Marine scovazzas at Filtri BeachDIEGO MANNAAssociazione Scientifica Dilettantistica Mappets

AbstractWe plan to monitor the amount of scovazzas present in various beaches of the provinc of Triest to evaluate if our environment is under risk. We perform various campionaments in various beaches in various meses of the year, registering the number, the chilos and the spuzz of each type of scovazza, and present in this article our preoccupant results reguarding the Filtri Beach.

Key words: reduce, reuse, recycle, zaspu, spritz

IntroductionThe problem of scovazzas is diffused in all the world, and in the last years it has become nearly dramatic. All media show us images of cities and streets covered by scovazzas, with obviously negative ef-fects on the environment and on human health.Many solutions have been proposed, like incenerators, terminators, termovalorizat-ors, sotoeltapedizators, butaintelmaretors and lanciaintelspaziators. We think that the first serious solution is given by the 3R philosophy: reduce, reuse and recycle (Johnson, 2006). A problem that most people sottoestim-ates is the problem of marine scovazzas, i.e. the scovazzas present on our beaches that comes prevalently from the sea

(A.B.M.I.M., 2007). The purpose of this study is to give a better knowledge of the problem in the coast of Triest and to propose solutions to solve it.

Material and methodsTo collect our data, we use first person scoionament sampling method (Manna, 2009b; 2009c). We tried to improve our campionaments using also the third person smarronament sampling method (Manna et al., 2009), but when we tried to found some bubetz to collect scovaz-zas they always answer “volentieri”, that means “no” (Manna, 2009d).At the beginning of the study we collected scovazzas at Miramare beach, Santa Croce beach, Filtri beach and Pedo-

cin beach, but we soon noticed that:– At Miramare beach the CTF (Manna,

2009a) factor was absent, because the beach is protected and noone can entrar (Bavosa, 1986).

– At Santa Croce the CTF is sometime really high (Burlasconi, 2008) but the beach is very imbusated and it cost too much fadiga to reach the sea.

– At Pedocin there are two separated beaches (Patoco, 1989): in the male beach obviously CTF was absent, in the female beach the ranzides didn't permit us to entrar, even with our highly scientific purposes.

So, we continue our study only in the Filtri Beach, where CTF factor is high and you can reach the beach to make a toch in un bich e no xe plotch. And there is also the barett to drink a scotch. Or a spritz.We collect our scovazzas in some black sackets, then we bring our sackets at home and there we measured the number, the spuzz and the chilos of each type of scovazzas. As measurador of spuzz we use our sniffing cat, Capitan Harlock (C.H., fig. stronzetto), evaluating the spuzz rate on the basis of this scale:– 0: no C.H. reaction.– 1: C.H. deegreegn his face– 2: C.H. suffias toward scovazzas– 3: C.H. says “ciò che spuzon, mi vado

via, ciaveve”– 4: C.H. dies.– 5: C.H. vaporizes instantaneously. For statistical anlysis we use χ2 (Chi qagato) statistical test.

ResultsWe found a lot of scovazzas in the Filtri beach. Unfortunately, we have lost our sampling foio while drinking spritzets at the barett of the beach, so we have no data about number or chilos, but we can show directly the condition of the beach in december with a explicative photo. (fig. immond). A very important result is that the scovaz-zas resulted more present in autumn than in the summer season (Chi qagato=te ga ragion), so they are inversament propor-tional to the CTF present.Spuzz rate of the scovazzas resulted high, in fact Capitan Harlock registered a value of 4 (four) for five (5) times, so he died 5 times and we have only other 2 life bonus before searching a new sniffing cat (Siora Teresa, 1978). Fortunately, he never va-porized.

DiscussionAs the barett is closed in autumn, it is impossible that we have seen double in this season. Maybe in summer we were distracted by the high CTF of the beach and we saw only a half of the scovazzas present, but we think that this is compensated by the fact that we saw double because the barett was open. So scovazzas are effectively more present in autumn than in summer. We think this is because in summer the CTF factor of Filtri Beach is higher and mulones prefer to perform agonistic behavior in a nice place (Manna, 2009e), so they collect some scovazzas and the beach is cleaner. In autumn, invec, the CTF factor is absent so noone gà pel cul. Also, in this

season the weather get worse and more scovazzas arrive from the sea. All these scovazzas rest in the beach until some bubetz collect them.We think that the situation is not accept-able and that all person must try to reduce their scovazzas production with the 3 R philosophy: reduce, reuse and recycle (Johnson, 2006). For example, we reused the same spritz bikkier 10 times for each campionament.

ConclusionFiltri beach resulted at risk, in particular when CTF is absent from the beach. We found a lot of scovazzas on the beach, in particular in december, and we propose to give us a lot of finanziament to sensibil-ize people to the 3 R philosophy. In particular, we will explain the important secret technique of reusing the same spritz bikkier many times and the other ancient discipline of not throwing your sigaret on the ground. In this way we hope our coast will be cleaner and our Capitan Harlock will not lose his 2 life bonus too soon.

AcknowledgmentsWe thank all people that will pay more attention to scovazzas problem, thinking how dramatic this problem can be for our Capitan Harlock.We thank Cianeto of Santa Croce Beach for the coffees and for the pearl of saggezz “volerse ben no costa niente in sto mondo bruto e cativo”.We thanks also people that in reality help us collecting scovazzas (in diplomatical
