  1. Environmental Education in Copenhagen - "Nature Connect"

    "Nature Connect" is an innovative project designed to inspire and engage young adults and children in Copenhagen with the natural world through interactive workshops focused on art, community games, and environmental education. Situated in one of Europe's most sustainable cities, this initiative aims to foster a deep connection with nature while addressing pressing issues such as biodiversity loss, climate change, and sustainable living practices.

    Each workshop will feature a blend of art-making sessions, interactive games, and group discussions, fostering creativity, critical thinking, and teamwork among participants. Through collaborative projects and activities, attendees will not only deepen their understanding of environmental concepts but also forge meaningful connections with their peers and the natural world.

    Join us on this journey to reconnect with nature and inspire positive change!


  2. Green Pulse

    Sustainability is an increasingly hot topic and by now is well beyond just a trend or a buzzword. There are more organisations than ever dedicated to dealing with climate change, and there are even more already established organisations, who are switching their efforts to reach Net 0 impact by a certain period of time.

    Green Pulse aims to put the efforts of such organisations to light. Our weekly newsletter is free, fun and light to read, brief and of course packed with value. Each week our readers can expect 3 pieces of news, related to major breakthroughs, advances, developments or improvements in the fields of green energy, recycling and sustainability. In addition to that we offer an opportunity to our readers to engage and dig deeper into the stories we write about. Thus further bringing awareness to both companies within sustainability and the problems they solve.
