Wealth of biodiversity
Finally, the public presentation of the last two was held on 8 July in Giustenice (Savona). Italian Wilderness Areas, but also among the wildest, as well as the richest in biodiversity: Alta Val Maremola, of 1.175 hectares, and Monte Carmo, of 85 hectares, designated by the Municipalities of Giustenice and Magliolo, two small villages of the internal western Riviera, but also two "champions" defenders of their land strong in their autonomy and the rights of local populations. In the authoritative presence of the Honorable Francesco Bruzzone (former President of the Regional Council of Liguria for two terms, Senator and Vice-President of the 13th Standing Commission for the Territory, Environment, Environmental Assets, now a Deputy and member of the Agriculture Commission of the Parliament), as well as several Mayors and / or representatives of municipalities in the district.
Safeguard of the territory
Franco Zunino illustrated the aims of these Areas and their binding reasonableness, but above all the importance of having subjected the evocative and immaculate territory of the eastern part of Monte Carmo to strict safeguarding, the last "Alpine" mountain (both morphologically, both for the species of fauna and flora more typical of the Alps) of Liguria before turning into the Apennines. On this occasion, after having listened to the proposal of the Wilderness Association, the honorable Bruzzone announced his intention to promote a regional law that gives recognition to these territorial and environmental realities, and that rewards the Municipalities that are responsible for them . A proposal that has already been advanced several times to the Lazio Region, where most of the Italian Wilderness Areas exist and, if you like, already anticipated by the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region with the successful designation of 9 Wilderness Areas by the Council on its regional state property.
The enthusiasm of the hunting world
A proposal that aroused enthusiasm among the municipal administrators present, some of them already declaring themselves willing to favorably evaluate the prospect of designating other sectors of Area Wilderness around Monte Carmo. Enthusiasm has also been demonstrated by the world of hunting, which sees in these realities a compatible, as reasonable, protection of the environment. At the end of the event, the speleologist Roberto Panaro, from Pietra Ligure, was keen to announce the discovery of a spectacular cave located right in the heart of the Wilderness Area, which further increases both its cultural value and its biodiversity.
