Online discussion
Description

<p>The day before the festival, Connect4Climate organized a&nbsp;<a href="http://connect4climate.org/learn/article/innovative-solutions-to-waste-…; target="_blank">live web discussion</a>&nbsp;on waste management issues on&nbsp;<a href="http://www.theguardian.com/global-development-professionals-network/glo…; target="_blank">The Guardian&rsquo;s Global Development Professionals Network</a>. The two-hour Q&amp;A session featured a panel of 10 experts, including John Morton, Senior Urban Environment Specialist at the World Bank, and Delphine Arri, Environment Specialist at the International Finance Corporation.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>The online discussion drew a significant audience, with members posting 178 comments on a variety of solutions to waste. John Morton recognized the importance of monetary incentives to motivate people to improve recycling. David Jones from the Plastic Oceans Foundation added two great examples:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>&ldquo;In Dahab in the Sinai, no tin is on the ground because the locals understand their value and recycle them&hellip; In&nbsp;<a href="http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2011/mar/18/recycling-waste&quot; target="_blank">Germany</a>, every PET bottle is worth 40 cents for recycling.&rdquo;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>David Jones also raised the point that plastic production accounts for 88% of the world&rsquo;s oil reserves, and about 150 million tonnes of plastic waste is thrown away annually after just one use. In his opinion, to tackle waste effectively our throwaway lifestyle would have to change. John Morton highlighted effective examples for reducing consumption, including a&nbsp;<a href="http://www.treehugger.com/corporate-responsibility/ban-against-plastic-…; target="_blank">plastic bag ban</a>&nbsp;in Latin America, or the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/12/21/polystyrene-foam-b…; target="_blank">Styrofoam ban</a>&nbsp;in the U.S.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Highlights from the online discussion were used to fuel panel discussions at Cittadinanza in Festa. The festival&rsquo;s core theme, knocking out waste, was used as a thread to explore a variety of sustainability challenges.<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:&quot;Helvetica&quot;,sans-serif;color:#787878"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Food waste
Description

<p>A panel discussion on May 2nd, highlighted that the average Italian throws away 76 kg of edible food each year, 42% of it at home. At the same time, food production is being constrained by rapid urbanization: over the past 3 years 720 km&sup2; of Italian land has been paved over, equivalent to the surface area of Milan, Bologna, Florence, Naples and Palermo combined. The social cost of the carbon dioxide emissions generated by this construction has been estimated at 130 million Euros, and it was estimated to have cost the Italian economy 90 million Euros in imported food that could no longer be grown locally.</p>

<p>On the food waste panel Michele Bruni of Enterprise Projects Ventures, stressed the need for technology to overcome shrinking agricultural land. Beatrice Costa of Action Aid Italia highlighted the results achieved through pilot programs in schools, which teach youth to not to waste food. The Italian Minister of Health, Beatrice Lorenzin, emphasized the need to find uses for food that is still healthy but no longer meets retail standards.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Riccardo Valentini, a board member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, highlighted the challenge of feeding 7 billion people, the current global population. He advocated including consumers in creating sustainable solutions<span style="font-family:&quot;Helvetica&quot;,sans-serif;

Environmental Waste
Description

<p>A May 3rd panel discussion focused on Environmental Waste. Marco Frey, President of Cittandinzattiva opened the panel and emphasized the need for citizens to own the waste challenge, as businesses are responding to changing consumer demands.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Every day, the world&rsquo;s population generates enough waste to fill over fourteen large soccer stadiums from top to bottom,&nbsp;<a href="http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2012/03/16537275/waste-global…; target="_blank">more than 3.5 million tonnes</a>. Walid Norris from Connect4Climate highlighted that if waste management trends continue, landfilled food waste is predicted to increase world methane emissions from&nbsp;<a href="http://www.waste-management-world.com/articles/print/volume-11/issue-2/…; target="_blank">31 million to 43 million tonnes</a>, a significant jump for the potent greenhouse gas.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Specific solutions discussed included innovation in consumer products, citing companies like Fater achieving zero waste in their production process and designing fully recyclable products. Similarly Giorgio Arienti highlighted that citizens can now take simple steps to recycle almost every electronic product they buy.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p><strong>&ldquo;Every day in Africa, we are facing climate change consequences,&rdquo;</strong>&nbsp;Rokia Traoré told Connect4Climate.&nbsp;<strong>&ldquo;We have to make people aware that humans are simply one of the elements of nature. We have to be able to think not just about now, but tomorrow. What are our responsibilities concerning our children and their world? We are the ones responsible for that.&rdquo;</strong></p>

<p>Veillon added:&nbsp;<strong>&ldquo;To have a sustainable approach in production is also the right economic approach&rdquo;.</strong></p>
