Verwarmen en Isoleren
Klimaatverandering is een hot topic.
In hoeverre wij als mensen er de oorzaak of oplossing voor zijn, is niet iedereen het over eens. Het idee dat we zullen moeten inleveren aan leefcomfort en dagelijks plezier, doet menigeen de hakken in het zand zetten.
Geen gezellige avondjes meer rond de open haard (want de verbranding van hout is inefficiënt en

In our modern-day life, it is very common to come across plastic packaging. Although this kind of packaging is used in a variety of places, it is clear that it is becoming an environmental hazard as they are not usually reused. Therefore, every time one uses plastic packages, they dispose of it.
Unfortunately, so many countries that use plastic

The world record for planting the most trees in one day was held by India at 50 million trees, untill a few days ago when Ethiopia’s minister of innovation and technology, Dr Getahun Mekuria, tweeted the number of trees planted throughout the day: 353 million.

Ik las deze week een klein artikel over het afscheid van een directeur, Luitzen Wobma, van 'zijn' particulier initiatief Tools To Work. Een kleine stichting met een 'werkplaats voor de derde wereld', uitgegroeid tot internationaal kennisinstituut. Een ngo die mensen zowel in Afrika als Nederland helpt deel te nemen aan het arbeidsproces.
Iets in het artikel triggerde mij. Met

In 2015, Afroz Shah, an Indian lawyer, started with cleaning Mumbai's Versova beach, which was littered with plastic and other waste. At first, he was laughed at, but eventually other volunteers joined. After 21 months, they managed to clear the Versova beach. Besides the incredible and seemingly impossible task of cleaning the beach, another wondrous thing happened. For the first time in 20 years olive ridley sea turtles hatched on the Mumbai beach. See this impossible change for yourself, and try to follow his example!
Tired of buying new toothbrushes and looking for a plastic free option?
Hello lovely person,
If you have clicked on this article because you have read the title and are indeed looking for such a toothbrush, look no further! About a month ago, I was scrolling through my Instagram and came across a sponsored add. Usually, I am very annoyed with these, but this one caught my attention. It was an add about the company The Bam & Boo; a company that makes eco-friendly and sustainable products (and packaging), from bamboo (surprise!), their main product is their bamboo toothbrush. Another great part about this company is that

Anno 2019 is de opwarming van de aarde een steeds grote issue aan het worden. Het klimaatakkoord van Parijs is een goede stap in de richting en naar mijn gevoel worden individuen zich ook meer bewust dat het vijf voor twaalf is. Ikzelf merk ook dat ik milieubewuster leef. Ik eet minder vlees, ik scheid mijn afval en probeer zowaar elders mijn bijdrage te leveren aan een beter klimaat. Echter, ik blijf wel reizen en dit is niet bepaald bevorderend. Vliegen is nog steeds hartstikke milieubelastend, maar het is wel nodig als ik de wereld wil
