passed the most acute phase of the emergency that followed the disastrous flood of Christmas, while efforts to get answers necessary for citizens, businesses and local authorities, it is urgent to direct attention to the issues of proper governance of land use and soil conservation, mitigation of landslide risk. The
prevention policy is the main priority and as such should be taken at all levels. We need to get out of that which we can define the "culture of emergency" that haunts and at the same time, asphyxia system of government, by the State up to the municipalities, and make central planning of prevention and with it a different idea of territorial government. Set an organic management and development of land in all its aspects, urban planning, environmental, social and even the real challenge is the greatest work of general interest. Indeed, recognizing the urgency of a general plan of prevention and protection from the consequences dell'endemica fragility of the territory, may arise among other things, a great benefit from the economic and employment growth (but certainly I think more highly comparable with the economic values \u200b\u200bgenerated by projects nefarious "plans houses" or indiscriminate activities related to real estate speculation), thus reconciling environment and work and showing what it might mean in practice the choice of "green economy " as an alternative model of development and not merely as a slogan from the election program.
Land management, planning and activities are concrete targets for prevention, accessible and ever more necessary in the interests of all. Otherwise, we will always encounter more disasters and tragedies. What are the main principles on which it is urgent to move? The answers are known, though often contrasted:
• A continuous and adequate investment in soil conservation from the financing of plans for the safety of our rivers (and the Finance Act 2010 goes in the opposite direction!)
· Stop the estimated consumption of land for new buildings, not only in areas at risk (the demographics and size of building space not used to show that there is not necessity);
· Return to the land and the nature of space need for water courses and areas of flooding, not excluding even the relocation of settlements at risk. (It may be more cost-shift settlements rather than building defenses and pay damages!)
· Maintaining and managing the agricultural and forestry areas, the network of drainage water, defending the role and functions of agriculture which key garrison. It 'just the place maintenance agro-forestry the primary interest to treat. To safeguard the farmers means taking care of all of our main interests: food, health, homeland defense.
on this challenging but can not be postponed challenge are called to confront the institutions of government land and in so doing, we support a strong position to claim a legitimate battle for the attention and resources from the national level.
Care for the environment and safety of the territories, through a strict limit on the consumption of land and an impressive work of maintaining the territory, have the answers you need. Where they can also generate important effects on the front of support for our economies.
should not be very difficult to understand the scope of what is at stake ...
