30°C indoors, 34°C outside?! Too hot for me to think properly!
And I’m wondering, how long is it gonna be like that?
Of course I’m scared how hot it can get.
And while our Bundesrat, Albert Rösti, reduces the money for funding for forest conservation Switzerland, the glaciers are melting, plants are getting drier and drier and animals are threatened by the heatwaves.
This is bad!
But instead of falling into desperation, I think it’s on us to choose to take action!
We need to push the politicians to take action. Vote if we have the rights to do so. Sign petitions, and initiatives, write letters to express our needs. Organize!
But also, not only hope for the politicians to do it right. We can take action in our own hands:
Buy local, organic and seasonal vegetables. Reduce our meat consumption. Maybe, this year instead of flying to the Maldives explore the forest close to our home?
Support or participate in projects!
One project that shows me how possible real change is, is Fourmi, la conserverie low-tech. Their goal was to create a local, sustainable business. So they started to look into ways to turn seasonal vegetables and fruits into conserved jars. In 2024 they finally opened their doors. Using a Lytefire they found a way to make their dream come true while even saving on energy prices! Learn more about them here: https://lnkd.in/d4_h_Z8G
P.S. We even have DIY plans to build your own Lytefire, available at a very low price. Support the crowdfunding campaign now: https://lnkd.in/dRUEdMse
