This one is the #Climatestrike week, a
global event where young people all over the world are strongly claiming their
right to have a livable future for themselves and their sons and daughters. The
demand is to see concrete actions implemented to counteract the climate change
phenomenon, by now grown at unsustainable levels.
At iaiaGi, apart from our age, we feel this event very close to those values
upon which we have founded our project since the very first day, and we feel
that we share motivations and objectives with it. For this reason we will be in
the streets as well this Friday Sept. 27 in Modena, to claim the immediate
application of substantial, radical and, most likely, exceptional political and
economical actions.
Those who have been following us in the
past years know well our project’s foundation values: respect for the
environment, for the human kind and for the relationship between mankind and
environment. These values are key to have a livable world for us, our children
and the future generations.
We feel that we can’t comply anymore to
unsustainable practices and standards just because “that’s how things have
gone” until now. There is no more time for pure facade actions: we need
strong operations and focused cooperation of politics with the production
system.
We feel that we can’t accept anymore an
economical system driven by growth and profit for itself, leaving behind, or
even totally ignoring, the consequences of its decisions upon Earth
environmental conditions.
We want economical activities to be
developed in an innovative way, with no further disposal of plastics in the
sea, waste on the ground and CO2 and greenhouse gases in the air.
A commitment is required by all citizens,
with no exception, to accept the change in the everyday life and to measure
wealth with criteria of sustainability and protection of natural resources.
In this sense, the conversion of fossil
fuel propelled vehicles into full performance electric vehicles is one of the
resolutive solutions, surely effective in facilitating the transition towards a
no-emissions mobility and useful at the same time in setting to zero the impact
of vehicle dumping.
Take part with us this Friday 27 in this
demonstration. Share it, spread it, talk about it and, if you can, walk and
meet with us to discuss with these young people who, with better foresight than
us “adults”, are taking care of everybody’s future.
