Sustainability
Let's start!
What is Sustainability?
1987: “Our Common Future” (Brundtland report) tells us for the first time about “sustainable development”
2012: Heart Summit: a green sustainable economy
Aspects of environmental sustainability: The use of natural resources The emission of waste products into the
environment Limitating the natural resources of the planet Habits, behaviour and cultural aspects
Development that satisfies our present needs without putting at risk the capacity of future generations to satisfy their own needs
Development that satisfies our present needs without putting at risk the capacity of future generations to satisfy their own needs
What is Sustainability?
Inter-generational Sustainability Use responsable of resources Preservation of ecosystems and biodiversity Keeping of natural balances Role of science and technology.
Intra-generational Sustainability Access to resourses guaranteed to all people. Equitable distribution of wealth Responsability of treating of wastes and slags. Non-violent management in conflicts.
Sustainability: a definition
There isn't a definition of Sustainability accepted all over the world.
Sustainability can be read as a body of knowledge, behaviours and actions which- taken individually or collectively- allow humanity to live indefinitely in harmony with natural systems that host.

How much water???
If all the water on the planet was contained in this acquarium which holds 100 litres…
…what would the volume of natural water corrispond to?…how much natural water is available?…and how much drinking water?

Sustainable development - Nachhaltigkeit
How to learn and how to teach it?
There aren't enough new technologies or political measures to change the minds of the people.
It needs a decade of education towards sustainable development.
Wie lernt und wie lehrt man das?
Es ist nicht genug neue Technologien oder politische Massnahmen zu treffen um die Mentalität der Leute zu ändern.
Man braucht ein Jahrzehnt um die Leute der nachhaltigen Entwicklung zu bilden.
Sustainable development- Nachhaltigkeit
Spreading of sustainable culture, for example , in Italy and other countries, from '70s.
Verbreitung von dem Begriff der Nachhaltigkeit, zum Beispiel in Deutschland schon in den '70er Jahren.

Experiences with nature for children
Education about Nuclear energy

Grnes denken
Erfahrungenschon mit den kleinen Kindern in der Natur
Nuclear energy - Kernkraft
Advantages
Less CO2- Emission environmentally friendly
Decreased demand for oil the price of oil remains constant
Much energy is produced
Vorteile
Wenig CO2- Emission Umweltfreunlich.
Entlastung des Ol-Nachfrage Olpreis bleibt konstant
Hohere Produktion der Energie
Nuclear energy- Kernkraft
Disadvantages Radioactivity is
dangerous There aren't any places in
the world for all the radioactive waste.
The danger of nuclear energy stations being attacked by terrorists.
They cost a lot of money. If any accident happens
then it is a disaster.For example Cernobyl.
Nachteile Radioaktiv und gefärlich. Keine Platz fur die Abfall
auf den ganzen Welt. Kein Schutz gegen
Terrorismus Neuen Bauen sehr teuer. Wenn Unfall = Katastrofe
Tschernobyl
Ecological Footprint
An indicator of Sustainability
Ecological FootprintAn indicator of Sustainability
The Ecological Footprint is a measure of human demand on the Earth's ecosystems. It compares human demand with planet Earth's ecological capacity to regenerate.
It represents the amount of biologically productive land and sea area needed to regenerate the resources a human population consumes and to absorb and render harmless the corresponding waste.
Source: Wikipedia
Biocapacity refers to the capacity of a given biologically productive area to generate an on-going supply of renewable resources and to absorb its spillover wastes.
Unsustainability occurs if the area’s ecological footprint exceeds its biocapacity.

What about us?
Our journey emissions
Calculation of emissions due to our international journey from Italy to FinlandWe calculate emissions of:

Fangen klein an!
Ein einzelner Fels ist wie ein Tropfen auf heiβem Stein.Bitte! Mache etwas mit!
Was soll ich erwarten, wenn ich etwas schlechtes mach?Nicht Gutes! Mutter Natur.
Um einer Tisch zu bauen braucht man einen Baum.Um ein Buch zu drucken braucht man einen Baum?NEIN nicht mal ein BlettBenutze Altpapier!...
Do I consume wisely???
Einen Baumfällen als ein Biβchen Leben töten
Mache mit einem ”Baum” nichts,was er nicht auch mit dir machen soll.
Besser haute wieder verwenden als morgen nichts haben!
Do I consume wisely???
Save water... shower with a friend!
We owe a lot to Thomas Edison - if it wasn't for him, we'd be watching television by candlelight!
Do I consume wisely???
Modern technology owes ecology an apology!
Il n’y a pas de petits gestessi nous sommes 60 millions à les faire
Do I consume wisely???
Si tout le monde s’y meton aura moins de déchets
