Mario Tozzi (geologo, divulgatore scientifico) Lectio d’apertura “Caro Sapiens, ti scrivo”

Dear Sapiens, I'm writing to you, not to distract myself a little... but to raise your awareness. This could be the beginning of Mario Tozzi's imaginary correspondence between the Earth and Sapiens. Mario Tozzi, author, geologist, and science communicator, gives voice to the Earth, a patient parent who prods and admonishes his self-proclaimed favorite, most innovative and intelligent child: the human being. But is Sapiens really the most intelligent animal, as he likes to call himself, when he himself is the cause of the environmental crisis that is leading his species to destruction?
