Sustainable agriculture, adaptation plans and creativity are all needed to drive a high quality productive sector that considers scientific knowledge on climate change and sustainability. Italy can play an important role in a global context where, among others, food, eating habits, sustainable land use and the dialogue between science and society are crucial elements.

There is good news and bad news for Italy in the latest IPCC report on Climate Change and Land. “The bad news is that Italy is at the center of the Mediterranean region, one of the areas most affected by the significant impacts of extreme events. The good news is that our country can give the world positive signals”.

The words are of Riccardo Valentini (CMCC Foundation, Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change and Università della Tuscia), the only Italian author of the IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land, at the presentation of the report to the Italian community. Other Italian experts who participated in the presentation are Donatella Spano (CMCC and Università di Sassari) and Lucia Perugini (CMCC, division for the study of agriculture, forests and ecosystem services).

“For the first time – explained Valentini – the report refers to sustainable agriculture as a solution to climate change. In Italy we have much creativity and a high quality productive sector, with many young people. Furthermore, we can improve in terms of education on nutrition. But we must act quickly: science must have an impact on society and politics has a fundamental role in this.”

“We have what it takes both in mitigation capacity and in adaptation plans”, Donatella Spano commented. Prof. Spano has been following the definition of the Italian climate change adaptation Plan closely. “Now – she said – it is a question of finding ways to make the scientific community’s recommendations operational.”

Contents, infographics and a video of the presentation are available on the IPCC Point for Italy website.
