Roberto Della Seta
Comitato per la Fondazione Europa Ecologia
I was born in Rome in 1959. I have two passions that became also my occupation: the environment and history. Former coordinator of the scientific committee and then (from 2003 to 2007) national president of Legambiente. From 2008 to 2013 I was a member of Parliament, elected in the Senate with the Democratic Party and there group leader in the Environment Commission. In 2013 I founded together with Francesco Ferrante "Greening Marketing Italia", a company that collaborates with companies and other private subjects determined to be characterized by environmental quality, green and circular economy. I’m the president of Europa Ecologia Foundation, committed to spread and enhance in Italy European practices of green economy and policies. I have written various essays on the history of ecological ideas, of the ecological movement, of urbanistic ideas, of italian idea of patriotism: among these “I suoli di Roma” (1988), “La difesa dell’ambiente in Italia” (1999), “Dizionario del pensiero ecologico” (2007), “Patria. Un’idea per il nostro futuro” (2011), “La sinistra e la città” (2013).
