Vil du med på Klimasejlads d. 6. juli?
Klimaengagerede unge fra Roskilde Ungdomsskole inviterer til årets vigtigste sejltur for klimaet og vores fjord.
Ungdomsskolen afvikler til sommer et unge-sejltogt i samarbejde med de 6 Isefjordskommuner og Nationalmuseets skibe. Fokus er på fjordens tilstand, den grønne trepart og tøjindustrien. D. 6. Juli kommer togtet til Roskilde Havn, og dagen bliver en fejring af alle de mange lokale indsatser som skaber alternativer til status quo (inden for både tekstilforbrug og for at forbedre fjordens tilstand).
I den forbindelse er du inviteret til Klimasejlads ombord på nationalmuseets træskonnert. Få et fascinerende indblik i vores truede og forurenede vandområder og mød lokale aktører som præsenterer positive løsningsrum.
Vi sejler kl. 12 og kl. 13.30
Program:
Udsejling til Roskilde Fjord fra Vikingeskibsmuseets kaj
Stig Markager giver et indblik i vores truede og forurenede havområder
Nationalpark Skjoldungernes land tager Bundprøver
Lokale trepartsambassadører fortæller om deres frivillige indsats for den Grønne Trepart
Retur til Roskilde Havn efter ca. 1 time.
Tilmelding til Astrid Ågot på Tlf. 26714761 (Husk at fortælle om du vil sejle med kl 12 eller kl 13.30)
(Plads til 35 gæster. Først til Mølle.)

Most likely your events need electricity. Your country has most likely real green electricity providers, as they purchase or implement the appropriate capacities of green electricity for each customer. The other electricity providers only offer an electricity mix. The share of green electricity is sold more expensively as an eco-tariff to some customers, while the other customers theoretically only receive the shares of gas, coal, etc.

Few events offer showers. However, if they do: Long and hot showers mean water and energy consumption and ultimately high costs. The other effects are even more impressive in the network - or did you know that long showering can be responsible for refugees and the quality of life in Germany?

Building materials such as concrete, plaster, steel or even aluminum have a high ecological footprint and mean many greenhouse gases. The foamed insulation materials are also in the criticism. In addition, the negative consequences of conventional paints and adhesives are often unknown, which then lead to toxic exhaust gases in waste incineration plants due to ultimately ineffective filters. Natural building materials and colors are significantly more expensive, although the non-natural materials are often extremely expensive when it comes to disposal. So it is the good feeling, the better smell and the healthier building biology that make us do the right thing here.

(0) not at all, (1) to many meals, (2) to all meals, (3) more than one alternative
Unlike the vegan diet, a vegetarian diet can also include milk, cheese or eggs. Vegetarian days are healthy, mean less animal husbandry and thus less consumption of land and water.
We Germans consume more than three times more animal products, which according to the EAT-Lancet Commission would be healthy for us and the planet.
Events should offer vegan alternatives, also like to inform about the advantages and find out in dialogue with the visitors what is well received and what is not. A real paternalism will not work - rather the feeling of pride, at least partly doing something better. We don't have to become vegans or vegetarians right away, but maybe just flexitarians.

(0) not at all, (1) less than 50%, (2) more than 50%, (3) 100% of the products also available as organic
Organic is extremely important for biodiversity. We have the greatest species extinction since the extinction of the dinosaurs and the consequences are greater than those of climate change. Pesticides and mineral fertilizers endanger our future. In addition, soils from organic farming usually store more carbon and thus help against the climate catastrophe.
The counter-argument is often that the yields in organic farming are lower than in industrial agriculture and therefore more forests have to be cut down. This is true, for example, with cereals that are not unrestrictedly healthy. But if we eat less meat, waste less food and eat more healthy legumes, we have plenty of additional space available and can feed the entire world organically and even plant a little more forest.
Organic is more expensive. But on the one hand, many costs can be saved by less meat and on the other hand, it can be bought and cooked intelligently …. Of course, it is also to be questioned whether there must be such a low livelihood at all - environmental policy is also social policy.

Legumes are not only an alternative source of vegetable proter to animal products, but also extremely important for world nutrition. They bind nitrogen from the air in the soil and can achieve just as high yields in organic farming as in industrial agriculture. So we have to cut down fewer forests.
In addition, legumes are healthier than cereals. Harari describes in his bestseller "Sapiens" how we could probably get much older if we didn't eat so much cereal products.
After all, legumes are important for bees and biodiversity. Lupine, for example, also grows in northern Germany and can be used for meat substitutes, yogurt, coffee substitutes, ice cream or even noodles.

Fortunately, tap water has long been a trend. There are drinking water dispensers in schools and the students have their drinking bottles with them, and managers also bring their drinking bottles to workshops. Many children do not even get used to the unhealthy sugar drinks.
Tap water is more strictly controlled than bottled drinks and saves a lot of energy and packaging.
Outdoor events need to be aware of the water hoses that have to meet the standards for drinking water.

(0) not at all, (1) less than 50%, (2) more than 50%, (3) I save or avoid 100% of the food to be thrown away
Food is wasted from the field to the factories and transport routes to the throw away by us, the restaurants and the supermarkets. This ultimately means that more areas are needed for cultivation and thus forests are cut down and biodiversity is endangered with sprays and fertilizers.
We can save specifically rescued food (e.g. too small or wrinkled goods) and also donate leftover food in many places, e.g. to the food banks.

Consistently separating waste, including green waste, glass and paper, is not as self-evident as can be assumed. Many make little effort here and don't really know what belongs in which bin. The residual waste bin also costs the public sector a lot of money, while the recyclable and green waste bin are free of charge. But also special waste, such as batteries, incandescent lamps, electrical appliances, etc. must be disposed of properly.
Events can place separating waste bins with information signs everywhere. In general, it is also possible that a sign indicates that the cleaners take over the separation for the guests. But better, the visitors can do that.

(0) not at all, (1) some, (2) most, (3) all only digital.
Saving paper helps to protect forests - recycling paper also ultimately means more demand for fresh pulp from trees.
We don't even need to print many things in the first place, but can save them on devices that we already have. For internal processes but also for dialogue with customers, digital forms should continue to prevail.
So the exhibitors etc. are welcome to ask if they need a paper version of the invoice.

For events it makes perfect sence to use reusable glasses and dishes. Pant on glasses and dishes combined with mobile dishwashers for rent are a solution.
After unpacked and for drinks after the tap water, the best thing we can do is to buy our food in reusable containers. Also ask whether the containers are transported for example empty throughout Germany, or whether North German beer flows into the empty bottle of Bavarian beer and vice versa. Next question, what energy and water does it cost to clean the containers. Composite packaging or cans that are easy to recycle are the better alternative according to some studies. However, in such studies, it is necessary to look closely at what is being compared. Ultimately, it is important to close regional cycles.
Next question, whether the containers should be made of glass or plastic - glass is recycled more often, plastic is lighter and means less energy during transport.

Many things after an event are actually thrown away, although others could still do something with it. It is more convenient for us not to repair it than to have a stand at the flea market or to have to send it for little money. But the good feeling of doing the right thing motivates.

This is about living and working in the region, about strengthening the community. The birdhouse from a social workshop or the PV system from the electrician on site (if he has further training). The award criteria of the municipalities must of course be legally secure.
If the work is good, a discreet advertising sign can also draw attention to the craft business in return.

Globally, conventional cotton is an environmental problem due to the use of sprays and the high water consumption. In addition, the textile factories poison entire rivers and exploit people during conventional dyeing.
In addition to ecological cotton, there are other natural fibers with sometimes much less damage to the environment.
In the case of virgin wool, attention must be paid to the certification, which excludes animal suffering.
By the way, there is now also outdoor clothing made of densely woven organic cotton as an alternative to the plastic fibers. Plastic fibers always allow microplastics to enter the wastewater during washing and microplastics in the environment may lead to multi-resistant super germs - a long history.
With the points for clothing, if you do not buy conventional cotton, but sometimes choose recycled and sometimes organic cotton, you can give a full 3 points for both.
By the way, organic is also possible with curtains, tablecloths and bed linen!!!

Unfortunately, many devices can no longer be repaired at all, for example if the control unit breaks down from the washing machine and costs more than a new washing machine. And yet there are workshops that also repair mobile phones, washing machines, lawn mowers, etc. - and even if it is as expensive as a new device, it is the good feeling of having done something for a better world again.
