Transporting goods by plane from one side of the world to theother generates 200 to 400 times more GHG than transportingthem by truck over 50 km.Try to eat local products that are inseason:they are good for your health, they are much tastierand transporting them doesn’t generate as many GHG.
Leta 2001 se je iz prometa sprostilo 27 % vseh delcev, ki so se sprostili v zrak v Evropi.Povprečno pri eni od treh voženj z avtomobilom se peljemole 2 km.Če se peljemo s kolesom, ne pripomoremo le k zmanjšanjuprometa, ampak tudi emisij.Kolesarjenje do trafike ali pekarne ni le zdravo,ampak je tudi zastonj!
Carpool or take public transport!
≤Prisedite k drugim ali izberite javni prevoz!
A great solution for longer journeys is carpooling or publictransport, since more people can be transported in one singlevehicle.Doing a 1,200 km trip by car will generate the same emissions as a train going all around the world!
Odlična rešitev za daljša potovanja je potovanje v skupini z enimavtomobilom ali javni prevoz, ker se lahko več ljudi pelje v enem vozilu.Na potovanju, dolgem 1 200 km, bo avtomobil proizvedel enako količino emisij CO
amount of CO2
2, kot bi jo vlak na poti okoli sveta!
If you have to use your car…!
≤Če se morate peljati z avtomobilom …
• Letting your car warm up while stationary can make it consume up to 50% more fuel.If you start driving immediately, the engine will reach its working temperature quicker.• Try to have the right tyre pressure:if the pressure is down by 0.5 bars, you need 5% more petrol and you also give off more pollution.• Driving with the air conditioner turned on increases its consumption by 30%;driving with windows open only increases consumption by 5%.• Using a roof rack on your car can increase fuel consumptionby 20 to 30%.Bicycles are better off when attached at theback of the car.• 4th or even 5th gear is the most economical in terms of fuel consumption.• Respect the speed limit:you will save petrol, produce lessexhaust fumes and of course drive more safely!
• Ko avtomobil segrevate v mirujočem stanju, lahko porabi tudi do 50 %več goriva.Če začnete z vožnjo takoj, se bo motor hitreje segrel nadelovno temperaturo.• Poskušajte vzdrževati ustrezen tlak v pnevmatikah:če je tlak za 0,5 baranižji, porabite 5 % več bencina in bolj onesnažujete zrak.• Pri vožnji z vklopljeno klimatsko napravo se poraba goriva poveča za 30 %.Zaradi vožnje pri odprtem oknu se poraba goriva poveča za 5 %.• Z uporabo strešnega prtljažnika na avtomobilu se poraba goriva povečaod 20 do 30 %.Kolesa je bolje pritrditi na zadnjo stran avtomobila.• Četrta ali celo peta prestava sta najbolj varčni v smislu porabe goriva.• Upoštevajte omejitev hitrosti:prihranili boste bencin, proizvedli manjizpušnih plinov in seveda vozili varneje!
Don’t drive…ride!
≤Izbirajte domače izdelke!
27% of the particulate matter emitted in Europein 2001 came from transport.On average, oneout of three journeys we do by car is to go onlyas far as 2 km.Taking the bicycle out for a ridenot only helps reduce traffic but also emissions.Biking to your local newsagent or to the bakeryis healthy and also doesn’t cost any money!
Pri letalskem prevozu izdelkov z enega konca sveta nadrugega se proizvede 200- do 400-krat več TGP kot priprevozu s tovornjakom na razdalji 50 km.Poskusite seprehranjevati z domačimi sezonskimi izdelki:dobri so zavaše zdravje, so veliko bolj okusni, njihov prevoz pa neproizvaja toliko TGP.
The quality of drinking water in the European Union is generallyvery good, and tap water is safe to drink nearly everywhere.However, all water must be treated before it is safe to drink, asit may be contaminated by substances that can be washedinto groundwater and surface water (fertilisers, pesticides,industrial toxic chemicals or germs that may have entered fromhuman or animal waste).The treatment of water is a costlyand energy-consuming process.
Po svetu postaja voda naravni vir, ki ga najbolj primanjkuje:manj kot 1 % vodena planetu ljudje lahko uživajo in več kot 1,2 milijarde ljudi nima dostopa dozdrave pitne vode.Na srečo je vode po Evropi na splošno dovolj, čeprav sta nanekaterih področjih južne Evrope pomanjkanje vodni in suša čedalje pogostejša.Količina vode na celini ni problematična, vendar kakovost vode in upravljanje z njo zdaleč nista zadovoljiva in postajata precejšnje breme.
Globally, water is becoming one of the scarcest natural resources:less than 1% of the planet’s water is available for human consumption and more than 1.2 billion people have no accessto safe drinking water.Fortunately, across Europe water isgenerally plentiful, although in some areas in southern Europewater stress and drought are increasingly common.While thequantity of water on the continent is not so much of an issue,the quality and management of our water is far from satisfactoryand faces considerable pressures.
Kakovost vode v Evropski uniji je na splošno zelo dobra in vodo iz pipe lahkovarno pijemo skoraj kjer koli.Vseeno pa je vso vodo treba pred uživanjemobdelati, ker je mogoče, da je onesnažena s snovmi, ki se lahko izpirajo v podtalnico in površinske vode (gnojila, pesticidi, industrijske strupenekemikalije ali klice, ki so v vodo prišle s človeškimi ali živalskimi odpadki).Obdelava vode je drag postopek, ki porabi veliko energije.
Reducing water pollution is important not only because wewant to use the water, but also to protect the plants and animals that live in our rivers, lakes and seas.Although the EU has done a lot to reduce pollution over the last 30 years,there is still much to be done and we can each play a part.
Zmanjšanje onesnaženosti vode je pomembno ne le zato, ker želimo vodouporabljati, ampak tudi zato, da zaščitimo rastline in živali v rekah, jezerih inmorjih.Čeprav je EU v zadnjih 30 letih veliko storila za zmanjšanje onesnaženja,je treba narediti še veliko in vsak od nas lahko pri tem sodeluje.
Approximately 35% of the water that comes out of our tapscomes from surface waters (lakes, rivers), of which 20% isseriously threatened by pollution.The remaining 65% comesfrom groundwater also called ‘aquifers’, which hold the rainwaterthat seeps through the soil.
Približno 35 % vode iz naših pip prihaja iz površinskih vod (jezer, rek), od katerih 20 % močno ogroža onesnaženje.Ostalih 65 % vode prihaja iz podtalnic, imenovanih tudi „vodonosniki“, ki zadržujejo deževnico, ki pronicaskozi zemljo.
13 are one of the main causes of surface water pollution.Theycause an accelerated growth of algae and higher forms ofplant life which starves other plants and animals of oxygen,light and space.This phenomenon, called eutrophicationharms our biodiversity and pollutes our surface waters.A visual sign of ‘eutrophication’is the presence of excessivealgal blooms.

You may be surprised to know that industry, although it is responsible for some pollution, is not considered to be the biggestculprit.It is relatively easy to legislate so that industry is forcedto reduce water consumption, improve efficiency and reducepollution.The biggest problems are caused by the use of fertilisers and pesticides.As water comes into contact with these, itcarries them into the rivers and then the sea.Nutrients, mainlyfrom fertilisers and agricultural runoff (manure from animals),
Morda boste presenečeni, da industrija, čeprav je deloma odgovorna zaonesnaženje, ne velja za največjega krivca.Dokaj preprosto je oblikovatizakonodajo tako, da je industrija prisiljena zmanjšati porabo vode, izboljšatiučinkovitost in zmanjšati onesnaževanje.Največje težave povzroča uporabagnojil in pesticidov.Ko voda pride v stik z njimi, jih odplakne v reke in potemv morje.Hranila, ki so pretežno sestavljena iz gnojil in poljedelskega odtoka(živalska gnojevka), so eden od glavnih vzrokov onesnaženja površinskih

Kako lahko vodoodgovorneje uporabljam?
Rainwater is the perfect alternative to drinking water.You cancollect rain water by placing empty buckets or other recipientsoutside.You can use this water to wash your car or waterthe garden.Keep in mind that the best time for watering yourgarden is in the evening.
Povprečno 7 % porabljene pitne vode je dejansko namenjene pitju inkuhanju.22 % se porabi za pranje posode in perila, 20 % za sanitarnesisteme, 39 % za kopanje in prhanje ter 6 % za pranje avtomobilov inzalivanje vrtov.Hipko je zbral nekaj odličnih namigov, s katerimi boste vodoodgovorneje uporabljali:
On average, 7% of the drinking water we use actually goes todrinking and cooking.22% is used for dishwashing and laundry,20% for sanitary systems, 39% for baths and showers, and 6% for car washing and watering the garden.Jiffy has gathered some great tips for you to use water in amore responsible way:
Deževnica je odlično nadomestilo za pitno vodo.Deževnico lahko zbirate v prazna vedra ali druge posode, ki jih nastavite na prostem.S to vodo lahko operete avtomobil ali zalijete vrt.Zapomnite si, da je najboljši čas za zalivanje vrta zvečer.

A tap that drips all day wastes around 25 litres of water.If weturned the tap off while brushing our teeth we could save up to12-15 litres.If all Europeans turned the tap off whilst brushingtheir teeth, the water saved in one year would fill up 6,000Olympic swimming pools.A shower uses 4 times less waterthan a bath.Take a shower, be eco-friendly and save moneyon your water bills!
Pipa, iz katere voda ves dan kaplja, porabi približno 25 litrov vode.Če bimed umivanjem zob zaprli vodo, bi prihranili 12–15 litrov vode.Če bi vsi Evropejci med umivanjem zob zaprli vodo, bi v enem letu prihranili dovoljvode, da bi napolnili 6000 olimpijskih bazenov.Pri prhanju se porabi 4-kratmanj vode kot pri kopanju.Prhajte se, ravnajte okolju prijazno in prihranitedenar pri računih za vodo!
Do not throw any chemicals down your sink – no paint, varnish, insecticides or medicine.Avoid throwing any oil down your sink – no frying or seasoningoil, and certainly no engine oil!
Ne zlivajte v odtok nobenih kemikalij – nobene barve, laka, insekticidov ali zdravil.Izogibajte se zlivanju olja v odtok – nobenega olja za cvrtje ali solate in zlastinobenega motornega olja!

Vsi ti izdelki lahko poškodujejo delovanje sistema za čiščenje odplak, s tem ko uničijo favno in zamašijo cevi.Preverite, ali so v vaši bližini centri za zbiranje zdravil in olj, da lahko stara zdravila in porabljeno olje odnesete tja.
Try to run your washing machine and dishwasher when theyare full.If not, use the half load function of your washingmachine or dish washer when you have less to wash.A halfload will not only help save on water but will also save on electricity.
Poskušajte prati perilo ali posodo, ko je stroj poln.Če morate oprati manjšokoličino, na pralnem ali pomivalnem stroju uporabite funkcijo za pranjepolovične količine perila ali posode.Ta funkcija ne bo pripomogla le k varčevanju z vodo, ampak tudi z električno energijo.

It also keeps a check on climate change, mitigation of naturalhazards, etc. The financial value of the goods and services provided by ecosystems and species – by life on Earth – hasbeen estimated at 26 trillion euros per year – nearly twice thevalue of what humans produce each year.
Biotska raznovrstnost pomeni raznovrstnost življenja vseh oblik –raznovrstnost vrst, genetska raznolikost znotraj ene vrste in ekosistemov.Biotska raznovrstnost omogoča velik obseg ključnih virov, kot so hrana, čistavoda in opraševanje.Obvladuje tudi podnebne spremembe, ublažitevnevarnosti naravnih nesreč itd.Ocenjena finančna vrednost dobrin in virov, kijih omogočajo ekosistemi in vrste – v primerjavi z življenjem na Zemlji – je 26 bilijonov EUR na leto – skoraj dvojna vrednost tega, kar vsako letoproizvede človek.
It has been estimated that the current global extinction rate forbiodiversity loss is 1,000 to 10,000 times higher than the naturalbackground extinction rate. The principle causes of this loss are intensive production systems, altering habitat for construction,extractive industries, over-exploitation of natural resources viafishing and hunting, pollution and global climate change.
V nasprotju s splošno razširjenim prepričanjem je danes glavni problem, ki ga povzročajo sedanji vzorci rabe virov, njihov vpliv na okolje in nemorebitno pomanjkanje nekaterih neobnovljivih virov.Na primer:na videzneomejena razpoložljivost fosilnih goriv in posledično njihova obsežna uporabapri pridobivanju energije sta povzročili nekatere najresnejše okoljske probleme:onesnaženje zraka in globalno segrevanje.V primeru obnovljivih virov (rastlin, rib, živali) je pomanjkanje že samo po sebi okoljski problem.Na primer,izumrtje nekaterih vrst pomeni izgubo biotske raznovrstnosti in pozidavazemljišč pomeni izgubo življenjskega prostora.
Contrary to widespread belief, today the main problem generatedby current patterns of resource use is their environmentalimpact, and not the possible scarcity of certain non-renewableresources. For example, the seemingly limitless availability offossil fuels, and consequently their extensive use to generateenergy, has produced some of the most serious environmentalproblems: air pollution and global warming.
Ocenjeno je bilo, da je sedanja stopnja izumiranja zaradi izgube biotskeraznovrstnosti po svetu 1 000 do 10 000-krat večja od stopnje izumiranjazaradi naravnih vzrokov.Glavni vzroki za to izgubo so sistemi intenzivneproizvodnje, spreminjanje življenjskega prostora zaradi gradnje, ekstraktivnedejavnosti, preveliko izkoriščanje naravnih virov z ribolovom in lovom,onesnaževanje in globalne podnebne spremembe.

Some facts ...
Nekaj dejstev ...
• In Europe, some 42% of mammals and 45% of butterflies are under threat.80% of fish stocks face collapse or are ofunknown status due to overfishing.• In Europe, common farmland and woodland bird numbersdeclined by 71% between 1980 and 2002.• But 18% of the (EU15) territory now enjoys protected statusas part of the EU's Natura 2000 network.
•V Evropi je približno 42 % sesalcev in 45 % metuljev ogroženih.80 %zalog rib grozi izumrtje ali njihov položaj ni znan zaradi prelova.•V Evropi je med letoma 1980 in 2002 število navadnih podeželskih ingozdnih ptic padlo za 71 %.•Vendar je 18 % ozemlja (EU15) zdaj zaščiteno v okviru omrežja EU Natura 2000.
Each year in the European Union alone we throw away 1.3 billion tonnes of waste – some 40 million tonnes of it ishazardous.This amounts to about 3.5 tonnes of solid waste forevery man, woman and child.Add to this total a further 700 million tonnes of agricultural waste and it is clear that treating and disposing of all this material - without harming the environment - becomes a major headache.By 2020, the OECD estimates that we could be generating 45% more wastethan we did in 1995.Further, most of what we throw away iseither burned in incinerators or dumped into landfill sites.Both waste treatment methods have a negative impact on the and methane into environment.The waste discharges CO2
sproščajo CO2in metan v ozračje, kemikalije in pesticide pa v zemljo in podtalnico.Čeprav se odpadkom ne moremo izogniti, lahko vsi pripomoremo k zmanjšanju količine svojih odpadkov.

How can I reducewaste?
Kako lahko zmanjšamkoličino odpadkov?
On average, one European produces 1 kg of waste per day.Toreduce this large quantity, the rule is "Reduce - Reuse -Recycle":
En Evropejec povprečno proizvede 1 kg odpadkov na dan.Pravilo zazmanjšanje te velike količine odpadkov je „Zmanjšati – Ponovno uporabiti –Reciklirati“:
Minimise packaging by buying in bulk or buy reusable products:• Buy loose fruit and vegetables instead of pre-packed.• Buy concentrated products that use less packaging.
Ločujete lahko papir, karton, les, aluminijaste pločevinke, plastenke,steklenice in kozarce, električno opremo, strojno opremo IT, baterije ...Vendar pa se bo vedno zgodilo, da boste morali kupiti pakiranje, ki ga neboste mogli ponovno uporabiti.V takem primeru poskusite izbrati pakiranje,ki se lahko reciklira in ga ločujte.Staro kartonasto pakiranje se bo uporabiloza izdelavo časopisa, stare steklenice se bodo uporabile za izdelavo novihsteklenic, plastenke pa bodo ponovno oživele v obliki nove embalaže,gradbenih materialov ali celo oblek!
You can sort paper, cardboard, timber, aluminium cans, plastic bottles, glass bottles and jars, electrical equipment, IT hardware, batteries…There will always be packaging you have to buy and that youcan't reuse.For this, try to choose recyclable packaging andsort it.Your old cardboard packaging will be used to make yournewspaper, your glass bottles will be used to make new glassbottles, and your plastic bottles will live again as new packaging, building materials or even clothes!
Zmanjšajte količino embalaže s kupovanjem izdelkov v razsutem stanju alikupujte izdelke, ki jih je mogoče ponovno uporabiti:•Kupujte sadje in zelenjavo v razsutem stanju namesto predhodno pakiranega.•Kupujte koncentrirane izdelke, ki potrebujejo manjše pakiranje.
Disposable cleaning wipes are responsible for 50 kg of wasteper year in an average European household.If every singlehousehold used them for both hygiene and cleaning, the sumwould make an additional 9 million tonnes a year!
Zaradi papirnatih brisač za gospodinjstvo v povprečnem evropskemgospodinjstvu nastane 50 kg odpadkov na leto.Če bi jih v vsakemgospodinjstvu uporabljali za higieno in čiščenje, bi zaradi tega nastalododatnih 9 milijonov ton odpadkov na leto!
By usingdusters or rags for cleaning, you are not only avoiding all thatwaste, you are actually giving a second use to something youwere about to throw away!
Z uporabo krp za prah in cunj za čiščenje se ne boste le izognili odpadkom, ampak boste dejanskoponovno uporabili nekaj, kar ste nameravali zavreči!
Try and find other uses for things, instead of throwing them away:• Refurbish:give your sofa a new trendy look instead of buying a new one.• Repair:get your shoes re-heeled so they last longer.• Find a new use:old documents as draft papers or plastic containers for storage.• Give it away or sell it second-hand.
Namesto da stvari odvržete, poskusite najti še druge načine za njihovouporabo.•Obnovite:podarite kavču nov in moderen videz, namesto da kupite novega.•Popravite:dajte čevlje popraviti, da bodo zdržali dlje.•Najdite novo uporabnost:stari dokumenti za papir za osnutke ali plastične posode za shranjevanje.•Podarite ali prodajte kot rabljeno blago.
Batteries contain harmful chemicals and metals and shouldtherefore be disposed of carefully in the appropriate collectionpoints in your area.Alternatively you could also use rechargeable batteries.
Baterije vsebujejo škodljive kemikalije in kovine in jih je zato treba previdnoodlagati na ustreznih zbirnih mestih v vašem kraju.Druga možnost pa je tudiuporaba baterij, ki jih je mogoče ponovno polniti.
Even compared with a paper bag of similar volume, the production of a reusable plastic bag needs 3 times less water.Moreover, it will release 80% to 90% less GHG and acid gasesinto the air!
Celo v primerjavi s papirnatimi vrečkami podobne velikosti se pri izdelaviplastičnih vrečk za ponovno uporabo porabi 3-krat manj vode.Poleg tega sebo v zrak sprostilo 80 % do 90 % manj TGP in kislih plinov!
If we use a shopping basket we would be minimising our environmental impact even more.

Being aware, for instance, of the origin of the products we buycan help dissuade companies from marketing goods that harmthe environment.Responsible tourism can help preserve thebeauty of those areas that we like to visit.
Zavedanje o poreklu izdelkov, ki jih kupujemo, nam lahko pomaga, da seodvračamo od podjetij, ki izdelujejo okolju škodljive izdelke.Z odgovornimturizmom lahko pripomoremo k ohranitvi lepot na tistih področjih, ki jih radiobiskujemo.
Given the speed of technological innovation many of us aretempted to get a new mobile phone, a state-of-the-art TV or adishwasher.Electronic waste is growing at 35% per year,each EU citizen produces around 17-20 kg e-waste per year,and until now 90% of this waste has been land filled, incineratedor recovered without any pre-treatment.E-waste contains substances such as heavy metals and chemicals which can be extremely harmful to human health if not disposed of carefully.From 13 August 2005, consumers will be able tohand in to shops their old equipment free of charge when theypurchase a new one on a one-for-one basis.
