What is the link between pollution and the Covid-19 pandemic? What are the lessons that we can learn to implement more sustainable policies? Since January, the World has been experiencing a tragic pandemic causing several deaths, albeit with a different impact across regions.
There are a number of plausible explanations to this variation: pre-existing health conditions such as age and the presence of other diseases, policy interventions like lockdown measures, and demographic characteristics like population density. In addition to these factors, the environment seems to play a fundamental role in the spreading of the virus. In Italy, for example, the most polluted regions are also those more affected in terms of number of Covid-19 cases and deaths, while municipalities located in protected areas have been less affected. At the same time, in the last few months we have been experiencing alternative life-styles, like remote working and electric transports, that also contribute to reduce pollution levels worldwide. In this webinar we will review what the scientific debate suggests so far about the link between the coronavirus outbreak and the environment, explore more in details the Italian case, and draw some policy implications that simultaneously promote the environment, health, and economic and social wellbeing of local communities.

“Let’s not simply limit ourselves to lamenting the premature death of Olivetti and to think that his business model of creating community-factories has died with him, let’s instead go out and search for the many “Olivettis” in the world today, who each day, painstakingly, continue to translate that dream into reality”

Telling about the Spiga Dorata means telling the story of a great desire to spend money on the poorest turned into a wonderful entrepreneurial folly. A project that over time has generated so much and reached so many important numbers, standing up to the challenge of the obstacles and threats of a place as hostile as the peripheral metropolitan areas in Brazil, also succeeding in holding back violence with a welcoming openness to the other and a deep sense of service.
