We have celebrated another Earth Hour

Once again this year, we marked Earth Hour. On March 22nd, we all turned off our lights for one hour - including citizens, institutions, and many cities across Croatia and the world - to show our support for protecting nature and our planet.

In addition to switching off the lights, we once again partnered with the Zagreb Tourist Board and, as part of the Festival of Lights Zagreb, presented a powerful projection on the façade of the State Archives in the capital of Croatia. The projection told a story about the power of water and the secrets hidden within a single drop.

If you didn’t get the chance to visit the Festival of Lights Zagreb, you can see what it looked like here.

   

Get involved - DONATE for nature protection

Are you swearing? Use it for a good thing!

As Croatian people, and generally people in the Balkans, are well known for our creativity in swear words. Swearing is a common, but really ugly habit, so we decided to use it for a good thing. We, jointly with Bruketa&Žinić$Grey agency, created a campaign in Croatia called “You’re swearing? Donate for nature!”. The main aim of the campaign was to donate 1 EUR in our “Panda Swearjar” each time a swear word gets out, so you undo a bad word with a good deed for nature.

The campaign looked like this (it is in Croatian language only).

It was also supported by a world-famous travel blogger Kristijan Iličić, the first Croat who visited all countries in the world. You can look at his video, but it does contain Croatian swear words.

“Nature will always remain, people are the ones in the trouble”

We organized the second Environmental Policy Forum, bringing together representatives of numerous organizations, associations, and institutions to jointly tackle environmental protection issues in Serbia, and the wider region. One of the key takeaways was that environmental issues represent the greatest generational battle we must continue to fight, for our own well-being.Find out more in the article about how human health, the spread of diseases, and our food systems are directly linked to nature degradation and climate change.

Food forests continue to sprout

We’ve completed the planting of all our food forests so far!

We’re so proud that we can enrich schools and cities with what will soon become open-air canteens, because that’s exactly what food forests are set to become in the not-so-distant future. Pears, apples, plums, cherries… These trees won’t just provide delicious fruit for countless students, but also much-needed shade.
