Excited to celebrate #WorldEnvironmentDay today! 🌍 As a farmer’s daughter, I’ve had the privilege of learning directly from Mother Nature. Each cycle of planting and harvesting has shown me the importance of balance, resilience, and sustainable practices. These aren’t just lessons for farming—they’re lessons for life. 🟣As we reflect on our relationship with the environment, let’s consider sustainability at every level. It’s about individual actions and corporate responsibility alike. Whether it’s reducing waste, recycling, or supporting eco-friendly initiatives, we all have a role to play. 🟣For business owners, this means integrating sustainability into our business models and operations. It’s not just good ethics; it’s good business. As individuals, small actions like planting trees, starting a garden, or even choosing local produce can make a big difference. 🟣Let’s use today to commit to protecting our planet with joy and enthusiasm. After all, every effort counts in creating a sustainable future for all. 🟣So let’s have some fun while we’re at it—engage in nature, make sustainable choices, and inspire others to do the same. Together, we can make a real impact! 🌱✨

I am loving this transition in protein packaging.

Today's World Earth Day invites us to think again about our impact on the planet and the actions we can take to help keep our environment clean! 🍃✨️ We believe that we are each responsible for the future of the Earth, and we are committed to following the guidelines of the sustainability programme "Together Towards Zero and Beyond" of Carlsberg, one of the world's largest brewing groups, of which Švyturys-Utenos alus is a part. In line with these guidelines, the Group has made significant progress, achieving indicators such as a 40% reduction in CO2 emissions and a 21% reduction in water consumption per hectolitre of beer. 👏 The programme's overarching environmental, social responsibility and governance objectives for 2030 and 2040 are not only leading to the realisation of its core ambition of zero emissions. The targets are also more ambitious in other priority areas: water conservation, responsible alcohol consumption, promoting diversity, equality and inclusion, human rights, and community empowerment. We are pleased to be part of this programme to promote more sustainable brewing and to be more environmentally friendly. Happy World Earth Day! 🌍 

Embrace local, embrace sustainability. 🌱 Local sourcing reduces transportation emissions drastically. Supporting local farmers equals a stronger community. Fresh, local ingredients mean superior quality for your customers. By integrating local sourcing, your commercial bakery doesn't just make delicious food; it becomes a beacon of community support and environmental stewardship.

As Denmark 🇩🇰 and the rest of the World🌍 grapple with recent examples of extreme weather events, it's evident that climate change is knocking on our doors. Rising temperatures, intense storms, and unpredictable weather patterns underscore the urgent need for collective action. Let's turn these challenges into opportunities by embracing a more sustainable lifestyle. Change starts at Home !! 🌍 Embracing Sustainability in Everyday Life: A Guide for Denmark 🇩🇰 Hey Denmark! 🌿 Let's embark on a journey towards a more sustainable lifestyle. Small actions can make a big difference! Here's a roadmap to incorporate sustainability into your day-to-day life: 1️⃣ Waste Less, Recycle More: Denmark is a champion in recycling, but let's take it a step further! Reduce single-use plastics, recycle diligently, and explore creative ways to repurpose items. 2️⃣ Green Transportation: Opt for biking or public transport to reduce your carbon footprint. Denmark's cycling culture is fantastic – embrace it for a healthier you and a healthier planet! Use public transport rather than private vehicles as much as possible. 3️⃣ Conscious Consumerism: Support local and sustainable businesses. Choose products with minimal packaging and look for eco-friendly certifications.

Check your utility bills for detailed information on your consumption and be mindful of it.

Be conscious of water use at home, fix leaks promptly, and consider investing in water-saving devices. 6️⃣ Eco-Friendly Eating: Opt for locally sourced, seasonal produce. Cutting down on meat consumption, even if just a little, can significantly reduce your carbon footprint. Zero waste can be achieved by segregating your food waste responsibly. 7️⃣ Green Spaces: Enjoy Denmark's beautiful nature! Participate in community clean-ups, plant trees, or support local environmental initiatives. Clean these spaces before leaving, and avoid littering. 8️⃣ Educate and Advocate: Share sustainability tips with friends and family. Join local environmental groups and be a voice for positive change. Remember, it's the collective effort that creates a lasting impact. Let's make Denmark even greener! 🌳💚 #SustainableLiving #DenmarkGreen #EcoFriendlyChoices #globalwarming #davos #wef2023 #copenhagen

#FruitTrees4Schools! Growing fruit trees within schools can offer numerous benefits: 1. Educational Opportunities: Students can learn about plant biology, ecology, and environmental science by participating in the planting, care, and harvesting of fruit trees. This hands-on experience fosters a deeper understanding of the natural world. 2. Nutritional Education:Having fruit trees on school grounds provides a tangible way to teach students about the importance of healthy eating habits and the nutritional value of fresh fruits. They can learn about the benefits of incorporating fruits into their diets. 3. Environmental Awareness: Growing fruit trees promotes environmental stewardship and helps students understand the importance of trees in mitigating climate change, improving air quality, and supporting biodiversity. 4.Encouraging Outdoor Activity: Fruit tree orchards provide a natural outdoor space for students to engage in physical activity, whether it's planting, watering, or harvesting fruits. This encourages a healthier lifestyle and reduces sedentary behavior. 5. Community Engagement: Involving students, teachers, and community members in the maintenance and harvesting of fruit trees fosters a sense of community and pride in the school. It can also serve as a platform for collaboration with local organizations or businesses. 6.Sustainability:Growing fruit trees locally reduces the carbon footprint associated with transporting fruits long distances. It also promotes sustainable food production practices and reduces reliance on processed or packaged snacks. Elizabeth Wathuti , O.G.W and the Team👏👏
