among the problems that now affect the

our society

one of the most important is that of

try to always have activities

eco-friendly and environmentally friendly and the

our challenge or the challenge of the global is

that of trying to pass by

green economy green economy to that

blue economy in what this consists

passage the passage consists on the

fact that the green economy and an economy

which is definitely positive but has a

big issue

it costs a lot while the blue economy that

what you should look for

activate as soon as possible

it is the one with zero impact and zero

consumption is what it seeks ie

have everything using energy

of the earth then this kind of

power

obviously this type of activity must

be made also considering the

terrestrial resources but above all the

marine resources and is what the

our department anyway in the

our universities our institutes of

research knows they are trying to do now that

what is done in particular in the

particular we have done some

graphic campaigns and thalasso of the

monitoring campaigns that are

started more or less in 1984

they are still ongoing and have

highlighted the status of the resources of the

Sardinian seas and Italian seas al

mediterranean in general but to have

a greater idea to get an idea of ​​how

they are the resources

take for example some fish that

have been made knockdowns that

different fishing campaigns that are

were carried out

between 10 and 1000 meters depth

fished around 600 meters

as can be seen from these

slide are some draws that where

the commercial product is close to 80

percent then most of the

resources that are fished are

marketed therefore we say that the

waste of noble proteins is

relatively low but if you move

if you go deep minors around

at 400 meters you can see that the la

proportion changes and is exactly

the opposite, that is, between 20 and 30 per

one hundred is marketed and the rest

it happens lost normally it came

thrown back into the sea now with the new one

ministerial provisions should

be recovered and searched and converted

in feed and if it is

obviously always of noble proteins

dame again if you still go to levels

lower, that is, entering around towards

the 200 meters

so be it really if you are attending

really a waste of resources on

they are some catches that are around

1000 kg of product the product

commercial is around 10 20

children no more so it is obvious that

this is a waste but yes

assumes it also adds the fact that

many species that are very interesting

for other regions of Italy not being

having no market in our island

these are resources lost this

for example this is a draw of

cicerelli that would make the joy and the

request of the Ligurian fishermen

these are free of saber fish that

would make the wealth of the fishermen

Sicilians

well then what is it that we have sought

to make without making a case of trying to

do it is done is set up one

technique that allows you to fish

to limit the beckett a lot

catches accessories in particular that

what consists consists of this type of

fishing consists of creating a

cone of shadow and then a cone of shadow e

of the vibrations in what it consists of

trezzano tool is none other than I am

two parallel ropes that are towed

from two by two fishing boats or two

craft these ropes have one

distance between them of about one meter a

meter and a half where they are related to these

phones are tied to plastic bags

obviously biodegradable or of the

always rags biodegradable

while we are towed at a speed

more or less a half mile video

the time they create vibrations and create

a shadow cone this the vibrations

together with the shadow cone they have power

power to aggregate the forms that i

fish to lead them together to lead them

all together as if it were a flock

this allows allows

use a certain wave frequency of

use a certain period of

use these capture systems

endings that will allow you to have some

peaches mono specifications of the peaches

product of a product of size

volute and therefore certainly to with low

environmental impact

then the identification of a system of

fishing that reduces the impact

physical on the substrate that allows

reduce by reducing by-catches

to reduce waste is something that

it comes to what is desired of both

our ministries that from the community

European

now the question may arise, but how

never this type of fishing is not activated

it is not not done

but it is not simply done

because to carry out this kind of

fishing must be specialists

but also has another side with data

negative

the downside is that it has a big one

power of capture bility ie

normally the fishing systems capture

03 04 for 10 while this system is

approach 100 percent then where

passes this fishing system remains well

little and therefore must be in some

repeated way not repeated over time o

at the due time with a big one big

intervals to give possibilities to

stop to replenish this type though

of activity is an activity that in

somehow sees the operators of the

then fish the fishermen like

collaborators of technicians but the purpose

a purpose of our university of ours

tournament is to make that as you

it means that the university falls from the

Chair and measure with reality

local with the social realities with the

world with the categories one of ours

initiatives has been to make gods

active repopulation of lobster on the

Ragosta

as you know the rind and a crustacean

which has great economic interest that is

very sought after and as a result it is

been over time overfished now for

try to put the system back or in

order the stop let it be

have a continuity of caught in the

time it was thought to collaborate with

the operators that is to say that also i

fishermen are co-authors of the

search

They are therefore been identified

areas

suitable for the fishing areas where they are

small lobsters were introduced for

make sure that they were put

regasta small so they could

grow over time and could in

somehow being managed by

fishermen reality what is the thing that

what happened that the fishermen being

been involved and also the s

and feeling the first actors have in

somehow kept the activity

guarded the area fishing is vain

abusive and above all have reduced by

very much the black market then the market

black of the agosti sold under size

those that are normally sold

to catering and these remote are

been introduced into these areas

over time with the success that in the turn

of 7 8 years the biomass then the

resources have risen by over 500

percent but not only will lose

ghosts and also for the fish that inhabited

rich all the fish quito or fauna that in

some connected way combined with

lobsters

later this was these times

these areas were somehow

always managed by fishermen and

preserved

seen the first success fixed

success the operators themselves have

desired have asked the region

sardegna that others were established

factual areas have been established

other 14 but at the national level e

international

and success that this type of management

this type of management had the

consent of all the marines of the

mediterranean but above all those of the

European community of the same community

European a hopes that this kind of

initiatives that is made by the fisherman

of Sardinia is in some way

emulated copied

assimilated by others from others

this we say that in reality

that’s the research and it’s the

activities that somehow have a

now they have an immediate response though

if if we look at our seas

we see that our ills have one

high biodiversity and the island and the

sardinia is recognized because it is

the island of the so-called centenarians therefore

there are some areas of Sardinia where

the number of centenarians and definitely in

proportion higher than those of others

Italian regions and also others

European regions but at the same time in the sea

the forests were found but the

not centenary forests but a thousand na

millenarians of the dating that

we have done on these plants on these

corals have shown that chorales of

about 4 centimeters in diameter per year

over 1900 years but the colonies that are

you are in some scooter also in the

substrate have a thickness of 8

centimeters so it is logical to think that

if 4 cm year approximately two thousand years or 3

centimeters can can exceed

so very much our island is not

plus an island of centenarians or not

only an island of centenarians but

we must also consider it an island of

millenarians all this what what what

affixed but port harcourt definitely a

make some considerations

if we have this evil if we

we have these biodiversity

surely we owe it also to the

operators who knew how to respect them

our riches but the other question

which must absolutely be taken in

considering the fact that Sardinia

it is at the center of the Mediterranean center

western

so it is in the middle therefore equidistant

both from North Africa and from the rest of the

continental europe so in some

way must be the trait d’union that

can that can and must ensure that the

universities and research institutes that

they resist both in Sardinia and in the north

africa and I speak of Algeria

tunisia and from morocco that have great

maritime traditions at the level of research

they could somehow and they had in

some way or must necessarily

collaborate in a system that there is one

interchange both first initially as

researchers then later as

type of activity or with the activities that

they have been somehow illustrated

first so as to expand the system is

make sure that there is an exchange but not

is an operational exchange between the realities

both scientific and both
