This year there are numerous associations, including ours, giving life to “Lake Bolsena, a lake to love”, the 3rd edition of Environment Days.
The program revolves around the date of June 5, the day dedicated to the environment since 1972 at the request of the UN. It takes place in various locations around the lake, where citizens’ associations work to safeguard our territory. This year, with various public meetings planned, particular emphasis is placed on the theme of eco-sustainable agriculture, respectful of the balance of nature and the health of all, promoting economic development in harmony with the environmental and cultural heritage of our territory.
Activities take place from May 25th to June 16th, in the various lake communities.
