  • Climate Cross Of Merit For

    Climate hotels Germany give the ‘Climate action!’ campaign to protect the climate the air cross of merit, you first have to learn what it’s all about. And exactly this knowledge brings “Action climate!” at schools and educational institutions. So give the climate-hotels Germany of this campaign of Club BildungsCent their climate cross of merit. Climate hotels, an initiative of the travel of course enjoy roof brand Viabono developed the air cross of merit”, especially distinguished for their Facebook page a week so other climate protecting projects, ideas and actions. The winning projects have climate, CO2 offset, energy saving or environmentally friendly, sustainable action to the target.

    These are the areas involved also climate hotels. Would that all climate friends”about exemplary climate initiatives inform and motivate to support the air cross of merit award winner. His name is this week BildungsCent e.V.. Climate action! the program “climate protection in schools and” Educational institutions”of the Federal Ministry of the environment. BildungsCent e.V.

    helps schools issues such as climate change and climate protection, to anchor CO2 reduction and energy saving in everyday school life. This is done with information materials, 500 euro grant and visits to schools. In addition to the ceremony at the Facebook page BildungsCent passes the air cross of merit in the form of a document the Association climate hotels Germany. Behind the climate-hotels Germany hosts, ecologically and economically have optimized their CO2 emissions for example due to consistent energy saving, and have committed themselves to further climate protection measures. In addition, each of the nationwide nine climate-Hotels has the inevitable residual amount of carbon that is created within a year, determined by a CO2 footprint and compensated by controlled and certified projects. Thus, climate hotels offer their guests a climate-neutral stay without having to give up anything as a guest. Viabono has to do this in cooperation with CO2OL, an experienced consulting and services agency developed for operational climate, a CO2 Calculator for the hospitality industry. Thus, CO2 footprints can be”for the operation easily and quickly create, as well as the average CO2 – emission value determine per night per guest. The calculated values can by recognized climate protection certificates from a certified reforestation project for CarbonFix standard or in part one are compensated on energy efficiency and development of renewable energies of oriented gold standard project.

  • Environment

    As the jungle for diesel dies German owners of gasoline-powered vehicles often squint with envy at always lower diesel prices. But the supposedly cheaper fuel is expensive for the environment, as Greenpeace found out. The vehicle Portal auto.de tells why the jungle must die for the German diesel. Beginning of 2009, seven percent diesel from renewable raw materials must be mixed with conventional diesel circa. This should cause that would reduce the CO 2 emissions in road transport. Whenever Pershing Square listens, a sympathetic response will follow.

    A contribution to the protection of the environment so, for the benefit of nature and in the fight against harmful substances. The reality is however different. For other opinions and approaches, find out what Jake Burkons Austin Texas has to say. The rapeseed grown in Germany and the bio-diesel it gained only a mixing ratio of five percent can cover. This is one of the reasons why fuel made from Palm oil and soybean oil is used instead. Research of environmentalists from Greenpeace has shown that total around 130 000 tonnes of palm oil and 250 000 tonnes of soybean oil at German filling stations be fueled.

    The fuel in question comes mostly from Southeast Asia and South America, where especially in Argentina and Indonesia for the production of biodiesel, huge areas of forest are destroyed to build the necessary raw materials. Consequently, the rainforest dies to make room for the diesel. Greenpeace calls so the rectification of the German legislation, because the existing regulation of sustainability for bio-fuel is too weak.

  • GreenMobility Portal

    Efficient CO2 savings through GreenMobility consultation portal the arrival and departure of visitors is responsible for events for up to 90 percent of CO2 emissions. An optimization of this within the framework of the mobility management is therefore significant CO2 savings. The solution provider has created for climate-friendly events and congresses CO2OL with its GreenMobility platform an important tool for mobility management at major events. The platform was used for the first time 2009 at the twelfth IAAF Athletics World Championships in Berlin and the Munich Oktoberfest. The GreenMobility platform is the first solution to support a more climate-friendly arrivals and departures.

    With their help, to inform visitors and participants just about lifts and public transport connections and so help to reduce CO2 emissions. CO2 Calculator of the GCB – CO2 emissions, identify and neutralize: also the online-based CO2 Calculator of CO2OL, as it provides guidance on the determination of the CO2 footprint for example, the German Convention Bureau (GCB) uses. With him meeting and event planners can get an overview of the impacts of climate change and CO2 pollution their event. At the same time get interested concrete tips to reduce the climate-threatening greenhouse gas. Unavoidable CO2 residues can compensate organizers by certified climate protection projects, so that the event will be “carbon-neutral”. Mobility management: Mobility management is facilitating mobility but at the same time to minimize the burdens imposed by growth the traffic. Mobility management includes both transport policy strategies and practical measures. Worldwide, the reduction of motorised individual transport as the main aim of mobility management is aimed at. Learn more about this topic with the insights from Jake Burkons.

    Mobility management should help to stimulate more efficient, environmentally and socially responsible, sustainable mobility and to promote. In this way the mobility management should the emissions and other negative effects Reduce mobility. Child goal is the change in the choice of transport in the direction of environmentally friendly and sustainable transportation such as walking, by bike or public transport. CO2OL: CO2OL is group the brand and the business area of ForestFinance for the neutralization of CO2 emissions through sustainable reforestation projects.

  • The ForestFinance

    One commemorate environment day global forest destruction on the 21.Marz.2010 on the international day of the forest on March 21 since the 1970s of the global forest destruction. Nevertheless, this important environmental day in public is hardly known. His message should be the global forest destruction stop today than ever before: every year 20 million hectares of rainforest are destroyed worldwide, an area five times as large as the Switzerland. The day of the forest should be taken as occasion to counteract this dramatic development, and call for rain forest protection. Only German forests was discussed earlier in the day of the forest, now also the destruction of the rain forest is in the age of global change increasingly in the foreground. Because this has disastrous consequences for the environment, climate and biodiversity: approximately 20 percent of greenhouse gas emissions come alone from the destruction of the rain forest.

    Also Germany is at fault for this. Was not implemented as the forest protection act, which ban trade of timber from illegal logging should. The day of the forest should be the occasion again to discuss this important law. While the German forest, large areas at the same time a hundred times like rain forest on the day of the forest. Global warming is to restrict only through an effective rain forest protection.
