Ambler Road: 211 miles across Arctic ice for crude oil and heavy metals. A new chapter in the global race for resources — and a growing challenge to sustainability.

One river, two names, a disputed destiny: the Medog dam on the Yarlung-Brahmaputra promises energy — but risks sweeping away both natural and political balance.

A Christmas sweater becomes the prompt to question the contradictions of fashion: fast fashion, low prices, waste, and alternatives that don’t always work as we believe.

Rubble, contamination, and destroyed fields: the other face of the war in Gaza is an ecological collapse far too few are talking about.

Glaciers in Ecuador are vanishing fast, threatening water, ecosystems, and cultures. A 2025 conference in Quito aims to raise global awareness and inspire collective climate action.

Summer sparks the desire to escape, but mass tourism leaves deep marks. In the mountains — like elsewhere — we need a new kind of travel: more respectful, more conscious, and fairer for all.

Permafrost plays a crucial role in the climate crisis. Its thawing threatens the stability of alpine slopes and releases greenhouse gases in the Arctic, with consequences that remain difficult to predict.

Chimborazo is the highest point from Earth's center, making it the closest to the Sun. Everest is taller from sea level, but Chimborazo’s position near the equator gives it the greatest peak distance from Earth's core.

Italy's cities face high pollution levels, exceeding safety limits. Key solutions involve traffic management, sustainable mobility, and energy efficiency to improve air quality and protect public health.

Greenland’s vast resources and strategic location in the Arctic are crucial for the green transition and new trade routes. In the era of global warming, they have never mattered so much.

The Galapagos Islands, with their unique landscapes and biodiversity, host the world's first sustainable airport built from recycled materials and powered by renewable energy, blending sustainability with natural beauty.

As summer brings intense heat, air conditioning is vital but contributes to global warming due to high energy use and harmful refrigerants. Innovation in cooling technology is essential to break this cycle.

Can cars and pedestrians coexist in large cities? The number of cars is growing, and Italian mobility is unsustainable. Will the bicycle be the ideal way to get around metropolises?

Hello ChatGPT, can you write an essay of 500 words about the environmental impact of AI, by dividing it into an introduction, a main body and a conclusion?

A Deposit Return System for single-use plastic can save us from a derailing waste management. "A Buon Rendere – molto più di un vuoto" tries to create such a system in Italy, to move towards a circular economy.

2011: an earthquake and a tsunami provoked a nuclear accident in Japan. To cool down the reactor was used seawater. 2023: that seawater is now coming back to the ocean. Is it safe for humans, flora and fauna?

Desalination by reverse osmosis is the most common method of obtaining potable water from the sea. Already widely used in the Middle East, the Pacific Countries, America and even Europe, it ensures water security in many countries. However, it is too early to call this method "what will save us from global water shortage" because it is still too energy inefficient.

The severe winter drought left most of Italy with critically low levels of water. Yet, for most Italians droughts are still seen as a temporary problem.

Clashing with art is the new controversial form of environmentalism.

Some innovations from Australia and Italy can offer a way to handle the tons of photovoltaic panels in use right now before they become waste.

In the Anthropocene, natural and human-induced extreme events are hitting the world more frequently than in the past. How can we handle them?”

By 2050 there will probably be 10 billion people living on Earth. Without any development plan focused on energy and natural resources regeneration, aren’t we too many?

With the climate crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine the risk of a global food crisis has become very real.

The environment is the silent casualty of war. What are the effects of the war in Ukraine on the environment?

Renewables are not yet enough to help the EU reach total energy independence. In January, the Parliament decided to bet on nuclear power. How green is this bet?

To drop coal Europe needs new ways to generate green energy. Is labelling nuclear and natural gas as green energy a greenwashing or sustainable strategy?

Looking back at last summer’s dramatic floods in Central Europe, it is clear that natural disasters linked to the climate crisis are no longer events of only Mediterranean regions.
