  • INDICATORS for WASTE PREVENTION and MANAGEMENT Measuring Circularity
    INDICATORS FOR WASTE PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT Measuring circularity 4/3/2019 Version 1.0 WP 2 Dissemination level Public Deliverable lead University of Coimbra Authors Joana Bastos, Rita Garcia and Fausto Freire (UC) Reviewers Luís Dias (UC), Leonardo Rosado (Chalmers) This report presents a set of indicators on circular economy, waste prevention and management, and guidance on their application. The indicators provide means to assess the performance of an urban area (e.g., municipality) and monitor progress over time; to measure the effectiveness of strategic planning (e.g., providing insight on the efficiency of implemented strategies and policies); to support decision-making (e.g., on priorities Abstract and targets for developing strategies and policies); and to compare to other urban areas (e.g., benchmark). The work was developed within Task T2.3 of the UrbanWINS project “Definition of a set of key indicators for urban metabolism based on MFA and LCA”, and will be reported in Deliverable D2.3 “Urban Metabolism case studies. Reports for each of the 8 cities that will be subject to detailed study with quantification and analysis of their Urban Metabolism”.

  • GUADAGNOLO Il Borgo Di Guadagnolo È Una Frazione Del Comune Di Capranica Prenestina
    INFORMAZIONI SU GUADAGNOLO Il borgo di Guadagnolo è una frazione del Comune di Capranica Prenestina. È il centro abitato più alto della Provincia di Roma ed è posto al limite occidentale dei monti Prenestini cHe si trovano quasi al centro del Lazio, a circa 20 cHilometri a Est di Roma. Da qui si gode una vista sublime sulle valli dell’Aniene e del Sacco, verso i monti Simbruini, Ernici e Lepini. La montagna è caratterizzata da varietà botaniche così uniche da essere inserite nella carta regionale del Lazio fra gli ecosistemi da salvaguardare. La sua storia è strettamente collegata con il Santuario della Mentorella, situato su una rupe a picco sulla valle del Giovenzano, che risale al IV sec. d.C., che è ritenuto il più antico Santuario mariano d'Italia e forse d'Europa, meta abituale di fedeli che salgono a deporre le loro preghiere ai piedi della Vergine, oltre che a S. EustacHio (un martire locale) e San Benedetto. Il villaggio si dice nato all'epoca delle incursioni barbaricHe, quando i romani, fuggiascHi, si sarebbero stanziati nei pressi di un antichissimo fortilizio, del quale restano solo i ruderi di una torre precedente il V secolo. Secondo altri il nucleo originario sarebbe stato costruito dai contadini che lavoravano le terre di appartenenza dei Monaci del Santuario, come avvenne negli antichissimi Monasteri di Cassino, di Subiaco e vari altri luoghi. Secondo lo studioso Padre Atanasio Kircher, un insigne monaco del XVII sec., il nome Guadagnolo deriverebbe dai piccoli guadagni cHe locandieri e osti ricavavano dai pellegrini cHe si recavano a visitare il Santuario.

  • The Impractical Supremacy of Local Identity on the Worthless Soils of Mappano Paolo Pileri1 and Riccardo Scalenghe2*
    Pileri and Scalenghe City Territ Archit (2016) 3:5 DOI 10.1186/s40410-016-0035-z CASE STUDY Open Access The impractical supremacy of local identity on the worthless soils of Mappano Paolo Pileri1 and Riccardo Scalenghe2* Abstract Introduction: Soil is under pressure worldwide. In Italy, in the last two decades, land consumption has reached an average rate of 8 m2, demonstrating the failure of urban planning in controlling these phenomena. Despite the renewed recognition of the central role of soil resources, which has triggered numerous initiatives and actions, soil resources are still seen as a second-tier priority. No governance body exists to coordinate initiatives to ensure that soils are appropriately represented in decision-making processes. Global Soil Partnership draws our attention to the need for coordination to avoid fragmentation of efforts and wastage of resources. Both at a global and at a local level, the area of fertile soils is limited and is increasingly under pressure by competing land uses for settlement, infrastructure, raw materials extraction, agriculture, and forestry. Discussion and Evaluation: Here, we show that an administrative event, such as the creation of a new small municipality, can take place without any consideration of land and soil risks. This is particularly problematic in the Italian context as recent studies demonstrate that increasing local power in land use decisions coupled with weak control by the central administration and the high fragmentation and small dimension of municipalities has boosted land consumption. The fragmentation of municipalities has been detrimental to land conservation. Case description: The case study of Mappano (in the northwestern Italian region of Piedmont on the periphery of the regional capital city of Turin) is emblematic to demonstrate the role played by the supremacy of local identity or local interests despite the acknowledged importance of the key role played by soil everywhere.

He was, so the warrant read, subject to deportation under the "Act of October 16 , 1 9 1 8 , as amended, for the reason that you have been prior to entry a member of the following class: an alien who is a member of an organi­ zation which was the direct predecessor of the Communist Party of the United States, to wit The Communist Party of America."^ A hearing, originally arranged for April 7» 1953» but delayed until July 27 because of Corey's poor health, was held; but a ruling was not handed down at that time. The Special Inquiry Officer in charge of the case adjourned the hearing pending the receipt of a full report of Corey's activities o during the previous ten years. [The testimony during the hearing had focused primarily on Corey's early writings and political activities.] The hearing was not reconvened, and the question of the defendant's guilt or innocence, as charged, was never formally settled.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTEXT IN WHICH THE EXPERIENCE OCCURRED Accessibility, in the sense of the concrete and effective possibility of accessing the workplace, social services, health centers, educational spaces, but also cultural and recreational facilities is a fundamental component in the fight against social exclusion, a discriminating factor in the promotion of social well-being and quality of life. In this context, public and private transports can present high barriers to entry: timetables, routes and costs may preclude their use, especially among the most vulnerable and less autonomous sectors of the population. The City Council of San Casciano - which has been suffering in recent years from repeated cuts at the central and regional level to the financial resources needed to provide adequate public transportation - decided to share with its citizens not only the investment choices in new services but also -to actively involve the local community and key stakeholders in the participatory design of an innovative integrated mobility network.

Il romanticismo, nella sua potente e talora ingenua rievocazione delle leggende, dei costumi, della vita medioevale fu costretto a lumeggiare quella ch'era l'anima di quell'età lontana, concludendo ad una rivalutazione del Cattolicesimo. Questo movimento romantico inglese che in W. Scott ebbe il suo più popolare divulgatore, passò coscientemente all'apologia del cattolicesimo in un discepolo dello Scott, il Digby entrato nella Chiesa cattolica nel 1825. Entusiasta dell'ideale cavalleresco, cercò di ravvivarlo, di farlo riallignare in quel secolo XIX che pur doveva vedere la grande apparente vittoria della quantità sulla qualità, della forza bruta costituita dalla macchina o dal numero su le tradizioni più belle e più profonde, sui sentimenti più gentili e umani. È da questo romantico cattolico che trasse John Ruskin, per sua stessa confessione, quel fine amore della nobiltà, quel senso delicato delle cose belle fuso con la generosa brama di ceder la stessa vita sociale sistemata sulla base della giustizia e della carità, con quello stesso senso della proporzione che lo rendeva tanto fine critico d'arte, ch'è suo caratteristico.
