00:00What a sea! A coastline lined with 1,000 islands, mysterious lagoons, miles of sandy beaches and impressive cliffs.
00:21The Adriatic is as diverse as the cultures it connects.
00:27With people who live and work in close contact with it.
00:43People who have experienced the vulnerability of nature and want to protect the sea.
00:50The Adriatic. Unique and beautiful. Familiar and yet full of surprises.
01:03The Adriatic sea connects Italy and lols.
01:21The Adriatic Sea connects Italy with five countries on the Balkan Peninsula.
01:40Between Ravenna and Vasto lie famous seaside resorts and impressive mountain landscapes.
01:4915 kilometers of beach, 250 Lidos.
02:04Preparations begin at half past six in the morning at Baño Diciasete, beach resort number 17.
02:19Half an hour later, all the parasols are set up and the sun loungers unfolded, ready for the onslaught of guests.
02:34Rimini's Old Town is also slowly coming to life.
02:44Alongside the Arch of Augustus, the Tiberius Bridge is one of the sites in the historic center of the city.
02:51Via them, the locals go to work and the sun seekers go to the beach.
02:57At Baño Diciasete, operators Barbara Fratti and Katia and Rossella Nobili just have to get the lifeboat afloat before the guests can arrive.
03:12The boat has to be ready for use in every Baño at 9 a.m. on the dot. Otherwise, the beach police will impose a fine.
03:21The three women work together well. Each has her own superpower.
03:27A me piace molto ascoltare la gente e provo a farla psicologa, a dargli dei consigli.
03:33La Ketty è quella che aggiusta tutto, risolve sempre tutti i problemi, è proprio veramente molto molto brava.
03:40Insieme a lei, dopo anche noi, è la nostra forza.
03:42Perché magari la Rossi, oddio adesso, e la Ketty, tranquille, ci pensiamo noi.
03:47La Rossi, la Rossi è il boss, cioè lei controlla le bollette, qui costa troppo.
03:52Ci fa risparmiare, spendono troppo.
03:54Ci cicchetta, oppure dice dove siete andate a fare la spesa e noi...
03:59Perché lei è molto molto brava, è un po' il suo messiere, lei è il manager dell'azienda.
04:04Tutte e tre facciamo cose diverse, però alla fine il risultato c'è.
04:08Siamo una forza.
04:09Siamo una forza, una dell'altra.
04:11Katia works alongside the bagno as a fitness trainer.
04:18Barbara as a nanny and Rossella in the office.
04:21She and Katia are sisters and have been friends with Barbara for ages.
04:26It was all to play.
04:27We were in the campground, we were three, I, Rossella and Barbara.
04:41And we asked, why not try to be a bagno as a bagno as a bagno as a bagno?
04:44And that's how it was.
04:45And then there was the Covid, and we gave us some passes.
04:48And our husbands also gave us a fight.
04:50And we were angry, we went on and we won.
04:54Until then, it was run by men.
05:00In general, the Lidos are dominated by men.
05:03Of the 250 bagni, number 17 is the only one that is run exclusively by women.
05:10Of course, being all men and women, we came here.
05:17They looked at us a bit like this, to say,
05:21if we have a close friend who wants us a great good.
05:39The three of them come up with lots of ideas for their guests.
05:42They offer aqua gymnastics, sometimes there is watermelon,
05:46and always lots of cordiality.
05:49No matter how hot it is, they are always on the move.
06:19Every day, there is a problem, but it is beautiful.
06:22This is the most beautiful bagno.
06:24Hey!
06:25Hey!
06:26Hey!
06:27Hey!
06:28Hey!
06:29Hey!

06:44Hey!
06:45Many sea turtles have found a home along the Adriatic coast.
06:49Now,
07:04Hey!
07:05must surface regularly.
07:15As turtles are often injured by fishing nets and boats,
07:18turtle centers have been established along the Adriatic coast.
07:28One of them is located near the dense
07:30beech pine forest in Marina di Ravenna, in the building
07:34of the former fish market.
07:39Marine biologist Sara Segati founded the Cesta Center in 2014.
07:44Kitra the tortoise is difficult to tame, a sign that she has recovered well.
07:51Kitra the tortoise is difficult to tame, a sign that she has recovered well.
07:58Kitra the tortoise is difficult to tame, a sign that she has recovered well.
08:08Kitra is a loggerhead turtle, a species that is considered endangered and is protected.
08:20Kitra was brought in by a fisherman. She had fallen into his net as bycatch.
08:25Kitra is a loggerhead turtle.
08:35Kitra was brought in by a fisherman. She had fallen into his net as bycatch.
08:37Kitra is a loggerhead turtle.
08:40At the bottom of the sea, instead of breathing air, because they can't go back to the surface to do the exchange,
08:47they breathe water and their lungs collapse.
08:50When it comes to the center, it's almost in the end of life.
08:54We have kept it for 48 hours outside of the water, in a inclined position, to help her liberate the lungs.
09:02Then, we have cured it with aerosol and antibiotic, and now she's ready to go home.
09:09After about three months in hospital.
09:14Marine biologist Linda Albonetti treats Kitra once again with a special oil before releasing her.
09:28It's a mix of essential oils, which are anti-batterical and anti-fungine,
09:32and works as a protective film on the carapace of the tartaruga,
09:36both in Vasca and in nature, where Kitra will soon be liberated.
09:44Now Kitra is ready.
09:46As soon as the other animals have been looked after, Sara will take her out to sea.
09:51She has been in hospital for over three years.
09:55A ship's propeller severed her shell and injured her spine.
10:00Her hind flippers have been paralyzed ever since.
10:03Sara and Linda do physiotherapy every day to keep the turtle mobile.
10:08It will be some time before Cenera is ready for a life in freedom.
10:22Sara had never seen such a serious injury on a live turtle before.
10:27The first months were really very angry.
10:33Sometimes, inevitably, you took her from the basket and put her together
10:39because you were afraid of something to happen.
10:43From not knowing if we would be able to save her,
10:48to see her like this today,
10:50the heart is filled with joy.
10:53All the sacrifices and sacrifices,
10:55even in the night, made to help her,
10:58it pays you every day to see her.
11:02Then, her strength is beyond the limits of imagination.
11:07A replacement shell from the 3D printer saved Cenera's life.
11:12Con this carapace here, Cenera could enter in contact with the water
11:15and therefore, his organs would be completely distressed
11:18and not suffer from gravity.
11:20But, at the same time, the wounds that needed to breathe
11:24had two buckets to continue to be oxygenated
11:28and be able to slowly close it.
11:31It worked,
11:32because now Cenera is completely closed and autonomous.
11:37Marine biologist, Simone D'Acunto,
11:41runs the center together with Sara.
11:44They are currently treating 25 injured animals.
11:47They usually work in pairs,
11:58as sea turtles do not like to be touched
12:01and will try anything to get back into the water.
12:05Most turtles are injured by boat propellers,
12:10pieces of plastic in the sea and large fishing nets.
12:15Amarena was caught in a net.
12:17She developed pneumonia.
12:24Sara and Simona work closely with a vet.
12:27The idea of the inhalation of the tartarughe
12:41is because the tartarughe,
12:42when they take a pulmonite,
12:44they don't know naturally react.
12:46In nature, it's difficult for a tartarughe.
12:48It's only a few.
12:49And so,
12:50to help spread the mucos that are generated in the lungs,
12:53we thought of doing what we do human beings,
12:56that is,
12:57fluimucil,
12:58clenil,
12:59all those elements that help spread it.
13:09Now the time has come.
13:11After three months in the turtle hospital,
13:13Kitra is allowed to return to the wild.
13:16Simo, we can go.
13:26Sara and Simona are moored with their boat
13:29in the harbor of Marina di Ravenna,
13:31right next to some fishermen
13:32with whom they work closely.
13:38They travel far out to sea to release the turtles.
13:41Over the past four years,
13:43Sara and her team have been able
13:45to release more than 250 sea turtles
13:49back into the Adriatic.
13:51It is a special moment for them,
13:53every time.
13:57It's the heart that hits you a thousand
13:59because you hope, first of all,
14:01that everything goes well.
14:15I am happy.
14:18Bye-bye.
14:21Bye-bye?
14:23Bye-bye?
14:23Let's go.
14:24Bye.
14:25Bye-bye.
14:26Bye-bye.
14:28Bye-bye.
14:29Today I'm going to the seventh sky because the tartaruga has fought for her life and is ready to go home.
14:59The river Bevano flows not far from the coast. It connects the wetlands at the southern foothills of the Po Delta Park with the Adriatic Sea.
15:10Fisherman Antonio Moriti knows the area very well. He fishes in the sea for a living and is out and about in the wetlands because he is interested in algae such as the edible sea lettuce.
15:23Algae are actually very good CO2 reservoirs. However, they thrive so abundantly in the nutrient rich water that they often become a nuisance, obstructing fishing boats and releasing all the carbon dioxide when they die.
15:40Many cooperatives and many fishers have to spend money to remove these algae from the water, to be able to fish fish, to be able to fish fish.
15:53But we try to bring a solution to a problem that in reality should not be a problem, because algae are only a resource.
16:04Antonio has started studying marine biology to learn all about algae. He is currently preparing a pilot project to inhibit the natural growth of algae in the river. To do this, he wants to set up an algae farm in one part of the river.
16:20Antonio was allowed to set up some tanks at the Bevanella Visitor Center in the Po Delta Park. Among other things, he is trying to get the water from the river.
16:41He is trying to find out under which conditions the algae grows best. One indicator of good growth is a low nitrate content in the water, as many algae species use nitrate for their growth.
17:02Antonio has teamed up with researchers from various European universities. They want to work together in a large transnational network.
17:11We can also cover some packages with algae into the swamp.
17:14We want to and to put them together in a large water system
17:19with algae. We want to make them in a large batch. We want to go to the species.
17:23We want to use them in cosmetic, to utilize them in pharmaceuticals, to use them in pharmaceuticals as integrators,
17:28and also to try to extract some components from the algae.
17:34To transform them into toys to the material or to make them in paper.
17:37The beautiful thing is that with the alga you can do almost everything.
17:47Antonio is one of the fishermen who are concerned about the health of the sea.
17:55He is taking part in a project run by marine biologist Carlotta Santolini.
18:01She is investigating the effects of rising temperatures in the Adriatic.
18:05To this end, she interviews fishermen and gets a first-hand impression on-site.
18:13Since the last ten years, when you have started fishing,
18:17you have noticed the presence of new species,
18:20or the species that fish are different?
18:23Yes, I have noticed.
18:25First of all, a smaller amount of species for us,
18:28and then I have noticed a presence of alien species,
18:33for example, the granchio blu,
18:35many meduses of different species,
18:37and also many algas.
18:40With the currents, the algas that are removed from the bottom,
18:43they end up because of the currents,
18:46right within the bertavelli.
18:48Therefore, they are filled with algas,
18:50and the seppia is not able to enter.
18:52If the cuttlefish no longer enter the net,
18:56the fishermen lose an important source of income.
18:59Antonio is currently looking for ways to turn the seaweed
19:03into a resource for the fishermen.
19:05The sea is undergoing extreme changes due to climate change.
19:16This keeps fishermen and researchers like Carlotta busy.
19:20What I really like is to interview the fishermen,
19:23talk to them,
19:25so that I can know in real time what are the changes.
19:32As a biologist, my goal is to try to help our sea,
19:37and in general, our ecosystem,
19:39so that to be able to understand
19:41what species are present in our sea,
19:44our sea can help us understand
19:46how we can help our sea to survive in this cold.
20:00Carlotta is working on a transnational project
20:03supported by the EU,
20:05in which divers are also invited to record their observations
20:08in order to obtain as comprehensive a picture as possible
20:12of the changes in the Mediterranean.
20:22Higher temperatures increase the number of jellyfish, for example.
20:26The Venus Belt and Cassiopeia feel very comfortable in warmer waters.
20:36Just like the gilt-head sea bream,
20:38for some time now researchers have been looking for ways
20:41to process other fish species,
20:43and even jellyfish, into delicacies.
20:49My hope is that, in reality,
20:51it's happening slowly and slowly,
20:53and it's that of being able to understand
20:55to Italians, in general,
20:57and to all the world,
20:58that we shouldn't be afraid of changing,
21:01and that, even if there are these species now,
21:03and if you eat these,
21:05rather than the usual species,
21:07it helps only the environment,
21:09because in this way it creates the balance.
21:13This is exactly what Antonio wants to achieve
21:16with his seaweed project.
21:20The seaweed that repeatedly ends up in his nets
21:22is considered a delicacy when deep-fried, for example,
21:26and is also considered healthy.
21:34A half-hour drive from Rimini
21:36is the former fishing village of Cesenatico.
21:40It has developed into a popular seaside resort.
21:42Cesenatico is best known for its historic canal,
21:53which connects the town to the sea.
22:01At the end of the canal are numerous historic boats,
22:05some of which are part of the floating section
22:08of the Cesenatico Maritime Museum.
22:12Their sails were brightly colored,
22:14so that they could also be seen in the fog,
22:17and their symbols made it possible to identify
22:20which boat belonged to which fishing family.
22:23Andrea Foschini's sailing vessel is moored
22:40in the port of Cesenatico.
22:42The boat requires a little bit of care
22:51and attention to it, so that it can be maintained.
22:55Today, it is the most sustainable material
22:58that we have available.
23:00We don't put anything away from this material.
23:02We use practically all the parts
23:06and even with the truciolo,
23:08we can heat up with the pellet.
23:19Andrea develops boat-building courses
23:21for anyone who wants to build their own wooden boat.
23:25It's easier than many people think.
23:27Andrea also regularly visits traditional shipyards.
23:41His namesake, Andrea Foschini,
23:44is the name of Andrea Foschini.
23:47Andrea also regularly visits traditional shipyards.
23:52His namesake, Andrea Foschini,
23:56is one of the last masters of wooden boat building
23:59on the Italian Adriatic.
24:01He is currently building a ferry.
24:04Andrea is also responding to a current trend
24:06with his courses.
24:07I organize these courses
24:09because I'm the most popular one.
24:11I'm the most popular one.
24:13I'm the most popular one.
24:14I'm the most popular one.
24:16Andrea is also responding to a current trend
24:18with his courses.
24:19I organize these courses
24:21because there are many people
24:23who want to learn about this work
24:25and would like to do a job tomorrow tomorrow.
24:27Because we have a history tradition
24:30of many years
24:32and because here,
24:33we are still building
24:34with the traditional methodologies
24:36that are traditional.
24:38Everything is handmade.
24:40Everything is made of wood.
24:42From the small yacht
24:43to this 350 passenger ferry
24:46that will be used on the Trieste-Mugia route.
24:54Many shipyards have switched to plastic
24:56because of the shorter production times
24:58and lower prices.
25:00Andrea and his brother Ulisse
25:02continue to build with wood.
25:04The water's characteristics
25:05are better
25:19because the boat is more elastic,
25:21it is more hot,
25:22it has many characteristics
25:23that the other materials do not have.
25:25We are going on with this philosophy
25:27because, first of all,
25:29we like to work on this material.
25:30It takes a year and a half
25:45to build
25:46and a lot of patience
25:47before the first test drive.
25:49Andrea is an engineer
25:59and teaches the courses
26:00in his spare time
26:01to encourage people
26:02to build sustainable boats
26:04and thus preserve the traditions
26:06of their homeland.
26:08In Cesenatico,
26:11like Rimini,
26:12they are the suburbs
26:13that we have on our coast
26:15that have,
26:18one of the part,
26:19the tourist part
26:20but, one of the other,
26:21they have a lot of history,
26:23traditions
26:24and culture
26:25to tell.
26:26From all the historical boats
26:29in these suburbs
26:31we still breathe this area here.
26:33on beautiful summer evenings
26:40with a light wind,
26:42the Cesenaticensi
26:43take their boats out to sea.
26:49Newer boats,
26:50such as Andrea's
26:51little white nutshell,
26:52are also welcome.
26:54The fact of going out
26:55and going to the sea
26:56are always beautiful.
26:58Then,
26:59when you're in the company
27:00of boats
27:01that have a history
27:02it's a double emotion.
27:04So,
27:05I believe that today
27:06is a great day.
27:07It's a great day.
27:32South of Cesenatico
27:37and Rimini
27:39lies the Marke region.
27:41Here,
27:42the Adriatic coast
27:43becomes rougher,
27:44more rugged
27:45and lonelier.
27:57The Marke region
27:58is known for its
27:59impressive landscapes.
28:01The picturesque
28:02coastal mountain
28:03Monte San Bartolo
28:04is a nature park
28:06that is best explored
28:07on foot
28:08or by bike.
28:21Landscape experts
28:22Olivia Neschi
28:24and Laura Valentini
28:25explore the coastal system
28:27of Monte San Bartolo.
28:29They offer interested
28:30laypeople
28:31the opportunity
28:32to explore
28:33the geology
28:34of the mountain landscape
28:35with them.
28:36They prepare geotrails
28:37for this purpose.
28:46Olivia checks whether the soil
28:48has only been removed superficially
28:50or whether the underlying rock
28:52has also been loosened
28:53which could lead to major
28:55dangerous landslides
28:56in the next storm.
28:57It's just a degraded sand
28:59that is typical
29:00of the soil
29:01and so
29:03it's okay.
29:04The big rains
29:06have caused
29:07some frantic movements
29:08so we have to control
29:09before bringing people
29:10to visit
29:12the Monte San Bartolo.
29:13people to visit
29:14the Monte San Bartolo.
29:16Here we are
29:17in the
29:18most external
29:19and east
29:20of the Penninica
29:22chain
29:23which is a chain
29:24that is
29:25a chain
29:26with
29:27moved
29:28to the Adriatic.
29:29It's very interesting
29:31because
29:32there is
29:33an interaction
29:34between the Penninica
29:35and the sea.
29:40The sea carries
29:41material away
29:42from the coast
29:43and the slopes
29:44change
29:45due to landslides
29:46so the shape
29:47of the mountain
29:48never stays the same.
29:55An important concern
29:56of the scientists
29:57is to use
29:58their geotrails
29:59to strengthen
30:00people's sense
30:01of belonging
30:02and responsibility
30:03for nature.
30:06This place
30:07is beautiful,
30:08fascinating,
30:09has an intrinsic beauty
30:11for nature.
30:12The geologists
30:13don't just talk about
30:26the beauty and vulnerability
30:28of nature
30:29on guided hikes
30:30at various locations
30:31in the Marque region.
30:32They have also published a book
30:33and developed a series of lectures.
30:35at these events,
30:36they combine scientific topics
30:37and critical thoughts
30:38on the discretion of the environment
30:39by humans with art.
30:40by humans with art.
30:41by humans with art.
31:12by humans with art.
31:13by humans with art.
31:15byının банal
31:17night.
31:18So we have created
31:19a multidisciplinary project
31:20where science
31:21and scientificơi
31:22distribuisce
31:23with the language
31:24of poetry
31:25For the lecture on Monte San Bartolo, Laura has chosen a composition by George Friedrich
31:36Handel, which for her emphasizes the liveliness and fragility of the mountain landscape.
31:55I really like the sea and its strong flavors, and then the ones from the beach.
32:09Harpsichord maker Roberto Livi is on the lookout for seagull feathers.
32:14He usually has good luck on the beach at Gabice Mare, at the foot of Monte San Bartolo.
32:21I started to build clavicembali using penne of oak, but then I had the idea to try to change,
32:35because the fact of waiting for the penne of oak, the fact of me to agree with the contadino
32:41because he gave me penne after having killed the oak, that was something that made me sad.
32:47And then I preferred to go to the search of the penne that are found on the beach.
32:57You can't see the gull feathers in a finished harpsichord, but they have an elementary function.
33:03That's why Roberto needs a lot of them.
33:06The walks are a welcome change for Roberto, because he usually works alone in his home.
33:13The walks are a welcome change for Roberto, because he usually works alone in his home.
33:19He is currently building his 50th harpsichord.
33:26The harpsichord played a particularly important role in the Baroque period and later in the Renaissance.
33:34Roberto restores historical harpsichords and builds new instruments based on historical models using the materials that instrument makers used in the past.
33:49For the current harpsichord, he has already sawn out the so-called wooden jumpers into which the seagull quills are inserted.
34:08The penne is used to obtain the pletro.
34:14The pletro is what, for example, a guitarist or a mandolinist who uses to push the strings.
34:22He uses one only to play the instrument.
34:27In this case, a clavicembalo has a pletro for each string.
34:31In this instrument there are 180 strings.
34:34So we need 180 strings.
34:38The gull feather quills are very suitable as picks because they are strong and flexible at the same time.
34:45It takes five months to finish an instrument.
35:04After that, Roberto keeps it in the workshop for some time.
35:09With the time, the instrument changes.
35:21It develops a brass.
35:25It happens that after about six months, it reaches the maximum of the sound.
35:31And I say, what a beautiful instrument I've made.
35:34I'm really happy.
35:36The highest mountain in the Marque region is Monte Conero.
35:45It rises around 572 meters above the Adriatic Sea.
35:50With its steep cliffs and bays that can only be reached on foot or by boat,
35:55it is one of the most impressive landscapes on the coast.
35:58The rock formations Due Sorel, the two sisters, are a landmark of the region.
36:07They got their name because their shape reminded someone, with a lot of imagination,
36:12of two nuns looking at each other.
36:17The heart of this diverse landscape is the Conero Nature Park.
36:26It was founded in 1987 to protect the unique nature and biodiversity of the region.
36:37The nature park is home to a wide variety of plant and animal species.
36:43Foxes, voles, and even a wolf are at home here.
36:59Monte Conero is a fascinating testimony to the constant interplay between land and sea.
37:06Around five million years ago, it rose out of the Adriatic Sea.
37:11The sea then reclaimed part of the area through erosion.
37:16What remains is an approximately 800 meter long natural mole, Il Trave.
37:23It shows how far the mountains once reached into the sea.
37:28The beaches of Le Marche are becoming increasingly popular and crowded.
37:41Those looking for peace and quiet after a noisy day by the sea will find it, for example, in Grottamare Alta,
37:52the historic part of the town of Grottamare located on a hill.
38:03The medieval atmosphere of the narrow streets and small squares invites you to linger,
38:09not far from the hustle and bustle of the beach, and yet as if it had fallen out of time.
38:22It is not far from Grottamare to San Benedetto del Tronto.
38:26The seaside resort looks back on a long fishing tradition.
38:30Some of the sculptures in the Open Air Museum are reminiscent of the time when seafaring was even more dangerous than it is today,
38:38and families waited anxiously for their loved ones to return from the high seas.
38:43Even today San Benedetto del Tronto is an important place for fishing and also for marine biology.
39:08Researcher Martina Capriotti is investigating microplastic pollution in the Adriatic Sea.
39:14To do this, she needs a special device called a manta trawl.
39:19The manta is a training tool to capture microplastics,
39:26which are on the surface of the water.
39:28In fact, many plastic polymers have a smaller density than the sea density.
39:37The manta trawl gets its name because it is reminiscent of a manta ray.
39:44Martina was born in San Benedetto del Tronto.
39:50This shaped her career aspirations.
40:05This shaped her career aspirations.
40:08The Adriatic Sea has always had a particular meaning for me.
40:13It's here that I've learned to swim.
40:16And that's how I was about to explore the marine marine land.
40:23And it was just during the childhood, when I started to see the beauty of the underwater world,
40:29and especially the impact of human beings under the water,
40:33that I realized that the oxygen being helped me to study marine biology.
40:40Today Martina, with the help of boatman Marco Maresi, is taking some samples for a larger
41:03study she is preparing.
41:05Several million tons of microplastic particles are floating in the seas and oceans.
41:11They're created for example when plastic waste decomposes and are contained in cosmetics,
41:16cleaning agents, fishing and other products.
41:23With the manta trawl, Martina catches everything that swims on the surface of the sea.
41:31The danger of microplastics for the health of the oceans is the subject of intensive research
41:36worldwide.
41:37Marine life ingests it with their food and later, humans do too.
41:42During an earlier analysis, Martina made a worrying discovery.
41:47The microplastic particles absorb toxic substances floating in the sea.
41:52These include pollutants that have a similar chemical structure to the body's own hormones,
41:58with far reaching consequences.
41:59An interesting aspect of these toxic substances is their way to act.
42:06These compounds have the ability to mimic the hormones or to interfere, to create disturbance
42:13in the hormone system of an organism, such as human beings or the organism of many marine animals.
42:20In the previous studies, in this cocktail of contaminants that we extracted from microplastics,
42:34we found these compounds obesogenes, because they have the ability to mediate some processes
42:43that are based on obesity and therefore, in general, the metabolic balance of an organism.
42:49The manta's sieve is so fine that it catches many particles that are so small that they
43:05can no longer be seen with the naked eye.
43:12Today's sample gives the researcher a first impression of the microplastic concentration
43:17in the selected area.
43:24Martina wants her work to help us understand how great the danger posed by these tiny particles is.
43:31Ancora non si conoscono gli effetti o il livello di pericolosità sulla salute dell'uomo.
43:49In addition to her research, Martina is committed to preventing plastic waste in the
43:55society.
43:56In addition to her research, Martina is committed to preventing plastic waste in the
43:58society.
43:59She organizes workshops with children to show them how many plastic particles pollute even
44:06natural beaches.
44:08beaches.
44:09In this way she wants to awaken in them an early desire to protect the environment.
44:15In addition to her research, Martina is committed to preventing plastic waste in the sea.
44:22in this way she wants to help with the water.
44:23in this way she wants to awaken in them an early desire to protect the environment.
44:29awaken in them an early desire to protect the environment.
44:49Olga Anibale is also committed to protecting the sea.
44:53She is one of the driving forces behind the Parco Marino del Piceno.
44:58The aim is to declare the area, which includes the overfished coast of San Benedetto del
45:03Tronto and Grotta Mare, a marine reserve.
45:08Together with her colleague Beppe Palma, she is looking for ways to permanently protect
45:12the habitat of marine animals.
45:14An marine marine is extremely important.
45:19The presence of areas where it is not vietable, but a sustainable gestion is essential, because
45:31this would allow the commercial species to grow and to take care of themselves.
45:38We have seen in various other examples, both in Adriatic and not, that this happens,
45:45and it happens not in a long time.
45:51In other marine protected areas such as the one in Trieste, fish stocks have recovered to
45:56such an extent that fish are even migrating out of the protected zones and fishermen are
46:02able to catch more overall.
46:08Despite this, fishing associations are trying to prevent the creation of a protected area
46:12because they fear financial losses.
46:15However, some fishermen are now working with Olga, including Elvio Mazzagufo.
46:20Elvio?
46:21Elvio!
46:23Come vai?
46:26Come vai, pescatu belle?
46:29Quattro seppie, una trillina e due mormore!
46:33Va bene, fa il brodetto dai!
46:36Sì!
46:37Ci vediamo dopo, eh?
46:38Okay!!
46:40Ciao!
46:41Elvio è uno dei pescatori lungimiranti, quindi lui è pronto a questa sfida di
46:49to make our fishing more sustainable,
46:54which means not limitations,
46:56but also a sustainability that can go
47:00in favor of the environment and in favor of them.
47:10The sea is of everyone and of everyone.
47:12It has never been seen as something to cure.
47:15It has always been used and just enough.
47:19So, the marine protected area is essential.
47:40In Abruzzo, south of the Marche region,
47:43a section of coastline has been placed under nature protection.
47:49Numerous birds have found a home in the Reserva Naturale di Punta Aderci,
48:01among them the rare Kentish plover.
48:06If you were a kid involved in the Reserva to the eggs沒有,
48:11then you will get yourself свaced in the sea of Baza and others.
48:13The bird has got their ellos as well as the young bird has been
48:18in a land, the whole country has found their own niche.
48:20The living model of this bird was just in a garden,
48:23but they were present at the garden's garden.
48:25They ...
48:26And ...
48:27So, there are ...
48:28This is the potential of the one we are getting into a garden,
48:29but they are built in the garden.
48:30If you have to be a garden about this garden,
48:31then you will have to be a garden for the garden.
48:32Researchers Vania Mancinelli and Enrico Miccadei are investigating the geological composition
48:41of the natural beach. The adjacent port of the town of Vasto is to be expanded. They're
48:47investigating how this could affect the bay.
48:51The two of them draw up a precise map of the nature of the landscape and the ground.
49:00For the expansion of the port, we have to know the type of rocks we find in going to excavate.
49:06It's a very, very delicate system from the environmental perspective.
49:11So the geomorphic map is very important to work well.
49:19Vania and Enrico are not only concerned with the nature to be protected, but also use the
49:25surfaces, rocks and stones to identify whether, for example, ground subsidence or
49:30events could occur during the work and thus lead to possible excavator accidents.
49:35In addition to their work at the University of Chieta Pescara, they also offer safety assessments
49:40for construction projects, such as ports and tunnels, but they're not always asked in time.
49:46For giving to the geologist, it would be important to work as healthcare as a prevention
49:54issue is not to be WhatsApp, as we always say then.
50:00No, we need to change our mentality and think about the geologist to prevent it.
50:18Protecting the dunes from encroachment is particularly important to the researchers.
50:24The dunes are the salvage of the beach.
50:27When we have a big storm, when we have a big erosion, the dunes create its balance with the beach, with the sea.
50:39We often, especially on the Adriatic coast, which has so many beaches,
50:45we expand them for tourism.
50:48It's a great environmental error.
50:50So the dunes is a system that is preserved.
50:57If their research shows that an expansion of the port would endanger the dunes,
51:02Enrico and Vanya will advise against it, so that this beautiful nature reserve can be preserved for a long time to come.
