  • Luontoystävällistä mökkeilyä
    13 June, by Eva Wissenz

    Vinkkejä Amanda Pokkilta... (Sustainability and impact club)
    Suomi on yli puolen miljoonan mökin maa. Mökit sijaitsevat usein vesistöjen äärellä, ja mitä pienempi vesistö, sitä herkempi se on, ja sitä paremmin on pidettävä huolta jätevesistä. Perheeni mökki, kuten monet muutkin, on hyvin askeettinen; saamme sähkön aurinkopaneeleista, juomaveden kaivosta, ja vesikäymälän sijaan käytämme kuivakäymälää. On helppo ajatella, että tällainen askeettinen elämä on hyvin ekologinen tapa viettää kesää, mutta (...)

    7 June, by Eva Wissenz

    Vieraslajit ovat kasvava ympäristöongelma, mutta miksi? Keskustelua alustavat Marjaana Tammela Villivyöhykkeestä sekä Katja Tanski Ekokumppaneilta. Marjaana käsittelee "Ihminen osana luontoa" -näkökulmasta luonnon monimuotoisuutta ja koko olemassaolomme riippuvuutta terveestä, monimuotoisesta ekosysteemistä, jossa jokaisella teolla tai tapahtumalla luonnossa on oma merkityksensä.
