I started to change small habits at home and be more environmentally friendly, using the composter for organic waste.
Do you do something similar?

Conceived as a tool for environmental education in the family, the Erasmus+ project "THINK DIFFERENTLY AND ACT DIFFERENTLY" (TD&AD) (2021-1-RO01-KA220-ADU-000030224) has reached the phase of dissemination and valorization of the results. For this purpose, on 8.12.2023, the Smart Educational Projects Association organized the national multiplication event, where the main results of the project were presented: the "THINK DIFFERENTLY AND ACT DIFFERENTLY" Guide (Chapter I - Impact of daily activities on the environment https: //thinkdifferently-actdifferently.eu/.../RO... , CHAPTER II-Circular economy for a healthier medium https://thinkdifferently-actdifferently.eu/.../RO... ) and the platform where the materials they are organized in different formats, grouped by lessons, but also with methodical instructions https://thinkdifferently-actdifferently.eu/ro/for-trainers/ for trainers who want to be able to use them directly in activities with parents. Although intended for adult education, the project has great potential for transferability to the school and youth fields, being able to be used as support material in Green Week activities, School Otherwise, environmental education activities or lectures with parents.
Since pictures say more than hundreds of words, parents will be supported in the effort to change their children's habits by Canzarus, the aluminum can that does not want to die, but hopes for a new life after recycling. The first story https://thinkdifferently-actdifferently.eu/.../TDAD_Ep1... features Canzarus' journey from the trash can to one of the landfills that the implementation of the linear economy we've all been with would land him in used to
The second story https://thinkdifferently-actdifferently.eu/.../TDAD_Ep2... is the journey of Canzarus after he arrived in the recycling container, as part of the circular economy.

Great news from Iceland! 🌊🐋

Iceland has suspended whaling for three months, putting animal welfare first. There's even potential for a complete ban, with the Food Minister emphasizing that whaling may not have a future if welfare requirements aren't met.

Support for whaling has dropped, with the last active whaling company in Iceland planning to end its operations this season due to declining profits. The majority of Icelanders now disapprove of whaling, with 51% against it compared to 42% four years ago.

This temporary halt to whaling is a significant step towards compassionate whale conservation, as highlighted by Humane Society International (HSI) Europe. Let's hope for a permanent ban and continued progress in protecting these magnificent creatures.

Iceland has suspended whaling for three months as support for the controversial practice drops.

approaches are all around us. They can be employed in a number of different sectors from textiles to buildings and construction, and at various stages of a product’s lifecycle, including design, manufacturing, distribution, and disposal.

Circular economy is much more than waste management. We explain what it is and how it can help fight climate change.
