THIS IS WHY

Our planet’s wellbeing involves nature as well as humans. The health of our environment is connected to our personal health. Today we are challenged by severe environmental problems that are primarily caused by human activities: Global warming, soil deterioration, waste increase and the ever-growing amounts of mouths to feed. It is time to think about how we can design and sustain a healthy planet.
