It's always time to... consume organic and local!!

But look what they have managed to do in Italy and in our regions with European funds on rural development plans for the agro-environment!?!
TO INCREASE THE USE OF PESTICIDES!!!! (Oops! Sorry... they're called 'AGROCHEMICALS', otherwise Colretti gets up and goes). LET'S SAY THAT THE OPPOSITE WOULD REASONABLY BE EXPECTED.
And, let's remember it for good memory, funds for agriculture are the highest item of expenditure in the European Community, enormous amounts that all come from the pockets of taxpayers, that is, those who must live with, so to speak, with increasingly serious levels of water, air and land pollution, especially in Italy. And let's also remember that the highest contribution to environmental degradation in this country is in any case provided by conventional agriculture.
In fact, in recent times we have received data and considerations that we wanted to share with our readers:
from data on surface and deep water pollution, from ISPRA (more information at this link)
to the true nature of the Italian PAN — National Action Plan on the sustainable use of pesticides ( read the press release of the Table of Environmental Associations) on the destruction of olive groves in Salento, in which we want to force organic farms to use chemistry, to combat the drying up of olive trees, caused by the
same chemistry!! (go to more detail!)
up to the appeal of the Association of Physicians for the Environment, in which there is concern about the frequent granting of exceptions to the use of substances banned in agriculture (go to the link)
In short, it is always time to refuse to drink a Prosecco that is not organic (see health data, especially for children, in Alta Marca); to eat an apple from Val di Non that is not organic (see how above); to begin to denounce the ineptitude, if not the complicity, of the political decision maker on these issues... And to get involved personally and on a daily basis, consuming organic and local!
