Feeding the planet, energy for life.
Milan's World Expo 2015 bid is centered on a broad theme and expressed as 'Feeding The Planet, Energy For Life'. The subjects and scopes of this slogan navigate and embody all aspects which impact food quality and safety, the broad problematics of malnutrition and hunger, the diversity and future of food production across all cultures, and world sustainability yield improvements. Milan's bid concretely responds to a convergence of rising global trends such as the environment, energy creation, population growth, the practice and implications of genetically modified foods and of resource renewal. Milan wishes to contribute to the United Nations' Millennium Campaign "No excuse 2015", among whose goals foremost is the eradication of world hunger."

[SIZE="3"]The Expo Area
Nations, Italian Regions, and Themes will each be housed in separate pavilions which are to be topped by a landmark tower. The site will extend over 1.7 million squared meters and its parks, kiosks, restaurants, and representative pavilions will be the object of international architectural competitions. Visitors will contemplate Milan, sway and ripple, stroll by waterways, or saunter by walking passages to the Exposition site, or yet again travel comfortably by train or Metro.

that's not so sure coz of many geopolitical issues.

anyway as far as i know seems that the "bidbook" (just to use an olympic name) of Milan has been appriciated more than the turkish one and that the inspectors have found a more complex and complete project in italy than in turkey.

but of course, this is not a technical race. it's a political and economical one.
