Daily reflections, the editions of August 6, 2025
In Italy, the line between respect and conformity seems blurred, with those who follow the rules often being labelled as idiots. This perception, however, does not deter the Bardonecchia ski schools from offering a variety of outdoor activities for children during the summer months. These activities include rollerblading, mountain biking, rock climbing, and archery at Melezet.
However, the introduction of archery for children has raised some concerns. Questions about the safety of plastic deer targets, their material safety, environmental impact, and psychological suitability for young learners have been raised. It's crucial that these archery ranges are properly supervised, secure, and use child-friendly targets to ensure the safety of the participants.
At Melezet, archery is offered with traditional targets and plastic deer equipped with a built-in chest target. For detailed information about a specific ski school’s archery program or safety measures relating to plastic deer targets for children, contacting the schools or local tourism office would be the best approach.
Meanwhile, the regional council has increased the IRPEF (Italy's Regional Tax on Production Activities). According to Cirio, the increase is expected to benefit citizens from 2028. However, some readers question if this increase can be seen as a loan to the region, with the hope that citizens will receive the increased IRPEF back with interest by 2028.
The health assessor, who is struggling with waiting lists, has a plan for improvement by 2030. Yet, the feasibility of this plan and the promised improvements have been questioned by some.
On the roads, daily risks of accidents due to drivers using their phones persist, leading to frequent accidents and pile-ups. The reader suggests tougher penalties for such careless behaviour to ensure road safety.
Lastly, the question of journalistic ethics has been raised, with some news broadcasts giving more space to self-promotion of TV programs or CEO praise, which may not please the majority of viewers.
