  • Climate crisis: towards extinction (and what to do about it)
    8 December, by Eva Wissenz

    I have already introduced Extinction Rebellion and the Climate Crisis Coffee times they organize every Thursday, so no need to repeat.
    During 1 hour this week, at Tampereen yliopiston Päätalo, luentosali A3, members of EX will give an overview of the climate change crisis problem, and then during another hour explain why nothing worked so far. They will introduce the audience to civil disobedience (and it can be a challenge in Finnish culture).
    This movement has 3 goals: 1) make governments (...)

  • Climat Crisis coffee time
    7 December, by Eva Wissenz

    Extinction Rebellion (or XR, Elokapina in Finnish) is "a global environmental movement using non violent civil disobedience to compel government action to avoid tipping points in the climate system, biodiversity loss, and the risk of social and ecological collapse." (Wikipedia)
    As a non-violent movement, they are interesting because they have to be super creative in order to be heard by the decisions makers.
    The movement was established in the United Kingdom in 2018 and is known for (...)

  • A fish can think, yes (a lecture)
    2 December, by Eva Wissenz

    Life on Earth manifests itself in countless different forms. In their habitats, plants, animals, fungi and microbes form complex networks and ecosystems that are vital to human survival and well-being. As part of nature, we are completely dependent on the diversity and well-being of ecosystems.
    This lecture is given by Prof. Heikki Hirvonen and it’s about the fishes, how they feel, how they think.
    The free lecture series introduces different ecosystems and their importance to nature as a (...)

  • Tampere, kaupunki matkalla kohti ympäristöstävällisyyttä
    1 December, by Eva Wissenz

    On totta, että elinolosuhteet Tampereella ovat upeat. Meillä on puhdasta ilmaa, raikasta vettä, ja metsät ovat lähellä. Siitä huolimatta on tehtävä vielä paljon, jotta Tampere olisi kestävän kehityksen kaupunki, jossa hyödynnetään resurssien jakamista, kiertotaloutta, kaupunkipuutarhoja, lähiruokapiirejä sekä keskuksia, joissa jaetaan ekologisia taitoja, kaupunki jossa on tarjolla edullista terveellistä ruokaa, jossa vähennetään jätteiden tuottoa, ja niin edelleen.
    Tällä hetkellä muutoksen pääpaino (...)
