🎄 Did you know… There are about 10.000 damaging particles pr. square centimeter air on a heavily trafficked street in Copenhagen 🚗💨BUT one candle light releases more than 500.000 (!) - also if it’s pure stearin. The most sustainable (and healthy) alternatives seem to be beeswax or plant based stearin, like soy candles

🤶🏼Vidste du, at… Der er omtrent 10.000 skadelige mikropartikler pr. kubikcentimeter i luften på en stærkt trafikeret vej i København. Til sammenligning er der mere end 500.000 (!), hvis du tænder blot ét stearinlys i din stue - også hvis det er ren stearin 😷 De mest bæredygtige (og sunde) alternativer synes at være bivoks eller plantebaseret stearin som fx. soya lys 💚

🎁Christmas: Instead of plastic-ribbons, buy some made from natural products. These can be re-used for many years. And if you think it looks too plain, decorate your parcels with a little extra like a branch, pinecones - or better yet: Candy!! 😛
🎄 Jul: I stedet for bånd, der er lavet af plastic, så køb stofsnore. De kan bruges år efter år. - Og hvis du vil have lidt mere spræl på pakkerne, kan du dekorere dem med lidt ekstra såsom grangrene, kogler - eller bedre endnu: Slik 😋🎄

Christmas: Instead of wrapping paper, make or buy cloth gift bags. Those can be reused year after year, and once they’re too worn, they can be used as rags to clean with 🎅🏼

Jul: I stedet for gavepapir kan du lave eller købe gaveposer af stof. De kan bruges år efter år, og når de engang er ved at være slidte, kan man bruge dem som klude til at gøre rent med 🎄

Happy Halloween! 🎃 I hope you’re enjoying your evening (in spite of all the social restrictions, we live under at the moment) 😊 Here’s some inspiration for a low waste and supercute decoration I saw at . Chestnut heads, dehydrated oranges and an old sheet cut in pieces - that simple! 😃And the oranges can be saved and used again for christmas 🍊

Glædelig Halloween! 🧟‍♀️ Jeg håber, du nyder aftenen (på trods af alle de sociale begrænsninger, vi må leve med p.t) ☺️ Her er lidt inspiration til noget super cute og low waste halloweenpynt, som jeg så på . Kastaniehoveder, tørrede appelsinskiver og rester af et gammelt lagen - og voila! 🤗 Og apoelsinskiverne kan gemmes og bruges igen til jul! 🍊

They’re not just decorations; they’re food! 🎃 Each year up to 95% of the halloweenpumpkins are used only for decorations, and the rest goes to waste 😕
And what a waste! Pumpkins are great for soups, pies, cookies, dips, snacks and toasted seeds! And any leftovers can be composted easily.
Me - I made a delicius soup from hokkaido pumpkin and with red lentils for lots of protein, and now I’m gonna go eat! 😛
De er ikke kun til dekoration; de er også mad! 🎃 Hvert år bliver op til 95% af halloween-græskarrene udelukkende brugt som dekoration, og resten går til spilde 👎
Og sikke et spild! Græskar er vildt gode i supper, tærter, kager, dip, som snacks og kernerne kan ristes - mums! Og den smule, der er til overs, kan snildt komposteres ♻️
Mig - jeg har lavet en lækker suppe af hokkaido græskar og med røde linser for masser af protein, som jeg vil gå hen og mæske mig i nu! 😋

Stop spild af græskar! 🎃🦛🧡

So, if clothing is the no. 1 bad guy when it comes to a sustainable halloween, what can you do to better this? 🎃🌏♻️

• Make your own - use what you already have.
•Borrow from friends or family.
•Go to your local thrift store and buy one there - or put some fun stuff together.
• If you buy, get one that is made of high-quality materials that you or others can wear over and over again.
•Avoid cheap plastic fabrics, which often fray, break and shed microplastics.
•And avoid glitter and sparkles, which are also sources of microplastics.

🇩🇰 Så, hvis kostumet er den værste synder, når det kommer til en bæredygtig halloween, hvad kan du så gøre for at bedre dette? 👻

• Lav dit eget kostume - brug, hvad du allerede har i gemmerne
• Lån eller byt med familie og venner
• Gå i din lokale genbrugsbutik og find ét der, eller sæt et sammen af sjove ting, de måtte have.
• Hvis du køber fra nyt, så køb et kostume i god kvalitet, som du og evt. andre kan bruge igen og igen.
• Undgå billige plastik-materialer, der ofte trevler, revner og udskiller mikroplastik.
• Undgå glitter og glimmer, der også er kilder til mikroplastik

Wild on purpose! 😎🤘🏽Nature's biggest challenge is the lack of space, so every spot counts. Cemeteries are large, undisturbed oases in the cities, and are obvious places to help biodiversity grow 🌱🦋 Our local one, the Nordre Cemetery in Aarhus, decided in 2016 to transform into a forest cemetery over the next 30 years, creating space for the wild nature. Among other things, they remove asphalt paths, let the grass grow, plant more shrubs and let tree trunks decay naturally, making them perfect insect hotels. What do you think of the result so far? 😘

Vild med vilje! 🤘🏽😜Naturens største udfordring er mangel på plads, så hver en plet tæller. Kirkegårdene udgør store, uforstyrrede oaser i byerne, og er oplagte steder at hjælpe biodiversiteten på vej. Vores lokale, Nordre Kirkegård i Århus, besluttede i 2016 at omdanne den traditionelle kirkegård til en skovkirkegård over de næste 30 år, hvor der skabes plads til den vilde natur. 🐞🐛🐜 Bl.a. fjerner man asfaltstier, lader græsset gro, planter flere buske og lader træstammer forgå naturligt, hvorved de udgør perfekte insekthoteller. Hvad synes du om det foreløbige resultat? 🙂

Bellevue Beach today.... 🤬
Every year more than 100.000 sea mammals and 1 million sea birds die from digesting our waste that ends up in the oceans. Be a part of the solution and don’t litter!! 🚳

Bellevue strand i dag... 🤬
Hvert år dør mere end 100.000 havpattedyr og over 1 mio. havfugle af at indtage vores affald, der ender ude i havet ☠️ Vær en del af løsningen og lad være med at smide dit affald i naturen! 🚯

What a charming solution! 😍 The world is facing a massive decline in bird populations: In the EU more than 421 million birds since 1980, and the US nearly 3 billion (!) Birds are essential for pollination and dispersing seeds, so give them a good home like these 🏡🦉😘

Vildt charmerende løsning! 🤩 Verden over falder fuglebestandene massivt: I EU med mere end 421 millioner fugle siden 1980, og i USA med næsten 3 billioner (!) Fugle er essentielle for bestøvning og spredning af frø, så giv dem et godt hjem som disse 🌱😊🦜

Planting day for the balcony! 🌷 I really like the idea of this potting mix - not only is it peat-free, but you add water at home, so it’s compact and lightweight, whereby it saves a lot of gasoline on transportation 🚛😘👌🏽 Peat is problematic, because it takes minimum a 100-1000 years to form, and the ecosystems, where it’s made, are destroyed. Coconut cour like this is a good alternative - or make your own compost 🌱

Plantedag på altanen! 🌼 Jeg ku’ virkeligt godt lide idéen om det her pottemuld - ikke alene er det tørvefrit, men man tilføjer vandet derhjemme, så det er letvægts og superkompakt, hvorved der spares en masse benzin på transporten 🚚💚 Tørv (spagnum) er problematisk, fordi det tager mellem 100-1000 år om at dannes, og økosystemerne bliver ødelagt. Kokosbast og -skaller er et godt alternativ - eller lav din egen kompost 🌱

Spot the bee?? 🐝 Double-tap when you’ve found it! 😃 Bees play a huge role in pollination and biodiversity conservation. Foods like almonds, coffee, apples, pears, avocados, onions and many types of berries all rely heavily on bees for pollination. The disappearance of honeybees, or even a substantial drop in their population, would make those foods scarce. This goes for cotton and many flowers in general too. So take good care of them! 💛🐝💛
Bier spiller en kæmpe rolle i bestøvning og bevaring af biodiversitet 🍒☕️🍎 Madvarer såsom mandler, kaffe, æbler, pærer, avocadoer, løg og mange slags bær er dybt afhængige af bier for bestøvning. Hvis bierne forsvandt, eller der skete et massivt fald i bestandene, ville alle disse fødevarer blive sjældne. Dette gælder også for bomuld og mange slags blomster. Så pas godt på dem! 💛🐝💛

The urban garden community by the dome 🍅 The whole area is really coming together nicely - gonna be a good place to hang when it’s warmer, and this whole C19 is hopefully over! ☀️🌱☕️
Byhavefællesskabet nede ved Domen 🥒 Hele området er ved at blive rigtigt godt - det bliver et fedt sted at være, når det bliver varmere - og hele det her C19 forhåbentligt er ovre! 🚼☀️🥕🥬😘

Happy Valentines Day! ❤️ We don’t really celebrate it, buuuut when he insists... Then what better way to a GoGreenGuide’s heart than a solarcell backpack instead of flowers? 😍😍😍

Glædelig Valentins Dag! ❤️ Vi fejrer den egentligt ikke, meeen når han nu insisterede: Hvilken bedre vej til en GoGreenGuides hjerte end en lækker solcelle-rygsæk i stedet for blomster? 😍❤️☀️

Following up on my last post.. How does meatfree mondays help? 240 million cars. Off the road. Each year. Think about that 😍💭

Som opfølgning på min sidste post: Hjælper det med en kødfri dag? 🐮❌ Hvis alle i verden spiste 15% mindre kød 😊 1 dag om ugen), ville det svare til at tage 240 mio. biler af vejene hvert år. 240 millioner biler. Tyg lidt på dén.. 😉💚

Meatfree monday 😛 Going meatfree could bring a quarter of the reductions in CO2-emissions, that we need to avoid the most severe climate changes 🌏🔥

Kødfri mandag! 😋 En omlægning af vores kost til et sundere og mere bæredygtigt kødforbrug vil kunne bidrage med 1/4 af den globale CO2-reduktion, der er nødvendig for at undgå de værste klimaforandringer 🌍🌡📈

Nomnom! 😛 Picked some more ramsons today, and had a lovely veggie-plate / with ramsons, red pepper and pumpkinseed paste (if you haven’t tried that yet, I really recommend it, it’s so yummy!) 😋 Foraging basically equals a big, fat zero on chemicals, water and co2 - just don’t take the car there 😉

Mums! Plukkede nogle flere ramsløg og fik en lækker, grøn aftensmad med ramsløg, rød peber og græskarkernepasta (hvis du ikke har prøvet det endnu, kan jeg varmt anbefale det; det smager vildt godt rørt op med lidt cremeost og hvidløg) 😛 Fouragering, også kendt som sankning eller selv-pluk, er mere eller mindre = Nul kemikalier, vand og co2 - bare du ikke tager bilen derhen 😉

Yay, the first ramsons are here! 🌱 Foraging saves money, co2, water, energy AND a trip to the gym and/or shrink, as the fresh walk outside will do the same for you 😜 .

Yay, de første ramsløg er her! 🌱 Når du plukker i naturen, sparer du både penge, co2, vand, energi OG turen til fitnesscentret og/eller psykologen, da gåturen i skoven gør det samme for dig! 😄 .
