Scientific and environmental knowledge of a community’s territory is the basis of its cultural heritage and its “essence”. Identifying the development potential of an area and achieving it within the limits of natural equilibrium and principles is an exciting challenge of the third millennium.
The Accademia dei Fisiocritici opens a “window” on southern Tuscany through its periodical Etrurianatura.
The magazine has sections on popular scientific topics and promotes knowledge of local natural heritage and environmental awareness for better quality of life.
The issues are peer-reviewed by a committee composed mainly of Siena University lecturers. Every time a new volume is published, the articles it contains are discussed at a public presentation.
