Friends, A new article, "Is Italy’s new vision for environmental protection a real commitment to carbon neutrality?" has been uploaded to the Radical Ecological Democracy website: https://radicalecologicaldemocracy.org/is-italys-new-vision-for-environmenta... As the need to address climate change and other environmental crises becomes increasingly critical, many countries have found it necessary to amend their national constitutions to strengthen existing provisions for environmental protection, and even introduce new ones. This past February, the Chamber of Deputies of the Italian Parliament passed legislation to amend two crucial Articles in the Constitution to align the country with the rest of Western Europe’s progressive vision on climate intervention. Fausto Corvino and Mitja Stefancic discuss the promise and challenges inherent in this significant move, particularly as the energy fallout from the on-going Russia-Ukraine conflict causes complex and worrying problems for Italy.
