  2. In Edinburgh, a food sovereignty dream takes root 🌻🌿 - Lauriston Farm becomes an agroecological sanctuary, weaving sustainability and community. agroecologymap.org/l/330 #Agroecology #Permaculture #FoodSovereignty #UrbanFarming #Scotland

  3. Technik hilft uns, die Natur besser zu verstehen – z. B. beim Urban Farming auf dem Balkon. Wichtig ist mir dabei die Hoheit über unsere Daten. 🌱

    Im Workshop zeige ich, wie man Bodenfeuchte-Messung mit Arduino und Docker realisiert, ganz ohne Public Cloud. Ein Schritt zu mehr digitaler Souveränität.

    Hier geht's zum Mitmach-Wissen:

  4. Over the past couple of months, we have been quietly building and testing creative small gardens using local materials. These simple innovations show how even limited space can produce food and hope. As the new year begins, we are resuming these projects in communities like Swazi, Lunya, and Namiriro, where we have been visiting, listening, and engaging directly with residents to grow solutions together. #CreativeGardening #UrbanFarming

  5. Best #GreenCities: 12 Greenest Cities In The World And Why - #UnityEnvironmentalUniversity (formerly #UnityCollege)

    "What Makes A City Green?

    "What are green cities? A green city is a city that actively works to foster the health and #WellBeing of its people and the #NaturalEnvironment. Often, we look at government policies, community practices, and infrastructure to determine whether a city is 'green' or not.

    "However, the greenness of a city actually exists on a spectrum and is multi-faceted. There is no such thing as the greenest city. The greenest cities in the world are those that are doing more to be sustainable when compared to other cities. The greenness of a city includes the following factors and more:

    - The availability of #GreenSpaces
    - #PublicTransportation options
    - #Bikeability
    - #RenewableEnergy options
    - #CarbonFootprint
    - #Recycling programs

    "What Makes A University Green?

    "An #EcoFriendly city and an eco-friendly university have a lot in common, including #sustainable buildings, #CommunityFarms and #gardens, and #EthicallySourced goods. For Unity Environmental University, an essential part of going green was completely divesting from #FossilFuels and investing in renewable clean energy instead. Ultimately, being a green university is about prioritizing sustainability as a core value and guiding principle for the institution.

    "12 Greenest Cities In The World

    "#Urban areas around the world are striving to become more environmentally friendly as we continue to grapple with the negative effects of climate change. Many of the world’s greenest cities focus on mitigating those effects by minimizing their carbon footprint, shifting to renewable sources for energy, and improving public transportation. Other cities are taking innovative approaches to integrating green spaces and urban farming.

    "This list of the top 12 greenest cities is the result of a holistic review of the most environmentally friendly urban areas in the world. They are not listed in any particular order."
