This definition, coined by Paul Crutzen, winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, intends to stress the exceptional character of human intervention in the planet\u2019s natural systems: man is absolutely central to the Anthropocene, his actions capable of affecting factors such as the climate and the earth\u2019s surface, modifying their natural dynamics. Precisely in relation to this, the current process of transformation must be studied, learning to monitor and manage it as effectively as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>We consider our support in distributing this important report,<\/em>\u201d stated Luigi Lazzareschi, CEO of the Sofidel Group and Ambassador of the 50th Anniversary of WWF Italy, \u201c<em>a further decisive demonstration of our commitment to promote sustainable development.

Il gesto di ognuno, per il Pianeta di tutti<\/strong>\u201d (I\u2019ll take care of you: individual actions for everyone\u2019s planet) organised by the WWF to raise awareness of major environmental issues, which has recorded participation from more than 4,700 classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To date, Sofidel, between 2009 and 2015, has already reduced its direct CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions by 17,8%, through investments in energy efficiency and through the use of cogeneration systems and renewable energy sources. Other fundamental areas of activity concern the procurement of cellulose from certified and controlled sources (FSC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, PEFC\u2122, SFI\u2122), and safeguarding water resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, the Group\u2019s CEO, <strong>Luigi Lazzareschi<\/strong>, has been appointed <strong>Ambassador of the 50<sup>th <\/sup>anniversary of WWF Italy<\/strong> \u201cfor his constant attention to the issue of environmental sustainability and his firm commitment alongside the WWF Climate Savers programme\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With 5 million supporters, a presence in about 100 countries and more than 2,000 projects begun, the WWF\u00a0\u2013 World Wide Fund for Nature\u00a0\u2013 is the world\u2019s largest nature conservation organisation.
