101 STEPS Towards Practical Sustainability in Europe

The years of quiet development are over with the completion of the booklet 101 Steps Towards Sustainability. ECO-COUNSELLING EUROPE is proud of its achievement, just four years after its founding. Already, European eco-counselling is not just limited to the European Union. Projects from 15 countries, from Slovakia and the Czech Republic to Holland, show just how wide-spread activities in the ecological sector can be. Proven, practical projects are 101 steps along the way to sustainability.

Eco-Counselling Europe is true to its motto: action instead of talk. 101 Steps Towards Sustainability show how ecological ideas can be put into practice. The single steps range from a kindergarten project to cooperation with industry. Eco-Counselling acts as an agent for innovation and as a translator from knowledge to action.

Experts from 15 countries make their experience and knowledge available in 101 Steps Towards Sustainability. Each description of a project includes an explanatory text and a contact adress. Each of these steps is looking for imitators who may even do it better!

Since its founding in 1991, Eco-Counselling Europe stands for the transfer of knowhow and reciprocal support for the development of organizations. Under the presidency of Umweltberatung Osterreich, UBO (Eco-Counselling Austria), all 20 partners work together across borders in Eco-Counselling Europe, from Riga and Stockholm to Lisboa.

It is a network which can pull it own weight against international companies and conglomerates. The first results can already be seen: in the Czech Republic, a progressive ecological label could be implemented through lobbying.

101 Steps towards Sustainability should be put into practice - by you! Then sustainability will be 101 more steps along the way to reality.
