Walter's ecology blog

My theory is that ecology is one of the most important things to defend in the world today but it is only possible if it is made possible for human beings and not only for perfect people. That's why I start this blog. I would like to share what I do and hopefully get cool input from you on what you do for a better planet. That is what I call ecology for normal people. :)

What do I do currently as ecological things

I try to do as much as possible in daily life but here are the major things. I would be interested in feedbacks on your favourite tricks.

Waste optimization
  • Separate glass
  • Separate organic waste
  • Separate PET/plastic when possible
  • Separate aluminum
  • Separate batteries
  • Use as much as possible accumulators and not batteries
Energy sparing

  • Eco light bubles. Cost 12x more, last 12x more and spare 70% of electricity
  • No car - use as much as possible public transportation
  • Completely turn off heating in the summer
  • Water reduction elements in sinks, shower, toilet
  • Shower and no bath

That's all for the moment, what I'm thinking about is:
  • Improve insulation of my apartment (roof insulation, ventilation instead of open windows)
  • Solar heating for warm water and/or electricity production
