Behind these reports there is a great and deep work, which often only very few can understand. Instead it should be translated into a simplified message, perhaps through comics, videos, slogans. In order to meet the habits of the public, especially young people, with greater use of social networks, for example. Because, unfortunately, the first problem is that people do not believe: that's why I think our job is to scare and inform”.

Among the reports, one will be published on September 2019 on about Oceans and seas. In the past we have identified critical issues and responsibilities, now we want to move on to a phase in which solutions will be proposed. The influence of man on climate change is now evident, just as it is equally clear that we must be able to make people understand that taking measures to protect the environment, using modern tools, can bring great benefits for the governments' economies. Since the first moment, IPCC wanted to highlight the need to do, not just to propose”.
