Iniziativa dei Cittadini Europei<\/h2>\n<\/div>

A partire dal 2012, i cittadini dell’UE hanno acquisito\u00a0 il diritto di rivolgersi direttamente alla Commissione Europea attraverso un’Iniziativa dei Cittadini Europei per proporre un emendamento legislativo concreto.<\/p>\n

Per fare questo, \u00e8 necessario prima di tutto costituire un comitato di cittadini, composto da almeno sette membri* provenienti da almeno sette diversi paesi dell’UE. Dopo una valutazione positiva dell’iniziativa da parte della Commissione Europea, il Comitato dei Cittadini ha un anno di tempo per raccogliere le firme.<\/p>\n

Deve essere raccolto un totale di almeno un milione di firme, e il numero minimo di firme deve essere raggiunto in almeno un quarto degli Stati dell’UE, attualmente sette Stati dell’UE[1]. Il numero minimo richiesto \u00e8 circa 750 volte il numero di membri del Parlamento Europeo di questo Paese – in Germania, ad esempio, sono necessarie 72.000 firme.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Il numero minimo di firme richieste per ogni Stato membro dell’UE si trova nel Registro ufficiale della Commissione europea[2]. Pu\u00f2 essere firmato sia per iscritto sia online.<\/p>\n

Se il numero di firme richiesto viene raggiunto entro il termine stabilito, la Commissione europea \u00e8 tenuta a pronunciarsi\u00a0 e il Comitato dei Cittadini pu\u00f2 presentare la sua iniziativa al Parlamento Europeo in un’assemblea pubblica. Entro tre mesi, la Commissione europea risponder\u00e0 su come intende procedere. Nella migliore delle ipotesi, ci\u00f2 porter\u00e0 all’adozione della proposta e ad un emendamento legislativo. Tuttavia, la Commissione Europea pu\u00f2 anche rifiutare l’Iniziativa dei Cittadini e dichiarare le motivazioni che hanno portato a tale conclusione.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n

Consideriamo l’Iniziativa dei Cittadini Europei come un’opportunit\u00e0 di impegnarsi per l’estensione del Regolamento sulle Pinne Naturalmente Annesse ( \u201cFins Naturally Attached Regulation\u201d) nell’Unione Europea. Pertanto, abbiamo bisogno del maggior numero possibile di sostenitori in tutta l’UE.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

* deve essere raggiunta l’et\u00e0 minima per votare (di solito\u00a0 generalmente 18 anni, Austria e Malta 16 anni, Grecia 17 anni) e non si deve essere membri della Commissione Europea. Non \u00e8 richiesta l’iscrizione al registro elettorale.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\u201cWith this initiative we as citizens have the chance to speak out against illegal finning and catching of sharks purely for their fins. The trading of fins from Europe must stop!\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>

Nils is a shark conservation activist at Stop Finning Deutschland and scuba diving instructor. He has been diving with sharks around the world and experienced both their beauty and meaning for marine ecosystems as well as the threats humans pose to their existence.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\u201cSharks are the most underappreciated animals in the oceans, sheer perfection and beauty. The importance of sharks in the eco-system is fundamental in the survival of the oceans; we need to step up our measures to protect sharks.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

Alex is the CEO of Sea Shepherd Global. Through his work for Sea Shepherd he has witnessed first hand the devastating effects of shark fishing on shark populations worldwide. He has also had the privilege to dive with sharks in many remote areas.<\/p>\n<\/div>

“Many of these species have local or global protections and this petition and the legislation it represents would help really enforce measures put in place to preserve these rapidly disappearing sharks”.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Andrew is a marine biologist and university lecturer in the UK. Some of his recent research has shown that endangered sharks are on sale in the EU, including shark fins from beautiful animals such as hammerhead and mako sharks.<\/p>\n

Julian Engel is a marine ecologist and fisheries analyst, who has worked in the context of illegal fishing in Honduras, West Africa and South-East-Asia. His work incorporates not only the ecosystem but also the integration of socioeconomics in sustainability.<\/p>\n

As the co-founder of the NGO Stop Finning, he creates advocacy on the crucial role that sharks play in healthy ecosystems and the sustainability of our oceans.<\/p>\n

“Shark numbers all over the world have been decreasing for decades. Most species take many years to reach sexual maturity and reproduce, making these animals particularly vulnerable to overfishing. For many years now the EU has dismissed scientists\u2019 warnings and recommendations, but that has to stop. I joined this initiative because sharks need our help and I believe stopping the fin trade is a step in the right direction. Together, we can do it!”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Lu\u00eds Alves has an MSc in Applied Biotechnology and is a biology PhD candidate at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon. His research is focused on the study of the effects of pollution in sharks found in Portuguese waters. He has also worked as a fisheries observer and is the current president of the Portuguese Association for the Study and Conservation of Elasmobranchs (APECE).<\/p>\n

“Since a couple of decades, and especially due to an increased market demand for shark fins, overfishing and many other human activities, many sharks species have been driven to the rim of extinction. I believe we all must do our best to create awareness as of the importance of sharks for the balance of all marine biodiversity and, consequently for the entire planet.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Monica is in the process of finishing her Master’s in Aquatic Ecology at Lund University (Sweden) and has mainly focused on marine environments.<\/p>\n

She is fascinated by the ocean and all the life found within. She supports the citizens\u2019 initiative because sharks are misunderstood and feared, but in truth they are of the utmost importance to marine life and ecosystems, and they should not disappear simply because humans are greedy.<\/p>\n

Veerle is a diver, ocean lover and sharks are on top of her bucket-encounter-list: Diving is her religion, the ocean her church and sharks are the chief priests.<\/p>\n

She has been working with many organizations (Shark Angels, Sea Save Foundation and others) and has her own: The Global Shark Conservation Initiative, which has initiated many letter campaigns to authorities, supermarkets and restaurants in order to get more protection for sharks. This campaign is important to her, as we should do everything within our power to stop sharks from being slaughtered at today\u2019s rate.<\/p>\n
