Ue, Galan: il valore dell’agricoltura si misura anche attraverso l’occupazione

Non si può fare a meno di chiederci come sia possibile pensare di attrarre i nostri ragazzi verso questo nobile mestiere se non si punta sull’innovazione e non si cerca di diminuire drasticamente la burocrazia, che è letteralmente “cresciuta” intorno all’agricoltura.

Italy: Enel starts operating plants to capture and store carbon emissions

Enel Italy’s biggest energy company, started operating the country’s first plant for capturing carbon dioxide emissions and storing them underground in a pilot project intended to make the technology viable.
Enel won 100 million euros in European Union funding for two projects to sequester emissions. The first is a 20 million-euro facility to capture 8,000 metric tons of CO2 a year at its coal-fired plant in the southern Adriatic city of Brindisi. It’s a test for a larger-scale project at Enel’s Porto Tolle coal plant in northeastern Italy, which will capture 1 million metric tons of the greenhouse gas.
