Points
Six areas where you make a difference
Every challenge you complete earns points. They show in which areas of sustainability you make a difference. Together, all your points take you up level by level.
Climate
Fewer greenhouse gases, for example by cycling instead of driving, eating less meat or wearing a jumper instead of turning up the heating.
Pollution
Less waste and plastic, for example with reusable containers or a zero-waste week.
Nature
More habitat for animals and plants, for example a bee hotel or flowers for wild bees.
Community
Together instead of alone: share, swap and discover places near you.
Water
Saving water and keeping it clean, for example with shorter, colder showers or gentler washing.
Resources
Using things for longer: repair, mend, buy second-hand and waste nothing.
Nobody has to be perfect
We believe everyone can contribute to a more sustainable world. It is not about avoiding every mistake but about learning step by step, without pressure and without guilt.
The challenges and tips build on research from the behavioural and environmental sciences.

Temptation Bundling: Wieso nicht beides?
Wieso nicht beides? Ist die Devise bei dieser psychologischen Technik, bei der wir unser Lieblingshörbuch als Geisel nehmen, um aufwändige Aufgaben leichter zu machen.
