...and Sustainability 

As a result of climate change, environmental degradation and environmental toxins, people around the world are falling ill and dying every day. Several animal species are also threatened with extinction. The consequences of global warming not only have a negative impact on our future lives, but also on the lives of future generations. 
These issues affect all of us and therefore the discussion of the environment and sustainability should be an integral part of studying at HAW. For this we want to get into conversation with you, we want to include the role of individuals and the importance of capitalistically influenced consumer behavior in the discussion and strengthen the awareness for sustainability.
In the form of events, actions, workshops and publications we want to inform about these topics. We want to show how more sustainability can be integrated into everyday life and how you can get involved. It is important to us not to point the moral finger, but rather to educate and promote a debate from which everyone can draw consequences together. Furthermore, we want to establish sustainability goals at HAW and integrate them into the university curriculum.
We also want to continue to support other initiatives that fight for climate protection and contribute to networking at HAW. 

Therefore we, that are Iris (she - medical engineering), Lotta (she - environmental engineering) and Eva (she - environmental engineering), try to change something.  

What is happening at the moment:

We are in contact with the presidium of HAW to make HAW a "climate neutral" place, we are in talks with Studierendenwerk to make the refectories offer more vegetarian and vegan meals. We are exchanging ideas with professors to find alternative/ecologically sustainable ways to generate energy for HAW.  

If you want to get involved or even start your own projects where you need support, feel free to get in touch!
