AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoAI & Policing: Italy’s draft AI decree would let police automatically convert faces into biometric data for everyone entering “sensitive” public-order areas (from squares to stations) during events, storing it for seven days unless a crime triggers matching; the data-protection authority warns the plan doesn’t fit the EU AI Act. Climate Watch: Eurostat reports EU greenhouse-gas emissions rose 0.3% in Q1 2026 to about 837 million tonnes CO₂e, with household and some industry/transport cuts offsetting increases in power and gas supply. Border Tensions (Ceuta): Morocco and Spain moved to stop a new mass attempt to reach Ceuta after social-media calls; Moroccan police arrested at least 111 people and used tear gas as Spain boosted forces. Food & Finance (Parmesan loans): Italy’s “cheese bank” system—using young Parmigiano wheels as collateral—faces strain as extreme heat raises storage costs and threatens farmers’ financing. Culture & Daily Life: Rome’s viral dancing seniors returned to Piazza Testaccio, inspiring more older Italians to stay active.
