The forester

Born in 1960, carabiniere Forestale, former athlete of the State Forestry Corps, highly decorated, has 40 international marathons in all 5 continents with a personal best of 2h20m, alternating running, cycling, swimming.

He has always worked in the environmental field against indiscriminate forest cuts and building abuses in restricted areas, as well as in anti-poaching operations and in the seizure of abused animals.

In addition to the protection of flora and fauna, it has also supported the commitment to rescue the populations affected by the Aquila and Amatrice earthquakes.

He says of himself: “The Trans-Amazon will mean bringing the devastating exploitation of the Forest to the attention of the mass media, with indiscriminate cuts, killing or inducing the movement of fauna but also human exploitation and the violation of the rights of thousands of Indians. This company, unique of its kind, has an incredible sporting but also scientific and human potential. It will not be easy to complete, the difficulties will be many and could also be very dangerous. The importance of a close-knit team with various skills will be fundamental. “

Trees are sanctuaries. Who knows how to talk to them, who knows how to listen to them, perceives the truth. They do not preach doctrines and recipes but preach, regardless of the particular, the primordial law of life.
