Hello everybody! I’m a student living and studying in south Italy. As you might already know, there have been a few protests made by Ultima Generazione (Brutally translated: Last Generation) which have been object of debate and disputes (and mostly critiques)...
There isn't such a phenomenon in my country, perhaps because there is more or less environmental awareness due to the waste crisis we dealt with couple of years ago, and the government and parliament's role in exacerbating it. There were nationwide protests even. Yet the awareness didn't go beyond trash disposal back then. As long as we hid our debris behind walls, the environment would be fine!
However, the last two years were different. We successfully protested against building a harmful dam, heavily invested in green energy, and climate change was at last acknowledged as the reason for this year's horrendous weather (it only began to rain in the spring, which harmed crops).
Don't put too much hope on apartment buildings. My country is plagued with buildings since it's a passive source of income for wannabe landlords. In the last twenty years the entire coast was cluttered with concrete blocks and the countryside is witnessing a similar trend.
As long as population is uncontrollably accruing due to artificial economic growth, no solution will be adequate enough.
While those suburbs you have in America are a nightmare, this poster is too simplistic to give you a full picture of the situation.
As far as I know they drastically changed the book details page without consulting the users who, shocker, aren't happy with it. That was a couple of months ago.

This is a book that I had put on my reading list a few years ago but couldn't tackle until last month. If I were to read it sooner, I wouldn't have known how to respond to the author's arguments with anything other than contempt and unjustified hostility....
