A WWF testimonial actor for 2021

He has the voice and face of the actor Giacomo Ferrara there WWF's #CARIUMANI campaign in the fight against the climate crisis. It has started and will continue throughout 2021, a year with really important appointments: COP Giovani, G20, G7, COP26. The Covid 19 epidemic has slowed down many activities, but raising awareness of climate issues is by no means backward. Young people and almost all environmental organizations have associated the spread of the epidemic to the planet breakdowns. Hosts of scientists also lend a hand who have confirmed that 86% of the carbon released into the atmosphere is caused by the combustion processes of fossils: coal and oil, above all. Giacomo Ferrara, awarded with the Silver Ribbon and one of the protagonists of the TV series Suburra , interprets the voice of nature in the countryside. The message reminds human beings of their responsibility to save the future of the planet and its inhabitants. A sweet form of expression that will try to capture those who exclude themselves from street demonstrations or persist in unsustainable behavior. If 2020 involved artists, actors, singers in campaigns to fight against Covid 19, 2021 promises to be the year of the worldwide recovery of pro-climate kermesses. Outdoor events, exhibitions and concerts are already on the agenda for the summer months, when the spread of the epidemic should have been slowed by vaccinations. It is more urgent than ever to take concrete decisions at an institutional level, which aim to eliminate the use of fossil fuels with the definition of a new, truly ambitious target for reducing CO2 emissions by 2030, says the campaign. The WWF had asked to reduce emissions by at least 65% to be in line with the indications of the scientific community, but the EU Commission the other day decided only 55%. Although reduced compared to hopes, the tools to achieve that result are not yet clear. In any case, ecologists argue, we need to focus on the use of renewable energies as a source of 100% supply. The data is dramatic. In 2019, the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere reached 410 parts per million. The last time Earth experienced a comparable concentration of this amount of CO2 was 3-5 million years ago. But the temperature was 2-3°C warmer and the sea level was 10-20 meters higher than now. Climate change has negative effects on human health as well as on species and habitats. The alarms are real, so the Living Planet Report 2020 which measures the state of biodiversity warned against risk of extinction by the end of the century of 1/5 of wild species. Mariagrazia Midulla, Climate and Energy manager of WWF Italy says that "it is not enough to look only at technological solutions, we need a change in consumption patterns at all levels, or by maintaining the current state of things, we will not respect the objectives of the agreement of Paris in 2015”. It would be a bad political and cultural result, given that governments have means and tools at their disposal to spread knowledge of the sick state of the planet. For now, let's start following the directions of a young actor.
