GREEN PEARLS® – curated for sustainable impact
According to current statistics, a rising number of vacationers aim to “travel sustainable.” In fact, only few realize their green plans. Often information is poor on what green travel is: What exactly is “sustainable,” “responsible,” or “socially and environmentally friendly” travel? Hence, we point…
Walking steadily and calmly in nature while hiking helps us relax, even if our heartbeat goes up. No matter if your trail’s target may be a cozy lodge, enchanted trails, or elevation gain, there are various ways of trekking. Are you up for mountain air?…
It is often difficult to keep track of what is currently growing in the region you live in, nowadays – at least in the urban centers, you could think that basically everything is in season all year round. And it is not unusual that spoiled costumers are surprised that they cannot buy strawberries in the deep of winter. What does it mean for the environment, when we constantly transport foodstuff around the world? There is no question about it: A CO2 disaster.

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.)
