One of the great challenges of the climate crisis is that a green transition will require that we all change the way we live. It takes time to change habits, and it may cost a bit. Now, however, koronaviruset forced us to take action to change everyday life in record time. Here are six habits we with advantage can take us in the future.
1. Eat up the food
In these days dig people up the frozen gryteretten at the bottom of the freezer, eat brødskalken and the brown banana and saves restematen to the day after.
We drøyer like the trip to the store one day, as long as we have any left in the cupboards and drawers. In 2018 thrown every Norwegian in average 42,6 kg food. If we continue to exploit resources better, we can cut large quantities of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture.
2. You must not fly on jobbmøte
Karantenelivet has made online meetings to the norwegians. We have morning meeting in the pysjen and release the kjipe traktekaffen from the office. When the home office ceases, there is no reason to stop with the digital meetings.
Thousands of people flying daily to jobbmøter that could have been digital. The route Trondheim – Oslo is among Europe’s busiest. Here we can cut the unnecessary and time-consuming flights, and get back more time with the family and more effective working days.
3. Cycle to work,
in Order to avoid public transport and other people, bikes, many to the store and the workplace.
the Decline in driving has given reduced exhaust and svevestøvutslipp and better air. Collectively, bike and walk is lavutslippstransport and a part of a green future. Until the bus again is an acceptable means of transportation: Put the bike in the stand, it is soon ours!
4. Do not buy things you do not need
When the stores are closed and you are going to keep you at home, saving you not only money, you don’t have to buy clothes that are hanging in the closet, and hamburgerjern to the people who have everything from before. Household consumption is in the world, and provides a high klimaavtrykk.
But miss you really the mall now? Is it not the social sammenkomstene you really yearn for? When the quarantine is over, use your money on restaurants, concerts, theater and swimming with friends and family.
Support the culture and the small manufacturers, and buy quality rather than to fill the booth with stuff you don’t use.
5. The cabin is the best
We have confirmed that the place of australians prefer to holiday is in the cottage! So much we miss the cabin that we will report the change of address there.
Why take the klimafiendtlige flight to Thailand, when you nevertheless want is to sit in the solveggen at the cottage and read old Donaldblader!
Norgesferie is in, it is good for the Norwegian business sector – and climate-friendly!
Despite the challenges, the world has become a little warmer during the koronakrisen.
6. Show solidarity and share with others
The last few days, thousands of people signed up for service for health care. Neighbors shop for each other, children giving away toys to other children.
volunteer spirit displayed both in hjemmesitting, facebookgrupper and hundelufting. People take care of their things and each other in anticipation of better times. We have to continue with.
Despite the challenges, the world has become a little warmer during the koronakrisen. People are re-using, sharing resources and taking care of each other. It’s like that a greener world is.
To prioritize, have good habits and to show solidarity is important both in the upcoming klimadugnaden and in the reconstruction of society after koronaviruset.
To make the transistion does not necessarily mean that things are getting worse – just different.
we get to!
