Mission Earth

By: Storielibere.fm
  • Summary

  • by Angelica De Vito with Luciano Canova A podcast produced in partnership with NatPower | Sustainability is a complex challenge. The United Nations' 2030 Agenda, in setting the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, has established that sustainability is not just an environmental issue, but also a social and economic one. This integrated vision is what must guide us toward changing our development model. A path to be taken together, as a community, because individual actions, while important, are not sufficient without an adequate institutional and legal framework. Mission Earth is a 5-part journey through the facts, themes, myths, and virtuous practices of the ecological transition we are experiencing.

    Nov 21 2024
    A podcast by Angelica De Vito, in collaboration with Luciano Canova | A podcast created in partnership with NatPower | Fossil fuels, renewable energy, or a return to nuclear power? The debate is open—and particularly heated—now that the close connection between the climate crisis and energy issues is clear to nearly everyone. But why, despite the evident and undeniable advantages in terms of sustainability, is the transition to renewable energy still so debated and hindered? We’ll explore this question in this episode of Mission Earth, navigating, as always, through data, undeniable truths, myths, and virtuous practices to try to explain the need for an approach that balances short-term benefits with long-term sustainability goals.

    Nov 8 2024
    by Angelica De Vito with Luciano Canova A podcast produced in partnership with NatPower | Currently, 2 billion people worldwide live without access to water or do not have access that meets basic hygiene standards. We are facing a global water crisis, which is a direct consequence of the climate crisis and, in turn, has been recognized as "the most severe threat multiplier to global security," as stated by UNEP, the United Nations agency dedicated to environmental issues. While many parts of the world are grappling with health emergencies, social tensions, and even outright wars linked to water supply difficulties, in wealthier and more developed countries, we still need to debunk the myth that water is a free resource.

    Oct 24 2024
    by Angelica De Vito with Luciano Canova A podcast produced in partnership with NatPower | Air pollution and climate change are the two greatest challenges humanity faces today. These are global phenomena, closely interconnected, with deep roots in the economic structure of the world we live in. From Naples to Milan, from China to India, passing through Canada, we will try to take stock of the situation, analyzing the causes and reviewing scientific studies, legislative interventions, and solutions that border on science fiction. Along the way, we will discover that, for once, in terms of collective participation, Italy is at the forefront, while also debunking the false myth that climate change does not exist.
