    30 May 2021, by Eva Wissenz

  • Miten voit toimia eettisemmin ja kestävämmin Tampereella?
    24 November 2021, by Eva Wissenz

    Tampere tunnetaan teollisuuskaupunkina ja sillä on vielä paljon haasteita edessä kestävään kehitykseen liittyvissä hankkeissa. Nykyiset toimet ovat toistaiseksi keskittyneet pääasiassa hiilineutraaliuuteen.
    Suosittelen kaikkia tutustumaan Tampereen kaupungin kestävän tulevaisuuden strategiaan ja sen aloitteisiin.
    Elokuussa 2020 julkaistu Hiilineutraali Tampere 2030 -tiekartta on ehdottomasti lukemisen arvoinen. Siinä kerrotaan selkeästi Kestävä Tampere ohjelman linjaukset kohti (…)

  • Planning for more mökki time or outdoor holidays in Finland? It’s wise to support local quality.
    26 May 2020, by Eva Wissenz

    Thanks a lot Marcus Grunewald for your great article introducing great family businesses and impact entrepreneurs of Finland!!
    As the Corona crisis demonstrated, international supply chains are fragile. Therefore, it makes sense to nourish the local businesses and the people behind them - even though this might mean paying a higher price for the products and services compared to imports from the Far East. Because in the long run sustainability also means that your neighbour has a place to (…)
