Not only in Sardinia, the great works of the so-called "green energy" have arrived throughout Italy, starting from the south and reaching the center.This is the case of Tuscany, where for a year now citizens, committees and environmental groups have been fighting to preserve the the Mugello area is already at risk.The project for the Tuscany Region is always the same:planting towers 170 meters high, «as high as two Giotto bell towers one on top of the other», in natural areas close to the mountain, close to protected reserves, with reinforced concrete bases the size of half a football field. Land consumption, serious impact on the environment, hydrogeological instability, these are some of the risks faced by Mugello, reported by a group of groups in one open letter against wind speculation.Among these, the Committee for the protection of the Mugello ridges, one of the associations active in defense of the territory, which explained to The Independent the situation...
«Green Umbria is under attack».Thus Roberto Malini, co-president of the international human rights organization EveryOne Group, supported by the environmentalist association Italia Nostra, launches his appeal to the Government and local institutions to curb the wind speculation that is about to hit the Region.Specifically, there are six projects launched in Umbria, which include the installation of 60 wind turbines in naturalistic areas «characterized by delicate natural environments and enchanting landscapes».The blades that will be used are the same ones featured in the similar projects based in Sardinia and Tuscany The Independent he has already spoken several times:structures of approximately 200 meters with reinforced concrete bases «as large as half a football field», which would «a devastating impact on territories characterized by important avifaunal qualities". The project to build wind farms in Umbria involves construction, as re...
In the global energy mix, renewable energy sources have gone from 19% in 2000 to over 30% in 2023, thanks to the increase in solar and wind energy, going from 0.2% in 2000 to 13.4% in 2023 .Thus, last year, the carbon intensity of global electricity generation reached a new historic low, 12% lower than the peak in 2007.The fifth Global Electricity Review by the Ember energy expert group was responsible for reporting these data.The document covers electricity data from 215 countries, as well as the latest 2023 data for 80 countries accounting for 92% of global electricity demand.For the first time - the report certified - the global energy system was able to count on almost a third of electricity generated from clean sources. Inside the relationship we read that “the renewable energy revolution, led by solar and wind, is breaking all records and favoring increasingly cleaner electricity production” and that “the world is now at an inflection point where solar and wind...
