This column, which usually discusses the limitations imposed on human activities to preserve the environment, takes a diversion dedicated to an obligation introduced for safety reasons in avalanche danger situations: that of carrying an Artva, shovel, and probe on snowy terrain throughout the Italian mountainous territory, not just in the parks.

On Saturday, December 3, 2024, an interesting report was broadcasted on Geo about the Orsiera Rocciavré Natural Park. The popular RAI program dedicated to the environment and its wonders narrated the story of a herb - thyme - and its multiple culinary and medicinal properties with its usual expertise, spiced up with spectacular shots inside the Protected Areas of the Cozie Alps.

A project involving ASL TO3, Ipla, the Experimental Zooprophylactic Institute of Piedmont, Liguria, and Valle d'Aosta, and the Parco Alpi Cozie with the aim of developing a new diagnostic test methodology to identify toxic plants.

The new calendar of the Cozie Alps Parks is dedicated to the silent invasion of plants and animals from distant countries, as usual illustrated with the watercolors by Elio Giuliano and Valentina Mangini with texts by Luca Giunti.
