Imparare dagli altri, imparare dalla natura. Il primo Biophilia Camp. La biofilia è stata al centro della prima edizione del Biophilia Camp organizzato da Living Future Europe, un’immersione nella natura dell’Alto Adige in Alta Val di Non, lo scorso autunno, per apprendere e applicare i principi della progettazione biofilica, in un'esperienza che ha unito biologia … Continue reading La società biofilica
We are at the end of a year extremely complicated, we know it. Energy crisis, economic crisis, an ongoing pandemic, an environmental emergency that we are unable to deal with seriously, and of course the infamous Russian invasion of Ukraine. All our cornerstones are now shaky: peace, welfare, health, democracy, progress. We have done nothing … Continue reading The roadmap is you
(And why - spoiler - in the end it is better to participate) The new COP27 that began yesterday and until November 18 in Sharm-el-Sheikh, Egypt does not start with great optimism. The disappointing results of COP26 in Glasgow, the global energy crisis triggered by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, with many countries in scattered … Continue reading To go or not to go? The question mark on the climate conference.
When we founded Living Future Europe almost three years ago, we declared since from our statute what was our mission - to make the world work for 100% of humanity, in the shortest possible time, through spontaneous cooperation without ecological offense or disadvantage of anyone, catalysing the transformation toward communities that are socially just, culturally … Continue reading Changing the built environment paradigm.

This technique involves repairing the object (for example, a broken vase in … Continue reading Tsundoku

Mi capita spesso di pensare che l’isola possa davvero rappresentare su piccola scala la nostra intera biosfera, il paradigma di come la sostenibilità potrebbe essere garantita a livello planetario. L’isola come una sorta di sistema chiuso … Continue reading Sale e ricci di mare
Ho usato queste immagini della Marmolada (quella sopra è per gentile concessione di Franco Secchieri, 2019) all’inizio delle mie presentazioni fino a tre anni fa. Poi ho smesso, mi sembrava che la gente si annoiasse o forse non ci faceva caso più di tanto. Così sostituivo l’inizio con qualcosa del tipo "non c’è bisogno che … Continue reading Marmolada
Just back from Klimahouse, the most important green building exhibition and congress in Italy (the eighteenth edition) for the first time in person after 2020, with a mixture of uncertainty and amazement about being able to see each other, meet, and design together again. We left the screens, the webinars, the calls. It is really … Continue reading Change is about communicating it.
I suppose many have read that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has just published their Sixth Assessment Report, Climate Change 2021: The Physical Science Basis and that very few have actually read it (it’s almost 4,000 pages) or perhaps have read the 42-page summary. For those who haven't, here are two well done … Continue reading The time for choices
