Who are we?

WHAT? An Association to save the diversity of life at every level and all over the world.

WHEN? The 4th of October 2004, San Francisco day.

WHERE? In one of the most prestigious italian Museums: the Museum of Natural History of Verona.

WHY? Today we know only a little part of the fauna and flora species living in the earth; we know of two million species, but naturalists estimate the total number is at least ten million, three quarters of them living in the tropical rain forest. Naturalists estimate that the distruction of the rain forest at the actual rate (100.000 square kilometres every year) is the cause of the extinction of tens of thousands of species annually. The association want to promote the knowledge and the protection of biodiversity and natural environments on earth.
