important consideration in Ghemme

Ciao a tutti/e,

la nostra recente assemblea è stata purtroppo teatro di un acceso scontro, relativamente alla posizione assunta da alcuni aderenti a favore di un percorso condiviso con i firmatari dell'appello “Abbiamo un sogno”.

Come moltissimi/e di voi già sapranno, la posizione del coordinamento nazionale rispetto a detto appello è stata delineata a partire da un mio comunicato/editoriale (“Cresce al speranza”) pubblicato sul sito nazionale lo scorso 13 ottobre, e più nel dettaglio dalle considerazioni espresse in coordinamento nazionale in vari appuntamenti (October and November).

" We have given a clear opinion (and now unchanged) with respect to the parties, that even with good people and" clean "in their base and in the early stages of their" hierarchy ", but now they are undemocratic oligarchies, intertwined with patronage, and very often even with the underworld and crime. We hope that the person who is born from the dream, to share this position, which is important to us than any project that may actually be said to be capable of pursuing justice and the common good. "(Monia - Press Release of 10.13.2010)

Michele Dotti, one of the earliest proponents of the appeal, personally invited me to sign it, stating my membership for the Common Good:

" I would really like that adhered too and I were on our side on this journey !

The tone of our "call" is deliberately evocative. Speaks to the heart and mind because of this we feel that we need at this time.

The contents will be defined later, in a participatory, transparent and democratic with all those who want to contribute to the creation of this new political entity. "(Michele Dotti)

national coordination emerged in the immediate need to have a precise position by "We have a dream" on their relations with political parties / members, which is one of our red lines founding, and especially in view the fact that the appeal quotes verbatim the goal of members / signatories:

" all together create a partly inspired by the common sense and based on honesty , ...."

" Polls quickly detect the enormous weight of this party, so soon, the TV will no longer ignore and so the visibility will be multiplied.

Attempts to discredit him-and there will be many-will fail miserably, because the credibility of the people who represent you that can not be removed so easily. "(From We have a dream).

For this reason I and Fernando Rossi, with long phone calls, and Massimo Soroga through correspondence via Facebook, we have demanded assurances on the issue "parties." Unfortunately I'm not perventute positive responses, because we felt that the goal is to respond to oust Berlusconi and more we are, the sooner we will succeed. With the addition of the fact that many have joined the call and will be decided by the petitioners who have relationship with the parties / members.

Compared to the question of possible collaboration with the parties, as Democrats and not being already met with all the others we can not actually express a shared location. There are different positions, all with a fund of reasonableness, which must be discussed thoroughly. (Answer written by Dotti specific question on relations with the parties)

being unable to rely on guarantees by the promoters, so we tried to understand who are the prime movers / petitioners and what were their positions, so understand PBC whether or not he could propose to the possible accession to the appeal.

I shall omit comments on the statements of Domenico Finiguerra, convinced that the dream will help to bring a little 'clean water in the quagmire of political parties (or in parties, author's note), or the presence of Flavio Lotti (yes, just what D'Alema embraced the peace march, while we were bomordando the former Yugoslavia), but I'll put a link, compared with the first signatories, as has repeatedly said Dotti, trying to convince me to sign in haste, are l ' backbone, the business card of a dream: http://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2010/11/13/la-lezione-dei-seminole-e-le-elezioni/76768/ (in fondo al post)

Ed ora voglio vedere chi ha il coraggio di dirmi che “abbiamo un sogno” è fuori da ogni legame con i partiti/schieramenti (senza contare tutti i sindaci, assessori, consiglieri che hanno in tasca una tessera di partito ed hanno sottoscritto l'appello, pur se non fra i "protagonisti iniziali" e che dovrebbero essere considerati virtuosi per il semplice fatto che lavorano maybe just fine on a couple of themes, making the remaining 98% of the points that the party asks him to do reference).

can also write an interesting phone call with Vincenzo Cennamo, who while sharing our facility, supports the need to "pirates", allying / coalescing or candidates within the traditional parties to have the guarantee to be elected and be represented. Cenname is in fact one of the most ardent supporters of the Constituent Environmentalist, that by signing the appeal Cohn Bendit "We have a Dream", has formed a strong working relationship with it.

Right on the Constituent

Environmentalist we had the "singular" desire to find the Regional Assembly of PBC in Naples, on 13 November, also Francesco Borrelli, regional secretary of the Greens. He has finally explained clearly what the Constituent Environmentalist and how will the policy. The Greens will be present in its management team to a predefined percentage of 30% and if the programmatic point of view confirmed the assumption of full draft Europe Ecologie, on the other said they have the absolute necessity of apparent ( Constituent as Environmentalist) with any coalition of parties, because for them under the Italian situation, the only way di essere eletti è quello di unirsi con qualche partito cha abbia tanti voti. Ad onor del vero non hanno detto che si alleeranno per forza con il centro sinistra, ma hanno sostenuto che cercheranno di andare con chi potrà garantirgli un migliore risultato (permettetemi un commento: forse per questo avranno tratto spunto dai Radicali, altro soggetto che partecipa e condivide la costituente ecologista...visto che già in passato hanno dichiarato pubblicamente di andare con chi gli garantiva di più).

A norma del nostro Statuto, la questione “Costituente Ecologista/Abbiamo un Sogno” è già risolta:

“ Per il Bene Comune è un'associazione policy of individual citizens and persons who may be members of other movements, associations, civic committees and local lists, united by sharing the program and ethical manifesto and who have the knowledge that the existing parties, being the main culprits, they can not address the serious issues that afflict the present and the future of our country.

For this reason you can not, at any level, any kind of political or electoral aggregation with entities that belong to the party politics, having alternated at the helm of the country, or by persons or groups that actually support it directly or indirectly, with a party card or call vote. Each action contrary to what is stated will automatically be considered a serious violation of the statute that requires the expulsion for those who have been protagonists of that transgression. This fundamental principle for PBC may be amended only by the consent of at least 2 / 3 of the members of For the Common Good. "(Article 3 of the Statute)

For this reason I invite all members who had initially called the firn" We have a Dream "and / or the Environmentalist of the Constituent Assembly (perhaps in the wake of a wave or non-emotional understanding that it was build with them a party, or rather because they had received this information from the regional coordinators who had been tempo erano circolate all'interno del coordinamento nazionale) a chiedere il ritiro della loro firma da tali documenti, onde evitare di incorrere nelle sanzioni previste dallo Statuto.

Infine, un chiarimento: la posizione di PBC rispetto al Sogno/Costituente Ecologista non è una dichiarazione di guerra, come alcuni hanno erroneamente pensato. Si tratta semplicemente dell'unica posizione possibile in coerenza con il nostro Statuto e con uno dei nostri principi fondanti: la totale estraneità alla partitocrazia quando si tratta di lavorare per la creazione di un soggetto politico per la rappresentanza dei cittadini, perchè non si risolvono i problemi con la stessa mentalità che li ha creati. Ovviamente resta l'auspicio that can come in the future a clear-cut stance on the part of Dream / Constituent Assembly, with the consequent expulsion from their draft card holders / managers / supporters of the parties, in which case, we know that we have with other key stakeholders who then but only then, begin a journey together, perhaps even within the project "Several U.S. and" to whom we have joined with conviction. In the absence of this fundamental shift, we can continue with their dialogue with the attitude that sets us apart from the individual battles that feel right, just as it did in the past at the national and / or local level with the political right and left ( eg struggles against incinerators).

In conclusion, I renew my call for all / and you're looking for you to be informed about activities and projects PBC: to participate means first of all be aware. There is a national site www.perilbenecomune.net , regional blogs (which since the last meeting are also an ideal channel, together with the regional newsletter, the Communications / proposals pre-and post-national coordination), the national newsletter, google the PBC and the Facebook.

There are no excuses, let's do it!

Environmental Coordinator Waste Piedmont

... it draws energy from matter, but the energy does not produce material ...!

press release

The Environmental Coordinator Waste Section of the Piedmont-Novara-

takes note and welcomes the decision of the Province of Vercelli to reject the proposal of the company

Alice Ambiente Srl, which would pour into the former landfill Alice Castello (Vercelli)

170,000 tons of industrial waste from the company's SISAS Pioltello (Mi-

Milan).

Pioltello of industrial waste containing carbon black with substantial traces of hydrocarbons

polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and mercury, both harmful substances. The fundamental reason

of that rejection of the Province of Vercelli is that the former landfill Alice Ca-star hotel is now closed and undergoing environmental restoration, and then is absolutely not in gra-

do to receive industrial wastes, is more toxic.

The problem of industrial waste Pioltello returns but at the same time and with near-identical features in the province of Novara, and just to Ghemme. Also the company wants to pay Alice Ambiente Srl in the former landfill Ghemme, closed for three years, some 160,000 tonnes of industrial waste Pioltello. The Mayors and Ghemme

and the neighboring municipalities of Cavaglio d 'Agogna have already expressed their opposition.

We ask that the Province of Novara, following the example of the Province of Vercelli, express refusal to officially receive payment of the waste-Piol

tello nella ex-discarica di Ghemme, anche in coerenza con la recente propria delibera di affermazione del “ principio di prossimità” nella gestione dei rifiuti. Cioè a dire che i ri-

fiuti prodotti in Lombardia dovrebbero essere smaltiti nella regione di origine.

Il Coordinamento Ambientalista Rifiuti del Piemonte esprime piena solidarietà ai cittadini

di Ghemme e di Cavaglio, che lottano per salvaguardare la propria salute, l'economia agri-

la della zona e il paesaggio della Valsesia.

Christmas cake with white roses and golden confetti

torta natalizia con rose bianche e confetti dorati

decorated cakes evoke awe and admiration in me. The ingredients of the pastry are modeled with great skill to take up the issue of artistic hiding under the cover layers of tasty cakes soft and rich fillings.

This is our first experiment after a "raid" in a British supermarket where we have recovered gold-colored candies, marzipan and fondant icing ready. We packed imitating a cake we tasted by adding the cascade of small roses wrapped one by one. The only advice to prepare the cake and roses filled the day before and finish the decoration when the basics have rested and have "solidified" make the composition easier.

rich chocolate cake (from Kitchen Michele Cranston Marie Claire)

butter

250 g dark chocolate 200 g

strong coffee and 375 ml

sugar

450 g flour 175 g

baking powder 1 teaspoon

3 tablespoons cocoa

2 eggs

pure vanilla extract 2 tablespoons

Heat the oven 180 degrees and play a mold of 25 cm with baking paper. Warm up the butter, chocolate and coffee in a saucepan. Add sugar and stir until it dissolves. Remove from heat and pour into a bowl. Add the dry ingredients, stirring with a whisk, then add eggs and vanilla and make the dough smooth and homogeneous.

Pour into the pan and cook for 50-55 minutes. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack 6 -10 hours.

To decorate

frosting: chocolate 200 g cream 150 g

icing fondant

500 g marzipan 500 g

Cut the center of the cake is receiving a "heart" of the cake of 18 cm thereby eliminating the edges. Then we proceed by cutting the cake in half obtaining two layers, with a lot of attention because it is gorgeous but very gentle:-D.

The chocolate glaze is obtained by melting the chocolate into the cream, and left to cool the cream mounts with a whisk to obtain a compact glaze.

With a spatula, fill the first layer of cake, cover with the second disc is always gently covers the entire face and edges. You leave in the fridge overnight to let it shrink. Meanwhile prepare the roses by the petals with dark chocolate frosting and the flowers are custom made with the help of a little water (like glue) and powdered sugar to get the dough with a rolling pin.

The following day, prepare a "browse" to cover the cake with marzipan filling, then we proceed with a second coverage with a "puff" of fondant icing. To "paste" roses and sweets using a soft glaze of powdered sugar with very little water.

To decorate the cake using ribbons or gold ribbons.

To see how to proceed in several steps, for example, I peered here, and since I really like the series The Cake Boss I leave the mental note to this cake blacks with embroidery: - )

Seasons Greetings to you all and your families!

What Is The Best Epilator 2010

ENVIRONMENT, WASTE, HEALTH

   important contribution to the proper management of waste   

   Patrizia Gentilini,    oncologist, President of the ISDE  

  Forlì  

  (International Society of Doctors  

  for Environment).  

  In this paper, it shows the serious damage,  

  established at international scientific  

  waste incinerators that produce human health.  
 

Talk waste management and impacts of incineration on health is, in the light of the resurgence of the waste in the Campania region and the preliminary results of the study Moniter about the reproductive outcomes in populations living near incinerators of 8 of our region, most current than ever.

Concerning the first point it is not surprising because, like any good doctor knows (or should know ...), if a disease is not addressed by removing the causes and applying the right treatment sooner or later will recur: Naples nothing has been done with regard to the treatment of wet or recycling of materials recovered, as surprising that the emergence of recurrence?

About the study Moniter, as noted by the President of the Medical Doctor of Bologna. Pizza, participating in the study, recently presented the results about the reproductive outcomes are not reassuring as we would like to believe. From these data is in fact a statistically significant increase in risk of preterm delivery (32-36 weeks) varies from + 18% to + 30% + 69% related to the level of exposure and an increase risk of birth before 32 weeks, increasing with increasing exposure from + 29% to almost 130%, not to be overlooked also the reporting of risk of birth of children with low weight for gestational age: a confirmation of the alarm about the "folly" of waste incineration, as it had to define the Prof. Tomatis here in Forlì in 2005.

We know that thousands of substances, including dozens of carcinogens come from these plants and that even the best systems can not keep killing the ultrafine particles, then why insist when these poisons can do absolutely live without?

The words of Professor David Kriebel of the Department of Health and Environment Massachussets sono a questo proposito esemplari. Kriebel, ha commentato un ultimo recentissimo studio - pubblicato sulla rivista  Occup Environ Med -   condotto da ricercatori dell’Università di Lione in una area in cui sono attivi 21 inceneritori, che ha evidenziato su 304 neonati con gravi difetti all’apparto genitale rischi statisticamente significativi (fino a quasi sei volte l’atteso!) correlati all’esposizione alle diossine emesse dagli inceneritori.

Queste le parole del Prof Kriebel: “ Lo studio.. suscita serie preoccupazioni in relazione ai rischi per la salute dovuti alle emissioni di impianti urbani di incenerimento waste. This fact, combined with evidence of other adverse effects of this technology, would in itself be decisive in the choice of waste management. In fact, apart from being very dangerous to health, these facilities :

1) cause the production of toxic ash and slag, however, disposed of,

2) contribute to global warming;

3) prevent the waste reduction and recycling, as once these expensive facilities were built, managers want to have a guaranteed source of waste continues to feed them. "

As more and more responsibility for confirming the crucial role which exposure to pollutants, especially in the early stages of life, onset of disease too often incurable ( tumors, endocrine diseases metabolic, neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's) will devastate the lives of many people and their families, we should stop substances that enter the environment from air, water from the food end in our body, starting with all that is preventable or even is completely useless

As Doctors for the Environment we have repeatedly expressed very clearly our absolute opposition to this practice, not only by the risk that it health of populations, but also because it counteracts and prevents the realization of proper waste management sector, which was the first thing we should learn to reduce and then re-enter the recycling materials recovered in production cycles.

Achieving this is not utopia, but a reality already widely tested and implemented.

Only under For example, you may sue the City Award winner for Best Legambiente 2010 Waste Management, the City of Ponte nelle Alpi, which with the doorstep collection and recycling of collaborating with the Center for the recovery Vedelago materials, has managed in just two years to reduce their waste as much 's 88.4%, while reducing the cost for disposal by € 475,000 in 2007 to just € 56,136 in 2009!

The meeting of 23 Minutes that will draw the businesswoman Carla Poli, who directs the Center for Recycling just quoted - awarded for innovation in Europe technology in the recovery of the subject - and an administrator - Manuela Ruggeri - who managed to take off to collect door to door in a municipality of the Province of Bologna (where, as here, by Hera) therefore represents an important opportunity for ; see how this is possible and how we can transform the waste management problem RESOURCE. The start of the harvest home in Forlì and, hopefully, opening a recycling center is the first, necessary step to see the fall waste to the incinerator and at the same time, help to preserve, at least for the future The health of our children.

Deepest Aluminum Boat

health considerations on the proposed biomass power plant Luserna SG

express wish to express their views on the possible risks to public health that might result from the construction of a wood biomass-fired power plant in the town of St. Luserna John.

Wood is a bad fuel and its use can be tolerated in domestic installations and small-scale for heating of buildings.

Particularly relevant is the contribution of atmospheric particulates and oxides of nitrogen, the last powerful broncoirritanti and precursors of 'ozone.

as planned, the plant will emit 250 mg / NMC NOx, equivalent to an annual total of 31,000 kg (31 tons) of nitrogen oxides.

Wood also retains a number of other combustion products, particularly critics, including especially interesting are the PAHs and dioxins (dioxins + furans, PCBs + true).

The ANPA provides an estimate of the amount of dioxin produced per kilogram of different materials, technology of incineration and killing similar to that which would be used to Luserna.

The central characteristics hardly compatible with a closed environment and limited as that of Val Pellice.

burning about 51,000 pounds of wood (the daily requirement of the plant) every day for eleven months there would be the emission of 500,000 pg (picograms) per day and about 167 million pg of dioxin per year, intended to build up in soil and plants.

remember that the dose accepted as tolerable for a healthy adult by WHO was 2 pg per kg of body weight per day, then 150 pg for an adult weighing 75 kg E 'known that children, especially infants, receiving large shares of fat, are more at risk of accumulation and are more vulnerable to damage caused by the dioxins countless.

It 'important to detect substances such as dioxins are not water soluble and persistent in the environment where the damage phenomena of bioaccumulation in the food chain that sees man as a last terminal. 5 E 'so as to provide an accumulation of dioxins from a new source, which should be in addition to those from existing sources.

Ciò è incompatibile con l’obiettivo di migliorare la qualità dell’aria e contrasta con l’orientamento dell’Unione Europea in materia.

52001DC0593 Comunicazione della Commissione al Consiglio, al Parlamento europeo e al Comitato economico e sociale - Strategia comunitaria sulle diossine, i furani e i bifenili policlorurati /* COM/2001/0593 def. */ gazzetta ufficiale n. C 322 del 17/11/2001 pag. 0002 - 0018      

Action is needed to further reduce emissions of these substances and prevent the negative effects of dioxins and PCBs on the environment and human health. It is essential therefore that the Commission adopt a strategy to reduce the presence of these compounds in the environment, feed and food, including short-, medium and long term. Such a strategy would have to guarantee complete control of the problem of dioxins and PCBs within ten years. After this, the strategy proposed here will be re-evaluated and revised to take account of progress. The results of this strategy could also be used to reduce concentrations of other substances dangerous persistent in the environment. "

It seems to me that creating a new source (however small) of dioxin in the Valley, in addition to those already existing, of which nothing is known, does not go in the direction advocated by the Commission and the European Union.

A completely similar reasoning should be done about the PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons), a known carcinogen and have certainly produced by the various activities involving combustion (eg vehicle traffic, particularly heavy).

the situation is even less controllable with regard to atmospheric emissions of heavy metals known to be present in the release gas (and especially in ash and dust filtration) from the combustion of wood, in fact the reports in the literature report varying concentrations of metals, depending on the composition of media on which grew the plants themselves.

Finally, it is reported the possible presence in the fumes of benzene, formaldehyde and butadiene, all carcinogens.

Some considerations on the fine

intended release (theoretical) total particulate matter (PM) of the central under conditions of normal use, would amount to 12 mg / NMC, which when multiplied by the emission of 15500 NMC time for the total of operating hours per year (8000 hr) means a release into the atmosphere yearly total of 1488 kg of airborne particulates.

The airborne particulate is monitored by law in his village PM10 (ie all particles with aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to 10 micrometers).

E 'ImportantTelephones be aware that the coarse fraction of PM10, ie particles with a diameter of 10 μm to 2.5 stop, as they decrease the size, in the upper airways, main bronchi, small bronchi. may be largely responsible for chronic respiratory diseases, not excluding the cancers because of the carcinogens that can carry with them.

particles from 2.5 μm down instead penetrate the lungs and gradually decreases as their size are able to cross the alveolar-capillary barrier and then enter the bloodstream.

"There is increasing evidence that exposure to PM2, 5 is associated with the development of adverse effects on health, mortality, such as respiratory, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and morbidity." ^{1, 3}

The PM 2.5 are therefore the most dangerous, but their quantity in the air emitted nothing can be known and can only make indirect estimates.

PM10 (by weight) will be subject to self-care facility operators the same, but will not be given to know the ratio of particles of different sizes and in particular the so-called fine and ultrafine particles having a size

and 0.1 μm respectively. consider that as PM10 weighs about 1000 and 1,000,000 PM1 PM0, 1, and we realize that in total particulate (or PM10) will contain many more particles small diameter compared to coarse.

In investigations where the particles are counted, it was found that ultrafine (PM0, 1) accounted for 70% of the total number, but it is hard to predict, in the absence of effective measures, the numerical relations between particles of different sizes.

E ', however, would expect a decrease in diameter (and consequently an increase in the number) of particles in proportion to the temperature of combustion: temperature = more smaller size of the particles.

the installation in question, the combustion temperature will be around 1000 ° C, then we expect the contribution of fine and ultrafine particulate matter (the most harmful to health, particularly the elderly and children) 4 is particularly significant part of the total particulate weight.

Conclusions

The filtering system on the fumes of the plant only provides for the removal of total dust, with an expected greater efficiency on the coarser powders, every other component is not trapped.

sisema The continuous self-monitoring involves the measurement of:

PM10

CO (carbon monoxide)

NOx (oxides of nitrogen)

SO 2 (carbon dioxide di zolfo)

TOC (Composti organici totali)

Le emissioni principali previste dal progetto sono:

NOx   = 250 mg/Nmc, pari a 31 tonnellate/anno

PM10 = 12 mg/Nmc, pari a 1488 Kg/anno

A cui aggiungiamo un’emissione di diossina prudenzialmente stimabile in circa:

10 pg (picogrammi) /Kg incenerito pari a 167.000.000 pg/anno

ed emissioni imprevedibili (e che non sono oggetto di controllo) di IPA (Idrocarburi Policiclici Aromatici), metalli pesanti (Pb, Cu, Mn, Zn, As), benzene, formaldehyde, 1,3 butadiene.

should be emphasized that the Val Pellice is a narrow valley and steep flanks, with winter conditions of strong thermal inversion, a phenomenon that causes an accumulation of air pollutants in the lower layers in the months when their production the boiler would reach maximum intensity. remember that the ultrafine behave as a gas and persist long into the atmosphere before being deposited or aggregate into larger particles.

While political bodies and international scientific demand to reduce the level of air pollution, this project goes in the opposite direction, with predictable negative effects on the health of the population, particularly its most vulnerable. 4

I therefore ask the directors of the municipalities of Val Pellice, also based on the precautionary principle which should inspire all authority that monitors public health, to express a negative opinion on the construction of the proposed power plant woody biomass.

E Novara launches the ethnic shops at a safe distance

Novara - Novara in ethnic grocery stores may not be less than 150 meters l 'a by 'others, the owners must demonstrate knowledge of the' Italian, to translate signs written in Italian language will also prevent Madrea are fined, and on the sidewalk in front of the 'input forming knots of people talking. With these four points the crackdown that the 'Novara city administration, led by the Northern League, set in an' order to regulate the growth of Chinese takeaways, kebab shops, butchers Islamic and African market. "In the last ten years was born in Novara forty shops and workshops of this type. Most are concentrated in certain streets around the train station is this new rule really want to avoid quei rioni diventino un ghetto. Inoltre ci siamo accorti che le condizioni igieniche erano scadenti: in 21 controlli fatti negli ultimi tempi non abbiamo trovato un locale totalmente in regola», spiega l' assessore alla Sicurezza, Mauro Franzinelli, che insieme al dirigente della polizia locale, Paolo Cortese,è "anima" di questa ordinanza. Cheè solo l' ultima di una serie di leggi firmate dal sindaco, che non passano dalla discussione in consiglio, per «combattere il degrado». Negli anni scorsi aveva fatto discutere l' ordinanza che impediva alle donne musulmane di uscire con il burqa. Un' altra norma vietava di frequentare nelle ore notturne alcune aree verdi. Un' altra anti-prostituzione multava clientie prostitutes. A 'still banned in other places around the station to sell cans of beer to take away' to stop people camps in the gardens, giving the city a bad image to those arriving by train, "says the 'Councillor Franzinelli. Last, the close up kebabs and the like. Met most of the residents, who often had complained to the City because "at every store that closes it opens our one them." Worried about foreign managers: "If we open in other areas than in areas where foreigners live, we do not sell anymore." - Federica Cravero

delights of the province of Alessandria: Montebore and acacia honey

Montébore al Salone del Gusto di Torino 2010

Ok, faccio un sacco di chilometri per lavoro ... ma qualche vantaggio c'é: sconfinando di provincia i colleghi di lavoro (buongustai) consigliano acquisti di prodotti tipici delle loro zone e così ho avuto l'occasione di acquistare una bella formella di Montébore direttamente dal produttore nella "mitica" Val Borbera.

L'avevo già intravisto da Il luppolo selvatico (che lo racconta in modo splendido andate a leggere), ma assaggiarlo è stata tutta un'altra cosa. L'ho poi "rivisto" con piacere al Salone del gusto a Torino :-)

Since gluttony knows no bounds until it comes to Middle-earth (oops ... I'm not talking about a time when The Lord of the Rings !?!). Remaining lands Alexandrian I bought a resounding acacia honey. I am hard on but this is truly irresistible aroma, flavor and texture. So I confess

pairing: Unpacking the tiles Montebore (produced 24/9/2010) by pack nice signet and left at room temperature, it was all finished in "slices" with drops of acacia honey Farm Middle Earth.

What Is The Best Salon Atmosphere

water and oil (fried)




many have wondered, after every fry, where you can pour the waste oil? And the oil canning? Butter and margarine that remain in the pots? Finally today this problem has a solution, curbing environmental pollution that we all, unknowingly, we have helped to generate.

When oils and fats, cooking oil come from any productive activity are considered "non-hazardous waste", destined for recovery in accordance with art. 184 paragraph 2, of Legislative Decree 152/2006.
Decree Law No. 152/2006, is the standard reference in the field of waste management. It established the National Consortium for collecting and processing of oils and fats of plant and animal catalysts (cone), which ensures the proper management of such waste, ie: their collection from the creators because of his professional activities, transportation, storage, treatment, and finally, recovery. In fact, oils and fats, animal and vegetable oils, are "recoverable", that if subjected to appropriate treatment processes and regeneration, enable as "secondary raw materials" the production of fat for construction, glycerin and methyl ester, vegetable oil lubricant, soaps, biodiesel, electricity.
Many of us with irresponsible habit, have always poured into sinks, and therefore in sewage, soil or even in your garden, the remaining oil or butter for seasoning, frying, canning, food subt ' oil (eg canned tuna), unaware of the consequences, in terms of environmental pollution generated by this gesture: pollution of underground water courses surface of the water (preventing oxygen and endangering the ' existence of flora and fauna) as well as problems of proper management and operation of wastewater treatment plants of civilians. Discard the oil in the sewage is highly polluting! Remember that the environment is a gift you received from your parents and you are required to give to your children.





USED VEGETABLE OIL FOR FRYING: A THREAT TO THE ENVIRONMENT

In Italy are every year, released for consumption (directly as cooking oil or because present in other food) to 1.4 billion pounds (1,400,000 tons) of vegetable oil for an average consumption of about 25 kg per capita per year (source: Ministry of Health). Of this quantity is estimated to be remaining unused amounts to about 20%. We are therefore faced with more than 280 million pounds (280 thousand tons.) of used vegetable oil, about 5 kg each, every year "give back" to the environment, largely as a residue frying, and therefore "rich" of pollutants.
There are several experimental works of Italian and foreign researchers aim to study the dynamics of the reactions and thermal that oxidative and the quality and quantity of more or less toxic substances that are produced during the frying of food.

vegetable oil, in fact, led to the high temperatures needed for frying , changing its structure. A complex series of reactions leading to the formation of numerous oxidation products and a large number of breakdown products of volatile and nonvolatile. The volatile compounds are lost during frying non-volatile oil to accumulate in the latter after a certain number of heating, it must be considered damaged and more has absorbed the pollutants resulting from the charring of the food waste.
The changes above are also discernible effects such as defects in the smell and flavor, darkening of the color, viscosity increase, lowering the smoke point, foaming, etc.. directly related to the state of degradation of the oil.
The result is a substance that has lost virtually all of the original purity and authenticity, and that has become a serious hazard if dispersed in the environment.
oil that enters the ground is deposited with a thin film around the soil particles and thus forming a barrier layer between the particles own, the capillary water and the roots of plants, preventing the intake of nutrients. If the ' oil reaches the mirror of the water table form on the same layer with a thickness of 3-5 cm. that moves with the water downstream, so drinking water wells can reach very far, making them unusable, because a quart of oil mixed with one million gallons of water is enough to alter the taste in a restriction which conflicts with the potability.
oil instead reach any body of surface water can go to form a thin waterproof film that prevents oxygen and undermines the existence of flora and fauna. It 'amazing to think that one kilogram of oil used is sufficient for this film with an area of \u200b\u200b1000 square meters.
Disposal of this huge amount of oily residue will cause problems even where there are proper sanitation, because it can undermine the proper functioning of water treatment plants (negatively influence the biological treatment) and still make it secure economy, in fact in the preliminary phase of treatment requires the creation of special oil separators, based on the principle of flotation to separate the form of material floating oils and fats present in sewage.
Only a correct and controlled disposal of vegetable oil used can therefore ensure the protection of the environment.

A SOURCE OF ENERGY SAVING

Like many other residues also ' used vegetable oil can be, if separately collected from other waste and environmental benefits also a source of energy savings because it is possible after correct processes of regeneration, a re-use industry.
L ' used vegetable oil collected from companies authorized pickers in suitable containers for storage and transport companies to start regeneration.
Here you proceed to the stage of screening to separate the solids, then stored and then treated. Then the continuous regeneration process by bringing the compound at a temperature of about 70 degrees and carried in special "agitators serpentine" or " centrifuge, and separated from other substances, and then cooled. The water thus obtained, in turn, are purified.
Then you add the additives and carbonaceous substances are filtered.
The material obtained is subjected to heat treatment to remove the volatile acids present in small percentages, but responsible for odor of treated products.
The derivative of this process, depending on the degree of purity and transparency achieved, can be reused in various ways, for example, as a base (up to 20-30%) for mineral oil, or started the production of emulsifiers for asphalt and bitumen road.
one kilogram of vegetable oil used are obtained 0.8 kg of regenerated lubricating base: a significant saving when you consider that the alternative to the recycled product would consist of synthetic mineral oil derivante da prodotti petroliferi.
Il 20% di residuo che deriva dalla rigenerazione viene utilizzato in impianti adatti a farne usi industriali come ad esempio la produzione di mastici, distaccanti per casseforme di cemento, inchiostri da stampa e saponi industriali, inoltre attraverso controlli adeguati e sofisticati cicli di rigenerazione, può essere anche riutilizzato nella mangimistica animale.
Negli ultimi anni in Italia quasi l’80% del prodotto rigenerato dall’olio vegetale usato è stato riutilizzato in mangimistica animale fino a maggio di quest’anno quando è scoppiato lo scandalo dei polli alla diossina in Belgio.

DIOXIN SCANDAL IN BELGIUM

In Belgium as early as January-February 1999, some engineers had discovered that the intensive farming of chickens for eggs and chickens were born without a shell, analyzing the chickens had been discovered that they had a very high percentage of dioxin. The Belgian government has kept around until June 1999 when the scandal broke.
According to experts, after investigation, the source of pollution by dioxins in eggs and poultry should be sought in the use of feed supplemented with fat derived from ' oil grill , repeatedly and incorrectly used. The Accused would in particular the system of separate collection of waste frying in Belgium. It is therefore possible that in containers designed to collect edible oils have been thrown mineral oil, a possible source of contamination. Dioxin can not be in any way in frying oils, nor can it be contained meat and bone meal to make if they are used only fats and vegetable oils and animal bones .. Although the collection is made in Italy with a door to door based on agreements between companies gatherers and producers of vegetable oils, and then you can check the source of the product, the feed Italians have decided not to use meat and bone meal with the addition of vegetable oils .
In part it arose the question of disposal, recovery and reuse the oil as was the enormous amount used by companies for processing into flour and it was decided to use it for processing into bio-diesel project that was already in experimental stage and now uses most of the oil used.




THE BIO-DIESEL
The Bio-diesel , the best known of the fuel alternative to diesel, is extracted from plants and seeds for its non-polluting. It is used both for transport and for heating fuel this plant for its nature helps to reduce atmospheric emissions of pollutants, typical of mineral fuels and / or methane. The vegetable oil exhausted, as well as extracts of plant seeds, is used as a basis for making Bio-diesel or ecological fuel, then the product is greatly ennobled passing from waste to fuel ecology.
PROCESSING OIL USED FOR THE BIO-DIESEL
arrival of the waste in the factory are made to quality control and routine analysis, then
is done by unifying and elimination of odors and winterizzazione necessary for use as bio-diesel . This process serves to lower the temperature at which the product is still able to run (ie it is still liquid) and is brought to the pour point of -6 ° C °.
The next process consists in a transesterification with methyl alcohol is then ready for the Bio-diesel made from vegetable fatty acid methyl esters.
After we saw the damage that may result in non-disposal through official channels of ' used vegetable oil and its possible uses in industry, animal feed, and as an energy source, we see what is being done in Italy to try to recover most of that refusal.

IDEA CONSORTIUM

The "National Consortium for collecting and processing vegetable oils and animal fats" was founded in 1991 by an agreement between companies and companies harvesting regenerators used vegetable oil, in order to optimize the collection throughout the country and provide its customers, on the one hand a comprehensive and efficient service, the other, the absolute guarantee of compliance with current legislation.
Since 1991, the Consortium continues to expand as both volume collection, both in number of customers served (mostly workers in the catering sector), and for many other associated companies of the Consortium shared the spirit and objectives.
Today the Consortium has 15 companies and 120 companies regenerative pickers.
entrepreneurs who lead them, the obvious desire to live and advance their businesses, which together employ more than 1000 employees combine a profound ecological awareness and stimulating the conviction to make with their work and with over 5 million oil used crop an active contribution to environmental protection.

SERVICE

The quality of the service is any of the carriers on which the Consortium has based its strategy.
The goal has been from the outset and is increasingly to combine a standard supply and efficiency of a customized service.
Each of the companies serve more than 50,000 members of the Consortium bins provide a suitable container to the collection and storage of used oil to an appropriate size of volumes produced by each customer (if required) the complaint to the land waste, namely the MUD (single model of environmental statement) . Significantly
valuable, especially at a time like the present where all the regulations on classification, collection and allocation of waste is in constant evolution is also the activity of "advice" that the consortium can offer to their customers, updating them timely information about obligations under new legislation passed or rules introduced and providing them with an excellent service in compliance with the legislation.

A CONSORTIUM TO MANDATORY

Two important elements of consideration:

1. the very high power pollutant of a substance such as' used vegetable oil that, by its very nature as a "liquid", is certainly more insidious than other waste, because more easily disposed of improperly,
2. read the following estimation :

70 million gallons of used oil products from restaurants ,
5 million gallons disposed of by the member companies ,
5 million gallons disposed of by other companies authorized , then
There are about 60 million liters or not disposed of or if they are not is known for much of route and destination.
The strong suspicion is that in the absence of a monitoring and a systematic, much of this oil can be used illegally on the road to re-use in the food industry.
is insufficient evidence to suggest that the sector needs to be carefully regulated.
The most satisfactory results in recent years by the Consortium Required that deals with the collection of mineral oils exhausted, albeit carefully assessing the differences between the two waste reinforces the belief that the most effective way to go for vegetable oil is similar. And in fact with the Legislative Decree No 22 of 5 February 1997 was Chartered Mandatory Consortium of vegetable oils that will be responsible for organizing and controlling the collection and disposal of used oil is made, on the whole national territory, in full compliance with applicable laws.

RECYCLING PILOT PROJECT

L ' product used vegetable oil from restaurant operators ( restaurants, pizzerias , canteens , etc..) is not a party, although significant, the total quantity.
The other major source of dispersal of used vegetable oil, is produced by the oil poured into sewage systems as household waste. Amounts are individually insignificant, but taken together incredibly large: 210 million liters per year, equivalent to about 3.8 kg capita.
collect this oil is also very difficult undertaking, however, that it becomes impossible if you are unable to activate the cooperation of every citizen and local government and for this to happen it is essential that there is information and awareness.
The organization of a collection service from the capillary allowed to recover from even this large amount of oil poured down the sink now.
In concert, each domestic producer, as well as to provide also raising awareness, should strive to give the 'old oil at special containers located in the spaces provided by the public and / or businesses.
laudable initiatives have already started in some cities, ecological islands in Macerata, and other places are being launched. The confusion, however, between the types of mineral oil and vegetable oil, for which the waste may be mixed incorrectly, causing a real problem of disposal for the impossibility of re-use, requires that containers be placed in controlled spaces. This, perhaps, together with a certain inertia of local and an investment is not supported by quantitative initially recover from domestic production was one of the limitations encountered so far at the takeoff of a collection plan that involved staff all citizens, which now even if armed with good will, they do not know where or how to give them more or less small but significant amount of waste.
We believe that several initiatives can be viable for the involvement all institutional bodies and individuals.
Regions, to boost recycling of waste vegetable oils and oppose this massive loss could have its own specific rules.
Municipalities should include in their regulations the manner of collection of service with the definition of areas in which every citizen can possibly give their plastic containers and economic support to be provided for new projects. These areas can be identified in local areas (ecological islands) or private (condominiums, commercial areas, schools, parishes). Important
still proves the work of all who see this initiative as a real contribution to environmental protection by helping to raise awareness, promote and facilitate by all administrations, the establishment of separate collection of waste vegetable oils.
We are still in their infancy, but these proposals, even under the infant's Mandatory National Consortium, is certainly in the right direction is towards the establishment of a challenging project and an investment that are adequate to solve a major problem for the Protection of 'environment.

SOME BRIEF EXPLANATION ON PREVIOUS

= OXIDATION chemical reaction for which a substance or item is combined with oxygen.
CARBONIZATION = process of reduction of organic substances, which tends to keep only the carbon
FLOTATION = exploits the properties of certain solids to be hydrophilic, that is to absorb water compared to others that are hydrophobic, which water does not stick. This is accomplished pulverizing the solid mixture and suspending it in water. Then added a foaming agent and blows into the water. The hydrophilic component, which became heavier, settles on the bottom of the container, while the hydrophobic adheres to bubbles gas and this is dragged to the surface.
DIOXIN = is the chemical with the highest content of toxic, man-made as a byproduct of certain harmful chemical reactions and as a byproduct of any generic form of incineration, in small quantities. Of course you should try to minimize emissions to very low levels, but "Zero Dioxin ', zero = zero, the value expressed by Greenpeace in its report, is unthinkable. If we are serious about zero, you should eliminate all forms of heating with fossil fuels, stop driving on the engine, close all factories, whether they use or do not use chlorine because they generate all the quantities, even if infinitesimal traces of dioxin and other harmful substances that are spread out to air, water and soil. And, finally and most important, you should stop nature because nature itself produces dioxin from burning natural.
There have been incidents in which they were made large amounts of dioxins, and from which we can deduce what are the risks in the short and long term the drug-related. The most famous is the incident at Seveso. Caused by an overheated reactor began to issue in the area surrounding a cloud of chemicals produced by the reaction, including from a few hundred grams to a few pounds of the type of the most toxic dioxin.

Those nine cents in the pockets of farmers Documents

collapse of the prices (nine cents for a pound of carrots) and companies are increasingly at a loss. That's why you need a new pact between consumers and agricultural workers.

Carlo Petrini

What you can buy today with 9 euro cents? Not enough for a text message, maybe enough for a few nails. I can not think of much else, except that it is the wholesale price of a pound of carrots. But it is only one of many possible examples when it comes to food. It is likely that readers will not be realized because it costs them more equal if not more, but the prices that emerge farmers are in steady decline for years. The farms produce almost all the loss and what goes surprisingly unnoticed. Some people still care for our agriculture?


From WWII to today, the sector has never been so in crisis as now think that only a quarter of wheat is paid between 13 and 15 € at a price much lower than even twenty years ago , when he was 25. Only in the last five years has lost about 30%. And in between there was the inflation of production costs: how to detect associations now produce one hectare of wheat a farmer costs 900 euro, and what one gets are 600 €. Sfido chiunque a non farsi passare la voglia di lavorare a queste condizioni. Tutti i settori vivono questa crisi: le stalle di bovini e suini stanno subendo una vera e propria ecatombe. Solo nel settore lattiero-caseario siamo passati da più di 180 mila stalle nell'89 alle attuali 43 mila circa. Il prezzo medio dei suini, al chilo, nel 1990 era di 1,2 euro, nel 2009 è lo stesso.

Siamo arrivati al punto che andrebbe bene il commercio equo e solidale per i nostri contadini, e non per quelli dei Paesi poveri. Secondo dati ufficiali, nel 2009 i prezzi all'ingrosso sono diminuiti rispetto all'anno precedente del 71% per le carote, del 53% per le pesche, del 30% il grano, del 30% il latte, del 19% l'uva e il trend quest'anno non sembra migliorare, anzi. Una volta i contadini dicevano che il riso era l'unico prodotto che dava loro una certa sicurezza, perché anche se tutto andava male un minimo di guadagno lo offriva sempre. Beh, neanche il riso si salva, se nell'ottobre 2009 costava quasi 50 euro al quintale e oggi arriva a 30.

Un disastro di proporzioni mai viste, ma forse se ne stanno accorgendo soltanto i contadini, sempre più disperati. Perché a noi la carota pagata 9 centesimi ai contadini continua a costare un euro al chilo, con l'incredibile ricarico del 1100 per cento. Il latte, pagato la miseria di 30 centesimi al litro, lo compriamo a più di un euro e le pesche, che al chilo valgono più o meno come un litro di latte, ci it costs almost two euro.

's crazy, but it is the norm and no longer news. And things are cyclical: they are structural. Our agriculture is still, fortunately, made up of many small to medium businesses, and this has always been our strength. Diversity, local roots that has brought in terms of beauty on our nation's ability to preserve biodiversity is also an expression of culture, of a slow and careful, the main result of our "local adaptation". But these small to medium businesses have marked the future if there are no strong changes, with the ability to consider the long term. Our agriculture for As in the original European context is not immune from the processes of industrialization, centralization, and even more concentration of agriculture that have invested in the countries of Northern Europe, France, Great Britain, along the lines of what happened in the United States is the 'idea that we can produce food without farmers. Both the food you do travel, so only a few employees who become workers piece rate for large industries or supply chains. We

agriculture by birth one of the oldest in Europe. We have a young farmer, under the age of 35, every 12.5 farmers with more than 65 years. Nothing comparable to France and Germany, where the same rapporto scende rispettivamente a 1,5 e 0,8. Significa che in Germania ci sono più persone in agricoltura con meno di 35 anni che con più di 65. E se non bastano gli anziani, arrivano gli immigrati, che visto l'andazzo non è poi tanto sconveniente sfruttare anche in maniera violenta. L'altro giorno ero a Zibello, cittadina diventata marchio internazionale di qualità per via del culatello. Sulle panchine del paese ho visto delle donne con il sari indiano. "Gli indiani riescono a sopportare la vita grama dei nostri vecchi" mi è stato detto quando ho chiesto perché erano lì.

Chi altri vuole sopportare questa vita grama? Nessuno, e il problema è proprio quello. Come si fa a vivere se il cibo viene pagato così poco? Se le campagne non hanno più uomini e donne che le popolano e le mantengono vive? Sotto lo scintillìo degli scaffali nei nostri luoghi di spesa spesso c'è un commercio che tende ad avere le stesse caratteristiche di quello nei Paesi in via di sviluppo: sfruttamento, intermediari che fanno il bello e il cattivo tempo, infiltrazioni della malavita che fa viaggiare i prodotti a puro scopo speculativo, contadini che alla fine si riducono in miseria e devono mollare. È la faccia triste del progresso, il risultato cui tutte le agricolture "moderne" e "competitive" saranno destinate se non ci si rende conto che il lavoro contadino va riconosciuto, rispettato, premiato, incentivato, protetto, portato in palmo di mano come base profonda e intelligente della nostra società. Forse ci vogliono meno industrie e più persone nelle campagne.

I fanatici del Pil questo non lo capiscono, bollano come "poesia" la vendita diretta (in costante crescita), i mercati dei contadini, la piccola produzione che non è in grado di far viaggiare merci per tutto il mondo ma riesce bene a coprire il fabbisogno dei mercati locali. Senza contadini sparirà anche il "made in Italy" agro-alimentare: non basteranno le industrie a spacciare una menzogna, ovvero prodotti sempre più finti, di peggiore qualità, sempre più omologati su un livello medio-basso. E la colpa sarà di tutti, la colpa è già di tutti.

I commercianti: seven groups of retail share out 98% of their market. The mark-ups between the final price and the price rise is very high. These people are more powerful, stronger multinational seed, because quest'oligopolio can affect quality, features, output prices. If "eating is an agricultural act" - and we must take all conscience - even distribute it became an agricultural act, but negative when the product does not have the required characteristics is not withdrawn, and the gear to decide the price is killer. In this way, is oriented agriculture, a mechanism is established which tend to large concentrations, which for these groups are easier to manage. I will not take too much with the large retailers because they contribute to this situation along with all others involved in the processes of food, but the main operating unit was born in Italy in the last century to defend the rights of the weakest, to make food accessible large sections of the population. Even today is focusing on the rights of consumers in its advertising, and should be recognized that much progress in this direction have been made, but I want to point out that the work done in favor of the farmers may not be adequately informed and, I add, must be implemented .

I am talking about because I think Coop is a person able to develop strong a transformation of virtue. When my grandfather, a socialist, railroad engineer, in 1920 was with other "comrades" of the consumer cooperative Bra, his city, had the clear purpose of this institution solidarity. Revitalize this purpose today is to build a new compact between farmers and citizens, to strengthen information and traceability of products, nutrition education, support local agriculture and seasonal products. To those who tell me that this is the case I say that is not enough. To those who say they will not be sustainable from a financial standpoint I say that is the only policy that can raise the Coop in a context of great crisis.

But it is easy to blame others rather Let us realize that we are not exempt from responsibility. When I read that, faced with the problem of mozzarella blue smurfs have sprung up like a couple of weeks ago, there were no adverse reactions "possibility" of consumers ("I buy them anyway, because they cost very little, then up to see if that blue throw them away ") I realize that we are approaching a point of no return. Count only the more the price, we expect such low prices that we can not even complain if the quality is poor. At most is wasted, thrown away. Moreover, the more we know the quality even recognize. Arise for zucchini six or seven euro in winter when we do not realize that it is foolish to ask the zucchini in the winter. Now that they are in season, for the record, they cost a euro or so. If we ourselves, as consumers, small gear essential for the system, do not begin to realize that food should be paid the fair, which has value not just price, we need to help the farmers because "eating is an agricultural act, then nothing will ever change, and our agriculture will die serial, fake and approved as in many other countries around the world who have committed these errors. See United States, where no coincidence is experiencing a renaissance led by foodies, people who have heart of their food and that of their children, serving farmers markets, develop networks of direct sales on the Internet, invite a new generation of young people to become farmers and chefs who make the local and eco flags affixed to amazing kitchens .

I wonder when we will have a food policy worthy of the name, that will educate people to make responsible decisions, sustainable and enjoyable, giving a hand to those farmers who produce them and the correct way for our good. I do not see strong signals to either the government or the opposition. For years, farmers were assisted with subsidies to rain, thus impoverishing the way they produce and do business, and today sono isolati e gabbati. Dobbiamo aspettare anche noi che la buona agricoltura ci muoia tra le braccia? Perché nessuno scende in piazza per difendere i contadini? Ci vuole un rinascimento che non guardi solo al Pil, che vada al di là degli interessi di categoria sussidiati per mantenere in vita un'agricoltura che, se non è già morta, è destinata a farlo presto. Un rinascimento che, credetemi, non è poesia come molti invasati del Pil sostengono. E' un rinascimento che parte dall'agricoltura ma non è soltanto agricolo. E' di vera civiltà.
