In the treasure chest of Biodiversity
The protection of biodiversity is essential to ensure the health of the environment and the well-being of the animal and plant species that inhabit it. There are several measures that can be taken to protect biodiversity, including the creation of protected areas, promoting the conservation of natural habitats, controlling invasive species, reducing pollution and promoting sustainable development. It is important that we all do our part to protect biodiversity, as its preservation is crucial for our planet and future generations.
Drinking water is an essential commodity for human health and general well-being. It is important to ensure that the water we drink is safe and clean; in fact, the Municipalities of Alpe Cimbra are equipped with cutting-edge water purification systems with control devices to guarantee the protection of drinking water, the reduction of waste and the control of anomalies. The technical offices constantly monitor drinking water levels with specific monthly sample analyzes on the entire local water network.
In the territories of Alpe Cimbra there are many fountains equipped with taps to avoid wasting water available to tourists and residents. The municipalities' commitment is to maintain high levels of drinking water to give the possibility of filling water bottles and reducing the consumption of plastic. With a view to reducing plastic consumption, Lake Lavarone (Blue Flag also 2023) is completely plastic free: only glass bottles are sold in the refreshment points and it is possible to refill the water bottles.
