The report on the state of health of the Environment arrives at the Parliament
On 6 July, the long-awaited Report on the state of health of the Environment of our Country was transmitted to Parliament. The document takes place the previous report dating back to 8 years earlier, dated 2008.
The document has been realized embracing the guidelines of the DPSIR model ( Driving forces, Pressures, State, Impacts, Responses ): this descriptive model aims to identify the sequences of cause- effect of the interactions between the economic, political and social systems with the environmental components in order to provide a broader and more complete vision aimed at the development of environmental protection policies.
The report on the state of health of the environment is a useful update on the main environmental indicators of our country but also a useful tool for those who want to deepen scientifically the situation of the Italian environment.
A job that allows you to have a 360 ° view of our territory and its biodiversity, its strengths and its weaknesses. Below we mention the most significant. Among the positive points, Italy is, for example, among the countries with the highest energy efficiency , with technologies and performances that place us at the forefront of the world. Compared to the critical issues, however, Italy is still lagging behind the waste, purification and air quality sectors in the cities.
The 2016 Report on the State of the Environment was carried out under the direction of the Ministry of the Environment and of the protection of the territory and the sea. The project and editorial and scientific coordination have been curated by representatives of ISPRA in collaboration with a committee of academic experts from the University of Rome “Tor Vergata”, National Institute of Astrophysics, Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change, University of the Studies of Naples Federico II.
Other bodies involved were the National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development – ENEA, Italian Space Agency – ASI, National Association of Italian Municipalities – ANCI, National Association for Irrigation Reclamation and Land Improvement.

From the roof to the road, electricity for transport is finally clean
How many Kilometers can you take if you take the charge from the roof of your house? As long as the battery lasts, we answer!
From today it seems that everything is possible: even recharge your electric car from the energy accumulated from the roof of your own home! And all thanks to the Tegosolar photovoltaic system, the Italian patent of Canadian tile . It happens in Vittorio Veneto, where the first electric car charging station was installed at the headquarters of Iwis , the European holding company for buildings and major works in Via dell’Industria.
In reality it is the fifteenth charging station installed in the province of Treviso, but as you may have guessed, in this case everything is different: Iwis wanted to make available to its employees, collaborators and guests, free, a ‘ clean and pure energy , obtained with the innovative Tegosolar method, a photovoltaic system that uses the triple-junction amorphous thin film silicon technology to produce electricity from renewable sources, with which the production site of Vittorio Veneto and part of the Group’s Italian plants.
This is a small but significant step , which is mainly used to stimulate the culture of sustainability and attention to the environment, as announced by Alessandro Mazzer, Marketing Manager of the Iwis group, who in Tegola Canadese, among others also Tema, Fi-Ve and Geobitec, which deal with energy efficiency for residential, commercial and industrial buildings, both public and private.
Companies with a high level of innovation are always very self-deprecating, and for this reason, once they started to equip the fleet of electric cars, the traditional cars were marked with a sad smiley, because unlike electric ones, they will not be able to quench their thirst with clean energy!
