Il collasso dell’AMOC diventa un rischio reale Quando un governo considera una corrente oceanica un problema di sicurezza nazionale, significa che qualcosa è cambiato davvero. L’Islanda ha ufficialmente classificato il possibile collasso dell’AMOC — la grande circolazione che porta calore dall’Atlantico ai mari del Nord — come minaccia esistenziale. Una decisione rara. E un segnale forte per l’Europa. Perché l’AMOC è così importante L’AMOC funziona come un gigantesco nastro trasportatore: acqua calda dai tropici sale verso nord, si raffredda, affonda e torna indietro in profondità. È questo flusso a rendere gli inverni europei sorprendentemente miti per la latitudine. Il problema è la velocità del cambiamento. L’acqua dolce proveniente dallo scioglimento della Groenlandia sta “diluendo” l’Atlantico del Nord, disturbando il meccanismo che permette all’acqua salata di affondare.

Sociópolis is a project fomented by the Generalitat Valenciana for the construction of
a newmodel neighbourhood of accessible housing, in line with the modern tradition
of investigating and proposing new habitable environments that reflect the social
reality of the time.

of investigating and proposing new habitable environments that reflect the social
reality of the time.
The project promotes the construction of housing that responds to the needs of the
new types of family unit (young people, the elderly, single-parent families, etc.), both
owner-occupied and rented, in a quality urban setting in which the landscaped areas,
social amenities and good architecture generate urban excellence.

Sociópolis was presented at the Valencia Biennial in 2003, as a project in which 13
international architecture firms took part. The project put forward a model of new
urban development in which housing and multifunctional amenities were integrated
in an agricultural environment, a continuation and updating of the model constituted
by the Mediterranean hortulus.
