In each country the national parks are the symbol of conservation policies and sustainable development.
Worldwide, national parks are the most important reservoirs of biodiversity.
Worldwide, an increasing number of national parks in the growing conviction of the importance of their role in saving the life of the entire planet.
For nearly a century, men and women across Italy will seek to establish, revitalize, support national parks and other protected natural areas. This action has achieved extraordinary results:
now 23 national parks and protect the 5% of the country, has developed a movement of practitioners, scholars, managers, associations and for professionalism and collaborative spirit are a great asset for the whole country, they set new and increasing tourist flows including international methodologies have spread
original and effective training of young generations. The awards from around the world testify to the importance of the Italian system of protected areas and national parks in particular.
Despite the very limited public funding - which in recent years have progressively reduced the number has grown even as the national parks - these results it was possible to obtain thanks to the passion, selflessness, the innovative capacity of the movement.
But the current financial maneuver of the government halved at a stroke the state contribution to the collection of national parks increased from 50 million to 25 million €, ie the cost of one kilometer of the unnecessary and devastating highway romea (Mestre-Orte ) currently under review by the Commission GO!
addition, the planned cut in funding to the regions will eventually weigh heavily on all the protected areas and in particular on regional parks. So
year international biodiversity, while the Minister of Environment officially emphasizes the vital role that parks play in protecting biodiversity, the Government, of which the minister belongs, paralyzes them, even strangling them: with a budget of just ordinary average one million euro to head the national parks can not meet the mandatory costs, even those on staff, and they will be excluded from access to additional resources and particular funds.
The will seems to eliminate those who strenuously defends and supports the nature and the land.
The measure is even more serious because it assumes a dimension that is not only about our country: the conservation of nature and the landscape is perceived as a universal value, protection of biodiversity does not stop at national borders.
We ,
that for years we are committed to fronte dei parchi,
che operiamo quotidianamente nella gestione di essi,
che amiamo i parchi e ne siamo fruitori,
denunciamo la drammatica situazione in cui i parchi nazionali italiani vengono ridotti,
ci impegniamo a rappresentare questa situazione in tutte le sedi opportune, nazionali e internazionali,
esigiamo che i parchi in Italia continuino a vivere, a rafforzarsi, a svolgere la propria insostituibile e splendida missione nell’interesse di tutti e soprattutto delle generazioni future.
