How?

sustainable energy

Duurzame landbouw

closed circle argiculture

Why could urban farming be called sustainable?

sustainable houses

sustainable business

More sustainable raw materials

-Reuse; e.g., deposit system

-Recycling; e.g., paper

-Buy fewer new things; e.g., second-hand items

Less greenhouse gas emissions

What can you do yourself?

• buy fewer new clothes, wear clothes longer
• turn the heating down by one degree
• use the  (regular!) bike more often instead of the car or scooter
• travel by train instead of by plane
• take shorter showers (saves water and gas or electricity)
• pay attention to labels on products
• avoid using plastic bags and plastic packaging
• throw waste into a bin, not on the street

Subject Key points

Sustainable        Save the environment, less waste/energy

Footprint             How much Earth is needed for your use and waste

                              NL: 6.3 ha; world average: 2.6 ha

Solutions             1. Sustainable energy (solar, wind, biomass)

                              2. Reuse raw materials (recycling)

                              3. Agriculture (precision, circular)

                              4. Reduce pollution (less CO₂)

Do it yourself     Turn off lights, shorter showers, lower heating

                               Bike/public transport, less plastic, separate waste
