THE WHITE GOLD - THE MAJESTIC QUARRIES OF NORTHERN ITALY, Drone Footage

Beautiful, bizarre and severe. This is the incredible exchange between human and nature attested by the Apuan Alps marble quarries in Italy,  the 'origin' of some of the most important human operas, from Michelangelo's David until the Mecca and Medina Mosque. Directed for The New York Times Magazine, more at: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/26/magazine/the-majestic-marble-quarries-of-northern-italy.html?smid=fb-share

Wageningen University in the Netherlands is the most important agricultural university in the world and the epicenter of the agricultural innovation in Holland. Here is the Lumen building, one of the urban green design buildings which are part of the campus. How the future of sustainable farming could look like ? How the world is going to front the hunger crisis in the next decades ? Those questions brought me for @natgeo in the Netherlands to document this small country that has become an agricultural giant and it propose the most advanced high tech agro farming solutions to grow more with less.

Photo @lucalocatelliphoto The traditional landscape of Holland can be seen here, classical polders (reclaimed land) is a unique landmark of this country. Almost half of the country’s land has been reclaimed from the sea. The skill in handling water is one of the reason the Netherlands has become an agricultural giant and it propose the most advanced high tech agro farming solutions to grow more with less.

Flying over the Westland in the Netherlands, the most advanced area in the world for agro farming technology. Furrows of artificial light lend an otherworldly aura to the greenhouse. Climate-controlled farms such as these grow crops around the clock and in every kind of weather. #agriculture #westland #future #light #greenhouse #netherlands #vegetables #sustainable #organic #crops #technology

At Vattenfall’s Welzow-Süd mine in Germany, some of the world’s largest machines claw 22 million tons of coal a year from a 45-foot-thick seam. Burning coal emits large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Coal is composed almost entirely of carbon, so burning coal unleashes large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. These emissions have been shown to increase the greenhouse effect in the atmosphere and lead to global warming. #lignite #coal #globalwarming #unsustainable #climatechange #co2 #energytransition #energy #sustainableenergy #change
A mountain of burned coal in the open pit coal mine in Welzow-Süd mine, Germany. Renewables are booming in Germany, but use of lignite, the dirtiest coal, hasn’t declined. At Vattenfall’s Welzow-Süd mine, some of the world’s largest machines claw 22 million tons a year from a 45-foot-thick seam. Coal mining is still producing much of the energy needs of our planet. Production of energy is the main responsible for most of the pollution we create and for #climatechange #globalwarming Hope we can find better solution for the production of #energy in the future. #energytransition #unsustainable #coal #lignite
Photo @lucalocatelliphoto for @natgeo in Dubai, 2017. A local couple admiring the brand new Dubai Water Canal Waterfall. Dubai Canal is a project that was first envisioned by Sheikh Rashid, Dubai ruler's, and eventually realized because of Expo 2020 that Dubai will be hosting. One of the main themes for the fair will be Sustainability. Dubai wants to be green for many reasons–but the most powerful reason is simple economics. Dubai has to change if it has to stay competitive with other major cities around the world. This is good news for all of us,because if Dubai can become green, then the rest of the cities around the world will have no excuse.

Control room in a Soviet-era Nuclear power plant at Greifswald in eastern Germany. Since 1995, more than 1.000 workers are cleaning radioactive surfaces with steel grit so the metal can be recycled. Germany plans to shut all its reactors by 2022. #nuclearpower #energy #energytransition #future #technology #controlroom #globalwarming #climatechange #sustainableenergy
