lazio, Lombardy, Tuscany, Trentino Alto Adige, Umbria) for three parameters. So - concludes Ciafani - the reduction of demands, both in terms of territories that the parameters involved shows that, with appropriate investment, you can get out of the exemption by ensuring that people drinking water in compliance with the law. "Legambiente remember that municipalities that have received the exemption should come into compliance within the next 10 months and particularly in areas where there will be presentations has been renewed for more than 175 million €, aimed to reduce the concentrations of arsenic, fluoride and boron in the waters and thus avoid having to resort to new exceptions. The project involves the construction of new water systems or for the supply of water from sources that have concentration values \u200b\u200blower than those of substances regulated by law, or the realization of treatment systems and water mixing. The exemptions are valid for three years which can be renewed for up to two more times. The first two exceptions are decided by the Ministry of Health while the third should have the green light by the European Commission.
