GREEN YEAR
One year without buying new products...
Our intention / homepage
We are building a community of people who don't mind a little discomfort in the sake of a higher purpose.
Our intention
Reduction of our own consumption is the most efficient way to reduce our carbon footprint, greenhouse gas etc.
By buying different products and services we decide what is going to be produced next and in what amount.
We are building a community of people who don't mind a little discomfort in the sake of a higher purpose. And who can encourage each other.
Try to multiply your impact by inspiring others. Try to reach years or even decades of your life impact… it’s possible!

Please remember! It is not necessary to go to extremes.
There could be a situation when you can’t avoid purchasing a new product. No problem – you’re still in!
The only goal is to draw attention to increasing overconsumption, the primery reason of all environmental problems.
Why?
Reduction of our own consumption is the most efficient way to reduce our carbon footprint, greenhouse gas etc.
Especially these days when this topic is discussed more and more and general awareness is higher and higher. Now is the time to ask ourselves WHY? WHAT’S MY ROLE IN THIS? WHAT’S THE PRIMARY REASON?
Is it really the GOVERNMENT? Is it really the entire INDUSTRY? Are the POWER PLANTS the real reason?
Or is it PEOPLE, the primary consumers, who are creating an ever-increasing energy demand daily?
Yes! WE are the ones who are in charge. We are buying different products and services. Therefore, we are the only one who decide what is going to be produced next and in what amount. The rest is just reaction to our needs.
But how can I with my one year challenge influence it? Even though I decide to live a green life what will I change? Maybe nothing, maybe all! Try to multiply your impact. Try to reach years or even decades of your life impact… it’s possible!
