Our steps count and add together
Disappearing of glaciers is a complex global problem without partial and simple solutions. But this does not mean it is not my, your, our problem. And that I, you and we cannot do nothing. Quite the opposite. Yes, we can. And should. On every step. At home or on our way, when we engage in sports and when we eat. In our day-to-day lives. Are you up for a sustainability challenge? Accept the challenge and make the first step!
Sustainability steps
WHITE PEAKS HERE WE COME
Slovenians love to hike. Regardless of the season, time and temperature. But we (too) often travel to our hiking starting points, including those in national parks, by car and we often tend to select the usual most popular destinations. Why not use public transport or opt for hidden local destinations that you can reach by foot! Accept the challenge!
SUSTAINABLE APPROACH TO ENERGY
Did you know that 20 to 25% of all greenhouse gas emissions originate from heating and generation of electricity? Even through simple actions we can change many things. E.g., by using our mobiles and other electronic devices (gaming consoles, tablets, ets.) in a more thoughtful manner. This will help the nature, as well as you own health. We will feel better! Check what you can do to make a change. Accept the challenge!
SUSTAINABLE APPROACH TO TRAVEL
Transportation is responsible for one fifth of greenhouse gas emissions. And by “transportation” we don’t only mean distribution of products and logistics but all kinds of traveling, commuting, holidays and even Sunday family trips! Think about it! Every time you don’t choose the car for an everyday journey, you make the right choice. You can do many things on foot, by bicycle, or by public transport. Next time get your newspaper by bike! Accept the challenge!
SUSTAINABLE APPROACH TO NUTRITION
Too frequent consumption of fast and processed foot is unhealthy. Not only for us, but also for the environment. Production and transportation of such products, is not friendly to the environment due to direct greenhouse gas emissions. By selecting seasonal and locally produced food (if possible from your own or your neighbor's garden even) you make a significant step in sustainable nutrition. Check out what leading nutritionists advise and accept the challenge!
SUSTAINABLE APPROACH TO WAST
We try to be exemplary citizens and separate waste- and that’s a first step. At home, at work, when travelling. Biodegradable waste, waste packaging, mixed communal waste. But do we ever think about the quantities of produced and separated waste that accumulates? More is less, and new things every day are completely over the top. May decreased use, reuse or new use of old things become your next challenge!
