Gazzetta di Reggio | In Gazzetta the round table on commitment to the planet

‘This is how we engage’: guests from academia, public and private sectors

The Gazzetta di Reggio embraces the theme of environmental sustainability, to which it will dedicate specific spaces next summer. A number of representatives of public and private entities involved in the Reggio Emilia area were invited to the editorial office in via Pansa last Monday to illustrate the terms of their commitment. It was Earth Day, aimed at raising government and public awareness of the problems of climate change and pollution around the world.

The occasion was seized by Sergio Teggi, full professor of the ‘Enzo Ferrari’ Department of Engineering at Unimore, Carlotta Bonvicini, architect and councillor for the Environment of the Municipality of Reggio Emilia, Claudio Bacchi, general manager of Bacchi spa, a historic company from Boretto that produces building materials, Alan Pastorelli co-founder and technical director of Flash Battery, a company based in Sant’Ilario d’Enza and leader in the production of lithium batteries, Pierluigi Brini of Fortlan-Dibi, which is based in Ghiardo di Bibbiano and excels in the production of thermo-acoustic insulation, and Enrico Buoncore, head of Unindustria’s Environment and Energy area.

Alice Benatti, journalist for the Gazzetta di Reggio, coordinated the debate.
