 Eco-beaches in the province of Rimini., Italy, EcoConsigli, Holidays ,EcoComunicazione

Sensitivity and love for the environment are the main theme of eco-beaches born in 2003 thanks to some lifeguards and the Province of Rimini. And there are many initiatives proposed. Among these, until July 30, 2008, ecospiagge (here is the list of those who have joined) to give customers the energy saving kit consisting of:

3-saving light bulbs energetic
4 reducing flow (or rompigetto)
1 borsina completely biodegradable MaterBi

But this is not just welcome gifts. A beach to be called eco must meet certain standards that are powering with photovoltaic panels (see photo will see an example); collection; environmental education; saving water. Thanks to the contribution of the Province of Rimini, in the biennium 2003-2005 were carried out 20 water systems for the recovery of drinking water used by showers that after being filtered is reused in toilets and to irrigate.

As stated in the website:

This good practice ecologist has allowed us to save over 5,000 cubic metres of water, in other words a tower base 1 mt x 1 metres high 5,000 meters (5 km) of drinking water.

Maharashtra Village Sets Example of Drought Management
Posted in Uncategorized on 21 June 2008

Dhangharwadi, a small village in Yavatmal district of Maharashtra (India) has set a fine example of self-empowerment by reviving their water channels and boosting their agricultural produce. The district known to be a drought–prone area had reported highest number of farmer’s suicide owning to perpetual lack of rains. One of the villages here, Dhangharwadi is now lush green once again thanks to the initiatives taken by the farmer’s along with the efforts of Dilasa- a local NGO. Earlier the villagers could hardly produce agricultural yield enough to feed their own families. Today, they are enjoying the fruits of a bumper crop. Two years ago, villagers in association with Dilasa had built two check dams with the objective of harvesting water from a near-by percolation tank (useless since 1972). While Yavatmal district has no dearth of tanks meant for storing rain water, their underutilization, poor maintenance by the authorities and lack of water transport structures has contributed to the drought conditions. Determined to change their situation, the villagers along with the support of NGO, built two check dams and resurrected the practice of local lift irrigation. Further, to facilitate transport of water to the interiors of village, a network of shallow canals called fuds was created. Such a network flows along the contours of land and checks soil erosion by slowing down the speed of water. It also helps in percolation of water during rainy season.
Improvement in agricultural situation has positively affected other spheres of these villagers, who belong to sheep-rearing nomadic community. Thus, one step taken towards self – empowerment has brought happiness in the lives of these people. Dhangharwadi’s example, is just one of many such instances where, the poor farmers and villagers have come out of their shells and taken the matter into their hands. Thus, giving out a strong message to lazy officials that, given guidance and resources, villagers can become effective perpetrators of the participatory development approach.
