M’ILLUMINO DI MENO 2008 Giornata Internazionale del Risparmio Energetico. www.caterueb.rai.it



M’ILLUMINO DI MENO 2008
Giornata Internazionale del Risparmio Energetico
ADERISCI ANCHE TU!

Cari Amici,

in occasione della Giornata Internazionale del Risparmio Energetico la Tavola della pace ha aderito a "M'ILLUMINO DI MENO 2008", l'iniziativa giunta alla sua quarta edizione e promossa da Caterpillar, il noto programma di Radio2 in onda tutti i giorni dalle 18 alle 19.30. Invitiamo tutti, singoli, associazioni, gruppi e enti locali, ad aderire e promuovere l'iniziativa.

La giornata da segnare nelle agende è il 15 febbraio 2008 e se saremo, come negli anni passati, in tanti ad aderire M'illumino di meno sarà una nuova grande giornata di mobilitazione internazionale in nome del risparmio energetico.
Dopo il successo delle passate edizioni, Cirri e Solibello, i conduttori di Caterpillar, chiederanno nuovamente ai loro ascoltatori di dimostrare come il risparmio sia una possibilità concreta e reale a cui attingere oggi stesso per superare i problemi energetici che assillano il nostro paese e gran parte delle nazioni del pianeta. L’invito rivolto a tutti è quello di spegnere le luci e tutti i dispositivi elettrici non indispensabili il 15 febbraio 2008 dalle ore 18. Semplici cittadini, scuole, aziende, musei, gruppi multinazionali, astrofili, società sportive, gruppi scout, istituzioni, associazioni di volontariato, università, cral aziendali, ristoranti, negozianti e artigiani uniti per diminuire i consumi in eccesso e mostrare all’opinione pubblica come un altro utilizzo dell’energia sia possibile.

Nelle precedenti edizioni M’illumino di meno ha contagiato milioni di persone impegnate in un’allegra e coinvolgente gara etica di buone pratiche ambientali. Lo scorso anno il “silenzio energetico” coinvolse simbolicamente le piazze principali di tutt’Italia: a Roma il Colosseo, il Pantheon, la Fontana di Trevi, il Palazzo del Quirinale, Montecitorio e Palazzo Madama, a Verona l’Arena, a Torino la Basilica di Superga, a Venezia Piazza San Marco, a Firenze Palazzo Vecchio, a Napoli il Maschio Angioino, a bologna Piazza Maggiore, a Milano il Duomo e Piazza della Scala, a Pisa Piazza dei Miracoli, a Siena Piazza del Campo, a Catania Piazza del Duomo, ad Agrigento la Valle dei Templi, e centinaia di altre piazze altri comuni grandi e piccoli.

La campagna di M’illumino di meno 2008, anche quest’anno patrocinata dal Ministero dell’Ambiente, inizierà il 15 gennaio e si protrarrà per un mese fino al 15 febbraio (vigilia dell’anniversario dell’entrata in vigore del protocollo di Kyoto), dando voce al racconto delle idee più interessanti e innovative, in Italia e all’estero, per razionalizzare i consumi d’energia e di risorse, dai piccoli gesti quotidiani agli accorgimenti tecnici che ognuno può declinare a proprio modo per tagliare gli sprechi.
Per aderire basta andare sul sito internet del programma www.caterueb.rai.it e segnalare la propria adesione alla campagna, precisando quali iniziative concrete si metteranno in atto nel corso della giornata, in modo che le idee più interessanti e innovative servano da esempio e possano essere riprodotte.
Dopo il successo dell'edizione 2007, per il 2008 vorremmo coinvolgere anche la comunità internazionale nella campagna di sensibilizzazione, portando alla ribalta mediatica il tema del risparmio energetico con una concentrazione di spegnimenti simbolici senza precedenti in tutt'Europa. Per questo tutti i comuni e le istituzioni aderenti sono invitati a coinvolgere eventuali comuni gemellati all’estero nello spegnimento del 15 febbraio, ma anche le scuole e le associazioni che avessero contatti internazionali.

M’ILLUMINO DI MENO
Energy Saving Day

What is Energy Saving Day

Energy Saving Day is an annual Italian communication campaign dedicated to saving energy that was launched on February 16 th , 2005. Energy Saving Day is sponsored by the Ministry of the Environment, Protection of Land and Sea, and the Ministry of Agricultural since its third edition on February 16 th , 2007.

Why on February 16 th?

On the 16 th of February, 2005 the Kyoto Protocol, aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions from developed nations, came into force.

Who started the Energy Saving Day?

The initiative was first launched by Caterpillar, a popular and successful live radio program which reaches more than a million listeners per day. Caterpillar is broadcast by Radio2, the entertaining channel of RAI, the Italian Public Service Broadcaster. The program debuted on January 17 th , 1997. The program airs from 6pm to 7:30pm, Monday to Friday. Caterpillar deals with major issues and themes in the world in an informal and ironic way which aims at underlining contradictions and paradoxes in our society.

What is Energy Saving Day about?

Energy Saving Day

The day's philosophy is to convince as many people as possible to be dedicated to saving energy. It is asked that everybody reduce to the minimum of their own private energy use during the show's airtime from 6:00-7:30pm. By doing this the maximum visibility in the media and the largest participation by common people are concentrated on Energy Saving Day.
The most visible effect is created by the “energy silence” which consists in the symbolic turning-off of most important monuments and the main Italian city squares.
Institutions, general public, companies, shop-owners, schools, restaurants, gyms and any other kind of association will be participating in their own peculiar way: i.e. turning off shop window sign, computers or electronic equipment in laboratories, organizing candlelight dinners and so on.

Note: Being that February 16 th , 2008 is a Saturday the fourth Energy Saving Day will be held on Friday February 15 th , 2008. The main institutional sponsor will be the Italian Ministry of the Environment and Protection of Land and Sea. In 2008 Energy Saving Day aims to be an international experience.

The education campaign

A month before the event will take place, during Caterpillar radio programme it will be explained what we can do to contribute to the initiative and moreover, how by changing our routine energy habits we may effectively reduce waste. Good practices, suggestions, hints and initiatives to emulate are described on Caterpillar by scientists and by common people. Hints explained by experts and “grandma's remedies” involve the audience in a thrilling, ethical and environmental competition of good practices.

The aim

Contrast the changing global climate.
Reach the less educated citizens on environmental issues.
Talk about energy saving through media with spectacular turn-outs.
Stimulate people to participate in order to feel important that they have also given their own personal contribution to change their energy use.

How to participate

Switching off lights and all of the non-vital electrical devices on the Energy Saving Day from 6pm to 7:30pm.
Sharing, during the show's program, one's personal contribution to improve the use of energy and resources such as electricity, heating, fuel and water.
Listening to private or administration experiences that have saved on their own budget therefore reducing wastes.
Inserting and writing on the show's website your own way to participate.
Downloading and spreading available on-line material of the program site (advertisements, posters and dialogues on saving).

Participating examples

The President of the Italian Republic, the Presidents of the Senate of Italy and the President of the Chamber of Deputies have turned off the lights of their sites in Quirinale, Palazzo Madama and Montecitorio.
These are the town administrations of the most important Italian cities joined the campaign: Rome has turned off The Colosseum, Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain; in Milan, the Cathedral, Palazzo Marino and Piazza della Scala; in Turin, the Mole (remarkable the switch-off during the Torino 2006 Olympics Games in 2006) and the Superga Basilica; in Verona, the Arena; in Florence, Palazzo Vecchio; in Bologna, Piazza Maggiore; in Venice, Piazza San Marco; in Naples, the Maschio Angioino; in Siena, Piazza del Campo; in Catania, Piazza Duomo; in Palermo, Piazza Pretoria; in Agrigento, Valle dei Templi.
The British Embassy, in Rome, joined the campaign re-enforcing their “Think Green” initiative which has looked at every aspect of the Embassy's activities to improve its environmental performance.
Thousands of restaurant owners have organized candle-light dinners and have offered menus prepared using low energy consumption, this, in 2007, was encouraged by a specific statement by the Ministry of Agriculture.City Hall meetings, association meetings, and sport team's trainings have been held in the dark.
In schools, students have been appointed in charge of energy saving. Evaluations of the use of energy by the school buildings have been made. Education meetings and lectures on energy savings have been held, according to the classes' level.
In stores and shopping centers - the reduction of shop window's illumination and the distribution of free kits on saving water and electricity.

Initiative success

The participation and the media impact of the initiative has been growing on a yearly basis.
Real savings of the day (as measured by the National Electricity Network) in 2006 was reduced by the equivalent of the daily consumption of a city the size of Turin. In 2007, it was as if 5 million lamps had been turned-off!
Strong visibility reached through the media (national and local press, news and radio news) for the message of the urgent need to change our energy policies.
Prizes and awards in environment communication have been obtained by the radio program's staff for this initiative.
