#Dachbegrünung kühlt im Sommer, filtert #Feinstaub und bietet Lebensraum für #Insekten.

Ob #extensive oder #intensive #Dachbegrünung, die Planung muss sorgfältig erfolgen, damit Statik, Abdichtung und Wasserabfluss stimmen.

Die Kosten starten ab 50 Euro pro Quadratmeter. Viele Kommunen bieten #Förderung und geringere #Abwassergebühren. Ein bepflanztes Dach schützt nicht nur das Haus, sondern steigert auch dessen Wert.

Ruminant farming’s hunger for land has made it a prime engine for colonial expansion around the world; we see this in Brazil, for example, where cattle ranching is driving illegal seizures of Indigenous land. Sheep brought by colonists to Australia “immediately trampled and destroyed all of the native yams and edible vegetables that Aboriginal people had. The land that Aboriginal people never ceded was taken for pastoral practices,” said Emma Hakansson, the Australia-based founding director of Collective Fashion Justice, which advocates for what she calls a “total ethics” fashion system: one that’s fair to people, animals, and the planet. “Animal-derived materials in particular are a focus for us because it’s in those supply chains that all three of those groups are consistently harmed.”
