Kassandra on Radio Fantastica RMB and SestaRete TV

Kassandra’s proposal for a single point of responsibility in local authorities and national governments to tackle Climate Change is generating a lot of interest.

Watch the interview with arch. Mark Cannata: https://www.facebook.com/radiofantasticaRMB/videos/3464841483748678/

Kassandra’s in the press!

Climate Change is a real and present danger. As such local, regional and national authorities must urgently be equipped with specific executive powers specifically to tackle Climate Change.

It is, literally, a matter of life and death.

Thank you Lasicilia.it for taking on board our proposal.

Merry Christmas!

Mark Cannata of Kassandra interviewed on the problem of excessive land consumption in Italy and Sicily

Land consumption is phenomenon associated with the loss of a fundamental environmental resource, due to the occupation of originally agricultural, natural or semi-natural surfaces.

This phenomenon therefore refers to an increase in the artificial cover of land, mainly due to the construction of new buildings and infrastructure and the expansion of cities.
