Stumble this article in my opinion really interesting food for thought.
Written in the International Herald Tribune (USA) and translated and published on the site, in my wonderful, "from Italy ' abroad ". On the website there is a press release, up to date, newspapers from around the world who speak of Italy. Every now and then is good to see things from a different point of view.
In any case, to return to the topic of the post, designing nature is right or not? Do not sin maybe presumption in claiming to want to design what we in reality has 'designed' us? Alan Berger of MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) says: "The difference that lies between me and the WWF is that when I look at this site, I never think to bring him back in time. The solution should be as artificial as the place. We are trying to invent an ecosystem in a landscape entirely built and polluted. ". He says, referring to the province of Latina, the province held by huge dry pumps built by Mussolini and always kept in stock. Thanks to them the Pontine Marshes were drained and the city of Latin way of life. And 'it true then that's where there is very little natural promotion is legitimate, even noble causes, such as creating new habitat? Maybe it's just that, but in this case, the danger we run is to make a simple change of perspective. If you enlarge the horizons with which you look at things one wonders: why make so much effort to wrest the land to water to reduce it then in that state?
The straw fire to burn out and eventually left the ashes.
