«Quo vadis Earth?». In the era of the green transition, the fate of our planet appears uncertain. Economic needs, expectations of well-being and ethical dilemmas are intertwined in the challenge of energy sustainability, a real challenge for a capitalism in full metamorphosis: but is the direction taken so far really the right one?
