TIME TO TIME
Andrea Bertaglia
time, perhaps one of the most important resources in the world. Only those who have enough available could initiate a change in their lives. Only those who do not tighten the grip of consumerism and the labor frantic to meet expectations, can return to dedicate the time and energy necessary to surely the most valuable things such as children, family, friends, land, reading, studying ... love. Plenty of time can be confusing, even frightening. We are totally unaccustomed to having time, despite the alleged hyper-efficiency of all that surrounds us. Everyone should save us time, and everything in the end there since the ruba.Ci educate children not to have the time, nowadays, between school, homework, sports, and one thousand courses of various kinds. Moreover, we must constantly be engaged from the outset whether you want to be an adult tomorrow productive and efficient, totally unable to stop a moment to think, reflect, and ascoltare.Quante times have we heard or said,-I am sorry, but I do not have the time-? Or how many times we said? Time, this "commodity" increasingly scarce in our lives, is now exchanged for money to buy things that they usually need to be very little time that remains after godute.Il a working day is often spent watching television, we kindly propina a series of increasingly mediocre programs interspersed commercials more compelling and spectacular rise of the basic needs of our ever-renewed. The fact is that when these desires can not be satisfied (which is always more frequently in a state of decline and forced, for the moment, still unhappy), grows in people a feeling of frustration that leads, first of all not to enjoy what you have, and that leads us to do anything to get what We were literally programmed to volere.Ma after a hard day's work, I ask you now, who wants (and time) to get to talk, to participate in community life or even to think? Almost none, really. I know under what circumstances we find ourselves after several hours of traffic / work / traffic! But I also know, therefore, that the solution is to carve out time to work (as well as television and a myriad of activities more or less useless) rob us. And do not get me wrong here. My challenge is not to the work itself, a noble human activity, when we can make ourselves and our loved ones to live decently, when we do pay taxes necessary to ensure the basic services of our company where we can express our creativity and our potential. My criticism is aimed at two types of work including: the frantic work as an escape from self, and the frantic work as a means to satisfy needs that we have been led to have, and that most likely would never have heard of our own free will . What should we do then? With children to support, the mortgage more expensive to pay etc etc, as can get out of this spiral that keeps us prisoners? Well, first of all by reducing our needs. How? Realizing what is truly important (the children and the house rather than a new car every year or a phone every three months). And how can you account for what is truly important? Pause and reflect. But to afford this? It must have tempo.È a virtuous circle of their choices and their lives avviare.Difficilissimo what you need to put into practice, but possible. And perhaps indispensable.

SOS WATER FROM CALABRIA
public and I get a letter from Father Alex Zanotelli. This little man of God that mission seems to have chosen the world's landfills. From Korochoco in Naples, through the suburbs of our Italy.
the water situation in Italy and scandalous. A public good that is privatized and no politician does anything. Now it's up to us. Invormatevi in \u200b\u200byour common and realize who and because they control the water. Let's do it.
Here's the letter P. Alex and ask her to distribute and publish quickly.

WATER SOS
In the heart of this hot summer and this region of Calabria, working with young people in the cooperatives of the Bishop Brig (Locride) and the Ark of Noah (Cosenza), I come like a bolt from the blue, the news that the Berlusconi government provides water privatization. In fact, August 5, the Italian Parliament voted to Article 23a of Decree Law No. 112 of Minister G. Tremonti and the paragraph 1 states that the management of water services should be subject to the rules of the capitalist economy. All this with the support of the opposition, particularly the Democratic Party, in the person of its fee-shadow minister Lanzillotta. (A decision that angered me, but I am not surprised, given the response to the letter by Mr Veltroni on the water that I had sent him during the elections!)
So the Berlusconi government, with the consent of the opposition, declared that Italy is among the countries for which the 'Water is a commodity.
After these years of struggle against the privatization of water with many friends, with local committees and regional agreement with the Forum and the World '... water ... these stories are for me a punch in the stomach, it hurts. Questoè a betrayal by all the parties! Even more serious is the fact, noted by friends and R. Lembo R. Petrella, the "Decree amending nature State territoriali.I municipalities and communities, in particular, are no longer public land managers of the commons, but they become the subjects of property owners in a competitive logic of private interests, so that their first duty is to ensure that dividends of the company are the highest in the interest of municipal finances. "
We are also tearing apart our constitution!
concrete terms what does this mean? This is revealed by the tragic news we received from Aprilia (Latina) showing us what happens when the water ends up in private hands. Acqualatina (Veolia, the largest multinational water has 46.5% of shares.) that manages the water in April, decided in 2005 to increase bills by 300%! More than four families that year, they refuse to pay the bills to Acqualatina, paying instead for the Municipality. A long, hard struggle of resistance against the friends of Aprilia Acqualatina! Now in the middle of summer, Acqualatina sends its teams of armed vigilantes and policemen to remove the counters or reduce the water flow. All this with the approval of the City and the province of Latina! The goal? Forcing those who dispute to go to the counter of Acqualatina to pay.
It 's a heroic resistance and learn this in April: the people feel abandoned in itself. We can not leave them alone!
's summer also brings bad news from my Naples and the Campania region. The commissioner
the Budget of the City of Naples, Cardillo launches a proposal that will become operational in January 2009. L 'Arin, the municipal water of the City of Naples, will become a multi-service and a company that will include Napoligas Energy rinnovabili.Per to swallow the pill, Cardillo promised a Robintax "for the poor (lowest rates for the underprivileged classes). With the privatization of water will necessarily create a serious public A (the rich) and series B (the poor), as claimed by the economist M. Florio University of Milan.
these are bad news for the whole movement from Naples who in 2006 had forced 136 municipalities of ATO 2 to retrace their steps and to declare water as a common good. Instead of public water, the commissioner may prepare Cardillo is a nice treat for A2A (the multi-Brescia and Milan) or Veolia, should take over the management of waste from Campania? It would be a great triumph in Naples of economic-financial potentates.
To this we must add the serious news in Castellammare di Stabia (a town of a hundred thousand inhabitants in the province of Naples), 67 000 people have received, for the first time, the bills from Gori, (an APS of which 46% of actions is property of 'Acea, Rome). This in spite of the decisions of the City Council and the citizens who are fighting for years against Gori, which has now got their hands on the 76 municipalities Vesuvius (from Nola in Sorrento).
"You do not pay water bills!" Is the invitation of the local Committee to the families of Castellammare. It will also be here a long and difficult struggle, like that of Aprilia. I feel deeply hurt and betrayed by this news I am receiving a bit 'all over the world.
I wonder bitterly: "But where is the big push against water privatization that led to the collection of 400,000 signatures of support for the law of popular initiative water?
But what happens in our country? Why are we so still? Why is it so hard to make common cause with all the local struggles, confining our territories? Why not
Water Forum launches campaign on the Internet, to send thousands of solicitations to the Environment Committee of the House where he sleeps the law of popular initiative on water?
is not the time to appeal to the parliamentarians of all parties in Parliament to pass a framework law on water?
We must give us all a move to realize the dream with us and that is that water is a basic human right that must be managed by local communities with total public capital at the lowest possible cost to the user, without SPA.
"The water belongs to everyone and no one can be allowed to draw appropriate it for" illegal "profit-wrote the Archbishop Emeritus of Messina G. Marra.Pertanto asks that it is managed exclusively by the municipalities organized into a public company, which have always been the duty of ensuring the distribution for all at the lowest cost possible. "
When we hear such words from the Italian Episcopal Conference? When did take a position on an issue that means life or death for our classes, but especially for the weak impoverished in the world? (We will have millions of deaths from thirst!)
E 'as stated in the middle of this summer, July 16, Pope Benedict XVI: "With regard to water rights, it should be noted also that it is a right that has its basis in human dignity. From this perspective, we must carefully examine the attitudes of those who consider and treat water only as an economic good. "
When will our bishops will gain the necessary consequences for our country and involve all the parishes in a great movement in defense of water?
Water is life. "Water is sacred, not only because it is precious gift of the Creator, recently wrote the bishop of Caserta, Nogaro - but because every person is sacred, every man and woman on earth in the image of God who takes life by the water, energy and life. "
Waterfront We play everything!
Starting from the bottom, the fighting in defense of water at the local level, we share a great movement in that it requires the Parliament to proclaim that our water is not a commodity but a right for all.
Let's get to win because my life!
