Good ecological practices<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Since 2013, the Foundation for Sustainable Development has been managing the EkoCentrum, a restored place that bears the values of sustainable development and provides rooms for associations. The FER has put in place rules for the operation of this place in order to promote an eco-responsible management for its staff and the users of the place.<\/p>\n

In terms of energy flows and the building, the association has implemented the following actions:<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span> install a heat pump that runs on renewable energy and electricity[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span> install solar panels that provide energy for the lanterns in the courtyard[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span> install a grass roof for insulation[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span> use rainwater for toilets[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span> use local artisans for building sites (carpenters etc.)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]On the purchasing side:<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>use vegetarian or vegan catering with organic and seasonal products[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span>\u00a0 <\/strong>buy from short circuits[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>select partners from the social and solidarity economy[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/i><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>regulate the catering of the users of the premises by imposing vegetarian or vegan food only[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator type=”normal” color=”#009444″ thickness=”1px”][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

What was the trigger?<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The accumulation of problems related to the climate crisis led the team to want to act. The development of a larger team of volunteers and supporters around 2010 required the establishment of common rules and was an opportunity to reflect on eco-responsible practices.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator type=”normal” color=”#009444″ thickness=”1px”][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Running the project<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The good practice initiatives are generally individual (employee and volunteer) and linked to values shared in private life, then shared with the group and validated during team meetings.<\/p>\n

The criteria related to a vegetarian diet, ideally vegan, are the result of an initiative of a team of educators (addressing the climate crisis). This point is regularly reviewed and discussed with the new members of the team. Despite the facts that prove the need to change the food system, this is a difficult topic, even for environmental activists.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator type=”normal” color=”#009444″ thickness=”1px”][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
