Who is looking for green ideas for the restart
Three days in Milan to find green ideas for the restart of the planet: from 25 to 27 September in Milan is held "The green and the blue festival – Good ideas for the future of the planet"
It's easy to be political in the wrong way. This is the concept that the philosopher Luciano Floridi supports in his book “Il verde e il blu. Naive ideas to improve politics ". Nothing could be truer, where all politics speaks of an energy transition, of an epochal transition to a new era of development, of sustainable life models.
In reality we are still looking for good ideas for the future of the planet and an opportunity to find them could be the event "The green and the blue festival – Good ideas for the future of the planet", scheduled in Milan from 25 to 27 September at BAM Library of Trees. Floridi's book is a leitmotiv to start again in green and blue in all directions. The Beulcke + Partners agency then, in addition to Floridi himself, called Alessandro Barbero, Marco Bentivogli, Stefano Boeri, Roberto Cingolani, Enrico Letta, Paolo Gentiloni, Giorgio Gori, Stefano Mancuso, Giovanna Melandri and many others to discuss it.
A festival of proposals now in its twelfth edition which in 2020 raises its gaze on climate change, circular economy, digital revolution, new industrial and financial models, fashion, food and sustainable mobility. Everything that makes opinion between young and old often disoriented.
In Italy we are in the weeks of the post Covid restart with a lot of talk about European money to be directed towards a new social organization. But it is something that will happen tomorrow, while the anxieties are of today and take our life. We are thinking of a confident restart, the organizers said, but the signs of politics are weak. Stranded in the mediations, in the disputes over who and how to spend the euro in Brussels, they do not launch reassuring messages that the country, on the other hand, wishes to hear. Green rhetoric no longer sells as well as it once did and in the Palazzo we see actions that are much duller than those coming from the industrial world that invests, designs, regenerates itself.
Between Saturday and Sunday, there will be numerous talk shows among the speakers, dialogues with two voices of interest. If Enrico Letta will discuss with Floridi a policy that takes into account not only economic parameters, but linked to well-being, Laurence Tubiana, CEO of the European Climate Foundation, and Corrado Passera will discuss the fight against climate change. Just to mention two debates among many. A range of ideas that good politics should grasp, without neglecting what will be said in other more managerial events such as the assembly of the Elettricità Futura association or in a conference of Fise Assoambiente.
What will enter the government's political agenda after the three days in Milan from next Monday, we cannot know. Politics, given the names, will be present at the Biblioteca degli Alberi and has the power to decide. Let's at least hope he does something to overturn Floridi's concept. That is, it becomes difficult to be political in the wrong way.
