History

edit

On 30 July 2022, Minister for Parliamentary Relations Federico D'Incà and Member of the Chamber of Deputies Davide Crippa left the Five Star Movement, of which they had been members since 2013, in disagreement with the party's decision to withdraw its support to the Draghi Cabinet.[1]

On 1 August, Crippa and D'Incà founded Environment 2050,[2] which Members of the Chamber of Deputies Maurizio Cattoi, Alessandra Carbonaro and Nicola Invidia joined on the same day.[3]

Crippa ran in the 2022 Italian general election as Civic Commitment's candidate in the Gugliano in Campania single-member district, but lost and was not re-elected.[4]

The party website has been inactive ever since, and its operations are assumed to have been permanently suspended.

Ideology

The party is referred to by its founders as progressive and environmentalist.
