Climate as a Common Good – Climate Action as a Matter of Social Justice
with Dino Zardi, Professor of Atmospheric Physics at the University of Trento
The climate emergency is a priority that can no longer be postponed. Climate change presents a series of urgent and unavoidable challenges for the future of humanity. People are aware of climate change because they experience it firsthand: it is no longer a question of belief—it is a fact.
We are in this situation because we rely on a development model based on the exploitation of fossil fuels. A change of course is essential. However, no action can truly be effective unless it is grounded in scientific knowledge, communicated in an accessible and citizen-oriented language that fosters awareness and sustainability. Unfortunately, the climate crisis is not only an environmental emergency, but also a humanitarian one, undermining the fundamental rights of individuals and communities.
Dino Zardi is the scientific coordinator of the Meteorology Festival in Rovereto and former president of the Italian Association for Atmospheric Sciences and Meteorology (AISAM).
