00:00COP16, an agreement reached in Rome on biodiversity, environmental concerns and climate change in mind.
00:24The additional session of the UN Conference on Biodiversity, which took place in Rome in the past few days, reached the agreement at COP16bis.
00:33At the FAO, after it was suspended in Cali, Colombia, in 2024, the governments have agreed on a strategy to increase the funds needed to protect biodiversity and achieve the goals of the Global Framework for the Biodiversity of Conming Montroll,
00:47adopted at COP15 in 2022, which is committed, among other things, to protect at least 30% of nature by 2030.
00:56In particular, the parties of the Convention on Biological Diversity have agreed on a path to follow to mobilize resources in order to fill the global financial gap for biodiversity
01:06and reach at least $200 billion a year by 2030, of which $20 billion a year in international flows by 2025, which will rise to $30 billion by 2030.
01:18For the WWF, this is a fundamental agreement on finance for biodiversity, even if the actual funds remain insufficient.
01:26Now, on behalf of Greenpeace, it is essential that countries in the north of the world respect their commitments and transform the decisions of these days into concrete funding.
01:34An agreement in the light of day, which will have to follow concrete actions, is observed by the Environment, which, on the eve of the Summit, published the Wildlife Report on Risk in Italy.
01:45According to the report, today there are 58 natural ecosystems at risk for a national surface, equal to 19.6%, which corresponds to almost half of that covered by natural and semi-natural ecosystems in Italy.
01:58Climate change is at the top of Italian concerns, following air pollution, rising to hydrogeological depletion after the consequences of last year's extreme events.
02:10The report on Italian environmental concerns, with a focus also on eco-sustainable behaviors, was presented at the Institute for National Statistics in 2024.
02:19Climate change is the problem on an environmental level that concerns citizens over the age of 14, confirming a decade-old climate.
02:29Almost 6 out of 10 people, 58.1%, show this concern, a stable figure compared to 2023.
02:36They follow the problems related to air pollution, reported by 51.9% of the population, an increase of two percentage points compared to the previous year.
02:44Less frequent are concerns about waste and waste production, at 38.1%, water pollution at 37.9% and the greenhouse effect and the 32.6% ozone hole, stable compared to previous years.
03:01Other aspects concern less than 3 out of 10 people.
03:04At the end of the report, there are concerns about electromagnetic pollution, the damage to the landscape and the consequences of noise on health.
03:11The attention to hydrogeological depletion, although out of interest since 1998 when it was 34.3%, records an increase of two percentage points in 2024, 28.5% against 26.5% in 2023, after an increase of more than four percentage points between 2023 and 2022,
03:32probable consequence of extreme events that hit the peninsula also in 2024.
03:38ISTAT then analyzes eco-compatible behaviors and lifestyle and consumption.
03:43The attention is high and although there is a slight decline compared to the previous year, the share of those who make a virtuous use and without energy waste is equal to 71.4%,
03:52while 68.8% adopts an analogous behavior compared to the use of water, stable around 50% and the share of those who usually adopt non-noisy driving behaviors to limit acoustic pollution.
04:06Attention to the issues of environmental sustainability also by 36.4% of the population who reads the labels of the ingredients and 23.5% who buys products at zero kilometers.
