Green Thinking and Awareness Raising WG #5

Where are we now?  LACK of information for public, lack of political will, lack of personal action (personal problems come first)  How do we understand it: mountains of waste, pollution, climate change, massive consumption.  Why is it important: we need sustainable development to fight the consequences and have greener planet.

Where do we want to be?  RISE AWARENESS – make it loud.  PREVENT negative factors.  MAKE GREEN a style of living

How will we get there?  Make it personal:  Internet forum;  Campaigns and contests;  Ecologic footprint price tags;  Do it together:  Family days – children and parents activities;  Make it easy:  More recycling points closer to people.

Thank you!
