Behind the EU’s ambitious 2040 climate targets lurks a controversial omission of agricultural emissions and a heavy reliance on unproven carbon capture and storage technologies.
Los países de Europa del Sur, como España, son muy sensibles a la sequía, una amenaza creciente con el cambio climático. Los humedales son incluso más sensibles, y una pieza clave en cuanto a biodiversidad y la vida humana. ¿Qué podemos hacer para protegerlos?
The energy crisis halts milk and cheese production in mountain areas. State incentives for “multifunctional” farms can be effective against the ups and downs of the market and consumer demands.
Agritourism is a symbol of Trentino, and it can help contrast the depopulation of mountain areas and the abandonment of agricultural activities.

A vineyard or an apple orchard are not just agroindustrial areas to exploit for food production or the livelihood and profits of farmers. They are multifunctional agroecosystems that affect the quality of life and health local citizens.
Adding more nature onto industrialized farm fields and more green areas within cemented cities can help local biodiversity. Green buffer and transition zones are a good example.
Corrupted project collaborations between environmental NGOs, governments and fossil fuel corporations and agribusiness enterprises can tamper meaningful climate policies and secure business-as-usual profits.
