SUMMARY:Conscious Consumerism – How to become a hero
DESCRIPTION:Organic wrapped in plastic or non-organic without the plastic? Fair trade from Brazil or local? Fresh tomatoes all year long or just during the warm season? Regional\, fair\, organic\, seasonal… finding options that match all those criteria on your daily life can be an overwhelming challenge. \nShopping “right” isn’t easy\, so a number of labels have been invented to help us navigate the jungle of choices. But\, do you pay attention to the labels in the supermarket? Do you even care or know what they mean? Do you get confused by them? \nThis evening will be all about understanding how to improve the quality of the food that gets to your table. Come\, join us and let’s learn how to make the best choices! \n*Doors open at 19:00\n*Speakers start at 20:00\n*Quickpitches at 21:10 \nWith presentations from:\nJonas LorenzJonas Lorenz studied political science and public professional decision making at the University of Bremen. During his studies he started specializing in Fair Trade coffee certification. Wanting to know more about the coffee cycle from bean to cup he worked with coffee farmers and importers in Colombia and Canada. Jonas currently manages sourcing and sustainability at Cross Coffee\, a roaster based in Bremen. At Forum Fairer Handel he works in advocacy and campaigning. \nAbout Forum Fairer Handel e.V.: Forum Fairer Handel is the association of Fair Trade in Germany.

This is a great campaign by the non profit initiative  the Global Footptint Network.  Earth Overshoot Day is the day we have consumed the entire ecological resources of the world to the fullest for a given year. Each year\, our ecological debt toward the word increases. In other world\, this day comes earlier each year. In 2000\, this day was in early October. In  2016 it took place on August 8. Bottom line: today humanity uses the equivalent of 1.6 Earths to support our consumption and absorb our waste \nContact: Hadar Badt (dudlyh@gmail.com)HALMHALM is the first German made - Glass Straw - reusable - sustainable and it even look sexy! \nWe at HALM believe that the answer to 3bn straws used every day is not convince people to not use a straw but actually present them a positive alternative.\nWe promised to be a plastic free product in the full value chain and came across a lot of boundaries.\nApart from that we will invest minimum 50% of all profits into 3 areas: Clean Up - Education - Resarch \nWe are about to launch in May 2017. \nURL: http://www.halm.coContact: Sebastian MüllerSoLaWi Waldgarten (CSA)SoLaWi Waldgarten is a community-supported agriculture project with a farmer in Brandenburg and around 90 members in Berlin and Potsdam. Members get vegetables\, fruits and other groceries once a week which they can pick up at designated pick-up points in Friedrichshain\, Kreuzberg and Potsdam. Depending on the time of year the amount is more than enough for 1-2 people. The farmer produces only to a high quality (Demeter certified) and applies sustainable methods to land and plants like soil conservation and permaculture. With the CSA model the farmer gets a fixed and fair price. A few times a year members go out to the farm and help planting and harvesting\, which is a lot of fun and a great experience. \nJoin our community\, get delicious food and even help to produce it yourself! There are free places for the new season starting in May. \nURL: http://www.solawi-waldgarten.de/Contact: James Topping (info@solawi-waldgarten.de)
