M'illumino di meno | I use less light is a symbolic initiative aimed at raising awareness on energy saving launched in 2005 by the Cayerpillar show broadcast by Rai Radio 2.

Nata come riflessione sui problemi aperti dall'evoluzione delle pratiche, delle convinzioni e delle scienze in campo biomedico, la bioetica ha richiamato sin dal principio l'attenzione di credenti, non credenti, atei, agnostici e scettici preoccupati di salvaguardare le rispettive convinzioni etiche in materia e di orientare i processi sociali e giuridici. I rapporti tra le varie prospettive sono fluidi e complessi. Scopo del convegno è promuovere un confronto interdisciplinare tra filosofi e giuristi nella convinzione che il dialogo fra diversi saperi e discipline possa contribuire a una migliore comprensione dei rapporti tra bioetica, diritto e religione nelle società secolarizzate.
