Last week took place the seventh Local Renewables Conference in Freiburg. Organized by ICLEI and cities of Freiburg and Basel, the three-day program included plenaries, workshops, speeches, guided tours, cross-border travelling and the most delicious chocolate brownies.
The conference started off with a post-Fukushima theme where it became clear that Japan is transitioning towards locally produced renewable energies. Even though the renewable share in the national power supply is still rather low, the interest and commitment is possibly higher than in Europe. Especially fascinating was the energy and community concept of Miyama.

aiforia was recently invited to represent the Green City of Freiburg at Lebanon’s Order of Engineers and Architects’ annual conference and speak on this year’s topic of sustainable development. Yet even more exciting than giving a speech at this prestigious event was the opportunity to some of the ambitious projects and initiatives promoting sustainability in the vicinity of the capital Beirut. One example: The Green Demonstration Hall in Jounieh.

With wonderful weather, superb organization (thank you Lucia, Benedetta, Antonio and Commune di Monza!! È stato bellissimo!) and fantastic people we took part in the last Aquapath project meeting in Monza. Although the Final Meeting is over there is still a lot of communication and, possibly, collaboration ahead of us. In the meantime, you guys can all check out the cool gadgets Aquapath has developed in here: http://aquapath-project.eu/

Those who missed the Aquapath Water-Festival on June 4, 2016 and /or prefer to speak English will have a second chance to get a glimpse of what the “Water Footprint” is all about, and how we all can contribute to a more sustainable use of water on our “blue planet”. We will try to put it in a nutshell, with a short presentation, some intensive discussion (hopefully), the “Water Footprint memory”, and a quiz.

Vielen Dank an alle Teilnehmer/innen!
