PISA - The words that HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum, Andrea Gennai and Gianluca Laliscia had exchanged last August on the occasion of Toscana Endurance Lifestyle 2015 have turned into facts. The enthusiasm with which the Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Dubai admired the beauty of the pine forest and the peculiarities of a million pine of the Regional Park Migliarino San Rossore have produced the invitation that HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum has addressed to the Director of the Park , the CEO of sistemaeventi.it and a delegation of technicians to be in these days in Dubai.

The goal, as emerged during Toscana Endurance Lifestyle and in last October when the President of the Park Fabrizio Manfredi and the Ambassador of the United Arab Emirates in Italy Saqer Nasser Ahmed Abdullah Alraisi met in Marina di Pisa, is jointly to take the first step in order the pines of the historic San Rossore area could be implanted in the UAE metropolis.

The idea of ​​bringing the pines of the San Rossore to Dubai outlines perspectives absolutely interesting not only in relation to the project of a pine forest "made in St. Rossore" in the emirate, but also to create synergies related to the green economy and to projects aimed at enhancing and protecting the environment. A few days ago, among other things, HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum launched the investment program "Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050", which aims in the coming decades to make the city a global benchmark for "green economy" with 75% utilization of renewable sources. During his stay in Dubai, the Director Gennai will propose to the HH also the developing of other initiatives related to issues of protected areas, such as the creation of a biosphere reserve by UNESCO in the UAE in synergy with our MAB " Selve costiere di Toscana" and a collaboration, in view of Expo 2020, which points out models of innovative management of protected areas, to be presented to the world as a result of collaboration with Italy and Toscana Endurance Lifestyle.

The meetings in Dubai will be an opportunity to discuss the upcoming events to be held in San Rossore, already scheduled and intended to further strengthen the relationship and synergies of the territory with Dubai and the United Arab Emirates.
