🔌 Plugged-in electrical household devices waste

🔌 Plugged-in electrical household devices waste energy, even on standby. Did you know that an internet box consumes almost 200 kWh / year by remaining constantly connected? Much more than a washing machine!
To reduce our energy demand, let's turn off and unplug the electrical devices we don't use. A good habit to get into every day.

And you, do you know of other simple habits to reduce our daily energy consumption?

🛍️ Tote bags! These environment-friendly help

🛍️ Tote bags! These environment-friendly helpers are strong and durable. They can often last you over a year.

People use and discard an average of 700 plastic bags per person per year and only recycle 1% of these. Cotton bags are discarded less due to their durable qualities and replace the need for plastic bags altogether. This means that a switch to eco-friendly tote bags can help reduce the amount of plastic waste dramatically and can reduce your contribution by 100’s of bags a year.

On top of that: tote bags are popular and don’t seem to be going out of style anytime soon! There are all kinds of designs - check out our EKOenergy bag!

🇧🇹 Bhutan had stepped onto the international

🇧🇹 Bhutan had stepped onto the international stage as the first country to become carbon negative. It is a small land-locked country in the Himalayas situated between India and China, with a population of approximately 820,000 people.
Effectively, it means the greenhouse gas pollution the country produces is not only offset by its extensive forests but thanks to the generation and export of renewable energy it is carbon negative.

Most of Bhutan is covered by a dense forest. About 72% of the country is woodlands that act as a natural carbon sink, absorbing vast amounts of carbon dioxide. This is how the country is carbon negative; that and the fact that it's relatively underdeveloped. Most citizens work in forestry or agriculture, so the country emits less than 2.5 million tons of CO2 each year.

It is important to recognise that Bhutan is a small, non-industrialised nation and their environmental method would undoubtedly see challenges at a larger scale, however it is still an extraordinary feat!

Fossil Banks, No Thanks!. The latest annual report

Fossil Banks, No Thanks!. The latest annual report on big banks' fossil fuel funding is just out, and the findings are alarming. As the climate crisis deepens, the world's biggest banks are making it worse by pouring more and more money into fossil fuels - and America's largest banks are doing the most damage of all. Learn more and take action at bankingonclimatechaos.org

⚡To save water and energy (and therefore money)

⚡To save water and energy (and therefore money) during a laundry, it is important to choose the right washing programme and, above all, to fill the machine properly!

It is preferable to choose the economy programme and to wash your clothes at a low temperature, but it is also important to remember that a full machine uses less water and energy.
For example, if you use an ECO programme with a half-filled machine, you save 15% compared to the normal programme. But you can save up to 50% if the machine is full!

Let's adopt the right habits to preserve our resources!

👭 There is so much going on in EKOenergy that we don’t even have time to share everything! Yesterday the EKO-team got together online and discussed the latest news. One of the most discussed topics was the mid-term evaluation training for our volunteers from France, Italy, Germany and Russia.

Due to Covid restrictions, volunteers based all over Finland met online. The aim of this training, organised by the national agency, is to help volunteers reflect on the past months and process experiences, as well as set goals to be achieved during the time they have left in their projects.

❗ Carbon-negative crops may mean water shortages

❗ Carbon-negative crops may mean water shortages for 4.5 billion people.

The idea of growing crops and trees to absorb CO2 and capture the carbon released when they are burned for energy is a central pillar for most on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s scenarios for the negative emissions approaches needed to avoid the catastrophic impacts of more than 1.5°C of global warming.

But the technology, known as bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), could prove to be a cure with worse consequences than the disease, at least when it comes to water stress.

This is a perfect example for understanding the sentence: there is no easy way out, there is no quick fix. The moment we try to see the bigger picture, this becomes clear.

💧Environmental degradation due to human activit

💧Environmental degradation due to human activities is the cause of many water crises in the world, such as floods, droughts, and pollution of seas and rivers.
⠀
In response, the UN Sustainable Development Goal 6 aims to ensure sustainable water resource management and access to clean water for all.
⠀
Indeed, nearly 2.2 billion people in the world still do not have access to clean water. When we neglect our ecosystems, it becomes more difficult to provide the water we need to survive and thrive.
⠀
This is why EKOenergy sets specific environmental requirements for hydroelectric installations with regard to fish migration, water flow and river habitats.
⠀
For us, the transition to renewable energy must be sustainable. As water is a major source of renewable energy, water and energy are interdependent. For example, the use of fossil fuels generates significant soil and water pollution. The transition to all renewable energy is therefore essential!
⠀
To find out more about our sustainability criteria, please take a look at our website in our bio!

✔️ Wind energy isn’t just reserved for elect

✔️ Wind energy isn’t just reserved for electricity generation on a national scale, small local communities can also benefit from its installation. A single 2.5 MW wind turbine can generate enough electricity to power over 1,400 households annually!

👭 A month ago, EKO-Iciar and EKO-Marie participated in their on-arrival training run by the European Solidarity Corps at @villaelba.fi

On this occasion, many activities and workshops are organised to better understand the principles of volunteering, the Youthpass certificate, the Finnish language and culture and also to get to know each other.

It is the perfect opportunity to meet other volunteers from all over the world who came to contribute to different projects in Finland!

And you, did you know the European Solidarity Corps?

🙅‍♀️Renewable energy is no longer expensi

🙅‍♀️Renewable energy is no longer expensive. Sometimes it’s even cheaper than energy from a non-renewable source!

Making minor changes in your daily life can contribute to a big solution that will help the planet. For example, you can ask your energy supplier if they can provide you with EKOenergy-labelled energy for your home or business.

EKOenergy is always 100% renewable and sustainable! Go green!
