Luca Mercalli will be the protagonist on Friday, May 8th at 8:45 p.m. at the Congress Palace in Sirmione to present his latest book that explores the relationship between humans, the environment, and sustainable development. During the interview with the Giornale di Brescia, Mercalli addresses crucial themes such as drought, tourism, and infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The climatologist recalls the millennia-old history of Lake Garda and emphasizes how the Italian climate has always undergone changes over time, but today’s changes are accelerated by human intervention as well as natural factors. Mercalli highlights how events like the 2022 drought are partly caused by global warming, which makes climatic phenomena more extreme.<\/p>\n

Tourism, if managed sustainably, can help mitigate negative effects on the climate. Mercalli stresses the importance of local tourism that reduces emissions from long-distance air travel, encouraging the use of public and sustainable transport. In this sense, the book presentation is an opportunity to reflect on current environmental challenges and the necessary actions to address them.<\/p>\n
