Uomo e ambiente: la ricerca di un equilibrio tra conservazione e sfruttamento delle risorse
Il legno e l'uomo: tra passato e futuro la necessità di un uso consapevole.
Un percorso che racconterà la storia dell’uso del legno da parte dell’uomo dalla preistoria ai giorni nostri per comprendere l’importanza del muoversi con consapevolezza nell’utilizzo delle risorse della terra. Si scoprirà come il “governo” del bosco nelle comunità locali sia sempre stato momento di grande attenzione.
Dalla foresta al riscaldamento: sostenibilità e buone pratiche.
Partendo da alcune riflessioni relative al significato di impronta ecologica cercheremo di individuare quelli che sono i consumi energetici necessari per il funzionamento della propria casa e delle attività quotidiane.
L'attività didattica è dedicata alla conoscenza dell'ambiente palustre e dei suoi abitanti tra cui le zanzare.
