"It will be an opportunity to reiterate a more and more intense international cooperation so that the food and agriculture of the future proceed in step along the path of sustainability," Conte said.
This means "obtaining more with less and producing safe and nutritious food for all while preserving natural resources, which cannot last forever," he said.
"We have set up...a model of cooperation that, through know-how and technology, responds to two essential needs of our times: the need to contribute in a sustainable way to the social and economic development of developing countries and at the same time, the promotion of a model of energy production that is more and more sustainable and oriented towards decarbonization," Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi said in a statement.
"These are vital themes for the planet," Descalzi said, adding that with the Africa Project, Eni reaches a double objective: that of promoting local development in the countries in which it operates, and that of favoring "a more and more efficient and circular economic system."
Sustainability and climate change are becoming hot-button issues: three out of four Italians believe the environmental situation in the world is serious or extremely serious, according to a study of Ixe pollsters published by Coldiretti on Friday.
Climate change topped the list of emergencies mentioned by respondents, followed by the proliferation of plastic waste, air, sea and river pollution, and extreme weather events caused by climate change, according to the survey.
