La campaña cuenta con el respaldo de más de 50 grupos, entre ellos Cedar Rapids, Iowa Sunrise Hub y Iowa Alliance for Responsible Agriculture.

Únase a la conferencia de prensa virtual el 14 de julio a las 7 p.m. CDT.

«Los consumidores deben liderar la transición correcta hacia un sistema descentralizado de producción de carne orgánica proveniente de ganado criado sobre pastos regenerativos y alimentado con pasto, y dirigido por una red diversa de agricultores, ganaderos, procesadores y minoristas independientes locales y regionales que se comprometan con una remuneración justa y condiciones de trabajo seguras, y con la justicia ambiental y climática», dijo Ronnie Cummins, director internacional de la OCA.

El representante Ro Khanna (D-California), que presentó la versión de la Ley de Reforma de los Sistemas Agrícolas de la Cámara de Representantes, dijo: «La demanda de los consumidores y la reforma de políticas deben ir de la mano para nivelar el campo de juego de los productores diversificados independientes, de modo que puedan proporcionar alimentos confiables y sostenibles. Los consumidores merecen saber de dónde viene su carne, y los agricultores merecen una oportunidad equitativa en el mercado».

«Desde el creciente número de trabajadores en las plantas empacadoras de carne que están sufriendo a causa del COVID-19, hasta las familias que lloran la pérdida de sus seres queridos, estamos siendo testigos del costo humano vinculado a las ganancias de los procesadores de carne más grandes de nuestro país», dijo Darryl Morin, presidente de Forward Latino«. Estos trabajadores esenciales, en gran parte gente de color, tienen derecho a las mismas protecciones en el lugar de trabajo que la mayoría de nosotros damos por sentado».

«Con la fijación de precios, las injusticias hacia los agricultores y los trabajadores de las plantas empacadoras de carne, la falta de seguridad alimentaria e infraestructura, y los problemas ambientales y de salud pública que nos perjudican a todos, el sistema de la ganadería industrial ha estado plagado de abusos durante mucho tiempo», dijo Sherri Dugger, directora ejecutiva de SRAP. «Nuestro futuro depende de que tomemos medidas».

La Organic Consumers Association (OCA) es una organización nacional de base sin fines de lucro que aboga en nombre de millones de consumidores a favor de alimentos seguros y saludables y un medio ambiente limpio.

Forward Latino es una organización sin fines de lucro, de defensa y servicio sin afiliación partidaria, dedicada a ayudar a los latinos que buscan el llamado «sueño americano». Forward Latino cumple su misión a través de la defensoría, el compromiso cívico, la educación y la prestación de servicios.

El Socially Responsible Agricultural Project (SRAP) ayuda a las comunidades rurales a sustituir la producción ganadera industrial por una agricultura animal ecológica, socialmente equitativa y económicamente viable.

Hangzhou en China es testigo de la coordinación del desarrollo urbano con la protección del patrimonio de la humanidad

HANGZHOU, China, 14 de julio de 2020 /PRNewswire/ — El 6 de julio, la ciudad de Hangzhou en China oriental lanzó el «Día de Hangzhou Liangzhu» y la primera Semana de la Cultura de Hangzhou Liangzhu, que es además el festival exclusivo para los tres patrimonios de la humanidad «más jóvenes» (seleccionados más recientemente) de Hangzhou, según el gobierno municipal de Hangzhou.

En la…

En la 43ra. Conferencia sobre Patrimonio de la Humanidad celebrada hace un año en Baku, capital de Azerbaiyán, las Ruinas Arqueológicas de la ciudad de Liangzhu se incluyeron en la Lista de Patrimonios de la Humanidad. Hangzhou ha decidido establecer el 6 de julio como «Día de Hangzhou Liangzhu» y el 24 de junio como «Día del Lago del Oeste de Hangzhou«. Estos dos días son las fechas en que los dos renombrados sitios de Hangzhou fueron incluidos oficialmente en la Lista de Patrimonios de la Humanidad.

Del Lago del Oeste al Gran Canal y luego a las Ruinas Arqueológicas de la ciudad de Liangzhu, Hangzhou ya cuenta con tres patrimonios culturales de la humanidad, lo que indica que Hangzhou es una ciudad antigua con distintas herencias culturales que demuestran el contexto claro y completo de la historia y la cultura chinas.

En Hangzhou, los tres sitios están todos ubicados en centros de desarrollo urbano. Esto también hace que Hangzhou preste una especial atención al sentido de la participación de los ciudadanos y la simbiosis entre los seres humanos y la naturaleza en el proceso de protección integral de los tres sitios patrimonio de la humanidad. Tras años de exploración se ha formado gradualmente un método integrado y simbiótico de protección que combina el legado cultural, el desarrollo urbano y los residentes urbanos.

«Liangzhu» quiere decir «bello continente en agua» en chino. La ciudad y el agua han sido siempre simbióticas en el desarrollo. Los antepasados que pusieron los cimientos de la ciudad vivieron siempre junto al agua, y la antigua ciudad de Liangzhu no es una excepción. El centro de conservación del agua periférica de la antigua ciudad de Liangzhu es el más antiguo sitio de conservación de agua a gran escala descubierto hasta ahora en China. Incluye complicados sistemas de irrigación, y de desarrollo y mantenimiento agrícola. Fue de enorme significación en una era en que los seres humanos no tenían caballos domesticados.

Tras la inclusión en la lista de patrimonios de la humanidad, es responsabilidad común de todas las partes proteger en forma efectiva estos sitios de nuestro legado.

«La primera prioridad es proteger, y la segunda es compartir los frutos de la conservación». Este es el principio del equipo de gestión para las Ruinas Arqueológicas de la ciudad de Liangzhu, que es responsable de contactar a 24 aldeas en la reserva durante el año para coordinar la protección del sitio y la vida y la producción.

Al mismo tiempo, Hangzhou ha establecido un modelo de «zona especial» para la protección de grandes sitios, que ha mantenido al máximo la integridad y la autenticidad de los sitios, lo que incluye la construcción del Parque de las Ruinas Arqueológicas de la ciudad de Liangzhu. Actualmente el parque ha preservado y restaurado el sistema original de humedales en un área de gran tamaño, y ha restablecido el antiguo estilo del campo en esa época. Además, la inspección de rutina y el aviso tecnológico temprano de 114 kilómetros cuadrados de áreas de patrimonio y zonas de amortiguación se ven reforzados por medio de asistencia científica y tecnológica en la recolección y análisis de los datos.

Este tipo de crecimiento e integración compartidos entre los sitios y ciudades patrimonio, las ciudades y las personas también se ha mostrado en la protección del Lago del Oeste en las generaciones previas. Hoy, al pasear en las montañas y ríos del Lago del Oeste, la marca de una coexistencia armoniosa entre los seres humanos y la naturaleza puede encontrarse en todas partes.

Hace ya 13 siglos, Bai Juyi, un famoso poeta y funcionario gubernamental de Hangzhou, construyó proyectos de conservación de agua en Hangzhou, y organizó a la gente para levantar diques y almacenar agua para irrigar las tierras de cultivo. La Calzada Su, un famoso punto paisajístico en el Lago del Oeste, también recibe su nombre en memoria de Su Dongpo, un famoso funcionario y escritor de Hangzhou, que gobernó el Lago del Oeste hace 10 siglos. Desde 2002, el Lago del Oeste, también el punto paisajístico más importante de Hangzhou, se ha transformado en el parque central de la ciudad, con más de 130 puntos paisajísticos a lo largo del Parque del Lago del Oeste abiertos al público en forma gratuita.

Park So-Hyun, la examinadora en jefe de la postulación del Lago del Oeste como patrimonio de la humanidad y una experta del Concejo Internacional de Monumentos y Sitios (ICOMOS por sus siglas en inglés), se maravilló con la buena coordinación del desarrollo urbano de Hangzhou y la protección del lago en el Lago del Oeste. Ella dijo que los aborígenes mismos son los componentes del paisaje cultural, y comparten la responsabilidad de la protección del patrimonio con el equipo de gestión.

La relación armoniosa entre Hangzhou y el Lago del Oeste no se ha roto nunca desde la antigüedad. Diferentes generaciones de funcionarios y locales en Hangzhou coinciden en devolver el lago a la gente y proteger el Lago del Oeste, lo que es un acto consciente colectivo que ha perdurado por miles de años.

En el análisis final, la protección del patrimonio cultural no puede ser separada de los esfuerzos de los residentes de la ciudad. Puede verse que la protección de las Ruinas Arqueológicas de la ciudad de Liangzhu y el Lago del Oeste se ha convertido verdaderamente en asunto de todos en Hangzhou. En la coexistencia armoniosa de seres humanos, naturaleza y ciudades, y en la protección continua del legado cultural, la filosofía de la nación china, su exclusivo gusto estético y su temperamento tradicional han sido también heredados en forma continua.
