GREEN PEARLS® – curated for sustainable impact
Fancy Italy? There are already beautiful railroads through the Alps and nostalgic, historic trains. But it’s about to get even better! Italy’s national railway company, Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane (FS), has announced the introduction of new trains to promote sustainable tourism. The trains will run…
In American and European movies, a “birder” is some kind of nerd with binoculars. But that doesn’t mean Bird Watching Holidays aren’t a cool hobby! My 12-year-old daughter and I love following a bird’s call and trying to spot it in the trees. When we…
In addition to the hotel facilities themselves, it is often the amenities that make a hotel special. In the international hotel industry, there is fierce competition for hotel amenities that no one else offers. Sometimes this takes on bizarre proportions… (a bath made of Orbeez, yoga with flamingos, fresh flowers IN the toilet every day…). This no longer has much to do with sustainability.

Th drink originated in the United States. In the 1920s, soda bars were all the rage, and soda jerks would mix drinks fresh with soda water, milk, ice cream, or egg, depending on the customer’s preference.

In German-speaking countries, cream soda is not a standard supermarket beverage. Instead, it is often only available as an imported product in U.S./U.K. or Asian sections. (Note: Mass-produced brands like A&W (U.S.) and Barr (U.K.) typically contain artificial flavors, colors, and corn syrup.
You’ll have the smallest ecological footprint if you use cream soda syrups that you carbonate or mix with sparkling water yourself.)
