"I think the Environmental Ocean Team is a really great initiative.
The oceans are going to play such an important part in the future of
this planet and there is so much more to learn about them. The
scientists involved have a wealth of research expertise and Giovanni
Soldini is an accomplished sailor - all the right ingredients to
really make this project a success."

Ocean Team goes to the North Atlantic
Physicist Emilio Tesi (one of the directors and overall coordinator of
EOT) and photographer Arturo
delle Donne are taking part to the Extended Ellett Line
oceanographic campaign organized by NOCS on board NERC's RRS Discovery from 19 to 29 April. Their cruise diary, with
comments, pictures and videos showing the scientific aspects of the
campaign as well as life on board, will be available on this web site
to allow you to virtually participate in this fascinating research
adventure. Emilio and Arturo will wear technical garments kindly
provided by LEVIATHAN®, a
company specialized in technical textile products with enviable
performance levels, which has sponsored several oceanographic
campaigns in the last few decades.

LMF & Partners SIM S.p.A. (asset managers) collaborates with EOT sponsoring its projects.
LMF & Partners´ awareness of environmental problems has led it to create a new investment line: DEEP BLUE. The criteria for DEEP BLUE investments are characterized by the attention to environmental issues and sustainable development. EOT members share their environmental expertise with LMF & Partners, with EOT director Marco Bianucci sitting on the committee that strategically chooses the investments within DEEP BLUE.

Download the video about climate change, renewable energy and the
importance of the oceans for the climate system (in Italian - a
version with English subtitles will be available soon).
The video is the result of a collaboration between Environmental
Ocean Team, INForMando and NOCS, and features the famous sailor
Giovanni Soldini and NOCS scientist Paolo Cipollini. The original
idea came from Marco Bianucci, Paolo Cipollini and Emilio Tesi. The
filmakers are Luca Busi (Zeroframe) Barry Marsh (NOCS), Sara Petri
and Alessandra Trentin.

Some EOT members have recently visited Giovanni Soldini in Lorient,
Brittany, where Giovanni is supervising the construction of his new
single-hull boat, almost completed, which he will race in the most
important sailing competitions. During the visit some coverage for a
short movie was shot by filmmakers Luca Busi & Sara Petri. The movie, to be shown
at the BergamoScienza festival, is now being edited and will be
available on-line soon.

The picture was taken in Riomaggiore during the meeting with Franco Bonanini, president of the Cinque Terre National Park. One project was proposed by EOT at the meeting, and was favourably accepted by the Park.
The project, "Explaining Sailing & Science in the Park", which will be carried out in cooperation with the INForMando Group of INFM-CNR, consists of a series of guided lectures on a sailing boat in the Cinque Terre Marine Protected Area. The topics of the lectures will range from "Biodiversity of the Seafloor" to "Climatic Changes", to "Clean and Renewable Energy" and to "Environmental Safeguard as a Key to Sustainable Tourism". During these lectures, designed as truly "hands- on" workshops at sea, a range of media, such as photographs and video including underwater) will be produced. These are to be used as a support material for primary and secondary schools both at local and national level.
