How Long Until A Brazilian Grows Back

2010 years of "diversity of life" (and therefore of life itself)

Biodiversity on Earth is in serious danger: it takes 1 to 4 million years because a species can evolve into two different species, while a species will become extinct in 10,000 years (but with a decreasing trend) and the current conditions, the rate of extinction is 1000 times greater than what was there before the appearance of man on earth.
Especially in the last 100 years, the loss Biodiversity has been a progressive and dramatic increase and, at this rate, it will be extinct by 2100 from 50 to 80% of species present.
If decreases life planet proportionately one year solar date pop man "would fall" December 31 in recent minutes o'clock 23 (period from Dante today equals approximately fourth seconds of this entire year).
Yet, man is able to do so much damage to life on the planet like no other event of the first, with a dramatic acceleration in the beginning of the industrial age: excessive population growth, deforestation, intensive agriculture and fishing, especially alien, climate change, introduction into synthetic chemicals, chemical and other pollutants ...
We have a huge responsibility and therefore the inescapable duty to put a stop to the extinction of species.
From 1975 onwards, international conventions and European directives have begun to focus attention on this issue by requiring the first measures of protection: establishment of protected areas, protection of ecological corridors, planning tools, awareness campaigns, ...
The United Nations Convention on bioidversità and 1992 (Rio de Janeiro).
In 2001, the European Union was committed to halting biodiversity decline by 2010, but only in 2006 adopted an action plan to that effect, and still awareness of the problem from citizens is completely inadequate. The ignorance or indifference to this problem, still predominate.
So declared 2010 the year of biodiversity, the UN sought to lay firmly the attention of nations and men on the need to protect bio-diversity to ensure life on earth: our food supplies and thus our own lives are threatened by loss of biodiversity that we ourselves are causing .
Now we need to make a choice: to consider the biodiversity and habitat as common goods, and not as a resource to be exploited economically, capital to be tapped. The spirit of
survival as a species, and responsibility between generations, once they become aware of the dramatic situation we find ourselves, should lead us to ACT to assist the conservation of biological diversity by reconciling the economy with the protection and preservation of essential ' environment.
In Italy we would have the immediate need of a comprehensive law on biodiversity but, unfortunately, this government does not seem at all interested in this need, and indeed is working nth building amnesty, that this time, the intent of some of the senators PDL, which proposed an amendment to the Constitutional Affairs Committee that is considering the next "milleproroghe" not spare even the protected areas (including the amnesty also the damage to environmental assets and landscape), and is preparing to vote on a rule that would expand the hunting season already over five months under the infinite current law, among other changes also completely inconsistent with the European directives on the subject, including the ability to accciare protected species (wolves, bears, ...).
And, incredibly, one of the senators who proposed the amendment is called the Bears, perhaps even laughing ago (he has also made a joke Littizzetto), but instead, I feel like crying!

THE NEW CIVIL SERVICE REFORM


Some friends, and among them especially those who make union have criticized me for my intervention on Brunetta decree posted on the blog of citizens on the move (the below).
I thought it was clear my thoughts about the fact that this measure, even if contained in a framework of initiatives brunettiane very unrealistic and lacking in real punch, certainly contains some tools that can improve the functioning of the PA and which, moreover, are part of a journey that started well before 2007, when Brunette was entrusted with the Ministry of Public Administration and Innovation.
Other standards desired by Brunetta are simply absurd, or at least unnecessary, such as wanting to legislate that 25% of civil servants is praiseworthy, 50% is half of the first and the last 25% is useless (the "notorious slackers" in Ichino had already spoken). Well established without any substantive analysis that at least 750 thousand of civil servants are lazy sunk, and consequentially not decide, if it is certified, which must be dismissed Instantly (and not just economically penalized by not recognizing the incentives) is perplexing.
If we think that these same percentages are applied to office by office, without thinking that there must be some institution where no employee deserves to be punished, well, 'I think any comment inutile.Chiudo recalling that one of the first acts of the Government, of which perhaps the Minister Brunetta has the highest popularity (in fact the others want to send the mayor to do in Venice), was to remove the High Commissioner for the fight against corruption in public administration, wanted to Prodi, and that, that yes, he had started doing a great job and was worried dishonest civil servants and / or infidels, or take advantage of their position to pursue private interests.


My post on http://transizionesst.blogspot.com/
Furio Colombo on Minister Brunetta (the daily - Tuesday, December 29, 2009): " I believe that no idea of \u200b\u200bthe strange and iperesibizionista Minister Brunetta is good. His main involvement in public life is to prove to be shockingly brilliant in a world of mediocre. Maybe not wrong when he speaks of his fellow ministers and junior ministers, but the universe with which it is able to meet and to excel ends there. A typical character of the ideas of natural Brunetta is a malevolent spirit that infects those who commit the fatal mistake of pay attention. "
agree with this reporter in his opinion, adding that Brunetta has now so popular only because it was overly clever to embezzle an innovation of the PA that was started long ago by Bassanini (governments Ulivo 1996-2001), and that, after the break of the legislature 2002 - 2007 (Berlusconi) had been restarted by Nicolais (last Prodi government in the short term - 2007).
Brunetta, taking up a blockbuster introduced by Ichino (former CGIL - now in the PD), has taken all civil servants to attack indiscriminately, breaking the trade union front, alongside the destruction of public services to privatization and to offer even the newly arriving amendment of Article 1 of the Constitution: as in a cartoon by Mauro Biani (the unit), according Brunetta "Italy must be a country founded on free market competition meritocratic reformed by the love of hatred against the feel-good bums. "
clarify what, for the avoidance of doubt, however, I must also say that the recent Legislative Decree n.150/2009 (named Brunetta - but much of the text of the decree had already been prepared for the Ministry during the brief period when Minister Nicolais was) going to significantly change the previous Decree 165/2001 (Bassanini - general rules on the organization of employment by the government), that important provisions of the civil service, and many of these, should be implemented immediately even by local authorities, we are interested in a particular way. Let's see some
briefly, to get an idea of \u200b\u200bthe impact on the functioning of all public administrations, and therefore of Comuni.All 'Article 1 - paragraph 2, reads: "The provisions of this decree ensure better organization of work and respect of the areas reserved respectively to the law and collective bargaining, high quality standards and economic functions and services, encouraging the quality of work performance, selectivity and the invitation to tenders in career progression, recognition of merits and demerits , the selectivity and enhancement of skills and results for the purposes of management positions, the enhancement of the powers and responsibilities of management, increased efficiency of public work and the contrast to the low productivity and absenteeism, as well as the transparency of government even as a guarantee of legality. "
The purpose of the Law, therefore, are right: who in the PA has always pulled the cart "for the" slackers "who undoubtedly are, can not share!
The general principles are set out in Article 3 - paragraph 2: "Each government department and 'required to measure and evaluate performance with respect to the administration as a whole, the organizational units or areas in which responsibility is divided and individual employees ... "
paragraph 3:" The government adopt ways and means of communication to ensure maximum transparency of information on measurements and assessments of performance. "
paragraph 4: "The government shall adopt methods and tools to measure, evaluate and reward individual and organizational performance in a manner closely related alsoddisfacimento interests of the recipients of services and interventions."
paragraph 5: "Compliance with the provisions of this Title and 'necessary condition for the granting of awards linked to merit and performance. "
then indicate the paragraph 1 of Article 11 (Transparency): "Transparency and 'understood as full accessibility, including through the instrument of publication on institutional web sites of government, of information on every aspect of the organization, the indicators developments relating to the management and use of resources for the pursuit of official duties, of the results of measurement and evaluation by the competent bodies, in order to encourage widespread forms of monitoring compliance with the principles of sound and impartial. It is essential level of services provided by the government under Article 117, second paragraph, letter m) of the Constitution .
If this tool will be well used, will undoubtedly facilitate the "governability" of even the local authorities.
