Sie kennen die Auswirkungen von Plastik, wedshalb setzen Sie trotzdem auf Plastikverpackungen?
Was halten Sie von Stoffbeuteln?
Hi everyone!
We are doing a project about plasticwaste while shopping. It's an everyday topic but many do not realize this. So we want to make humanity aware of what could be changed with only very less effort. We would be very thankful, if you could fill out our survey: https://ee.humanitarianresponse.info/x/CnaYMccC .
Tank you so much!
So far we made the experience of setting way too high goals. First we wanted to stich all the cotton bags ourselves, which is simply not possible. It would require too much time and would be very expensive to buy the cotton.
Also we are not yet sure, how we should bring our products to the families in the countries.
Hey all! Watch our video to know more about our project. The team members are Jasmin and Florian.
We made an Interview with Mr. Stänz about our topic. Fortunately, we were able to have lunch with him and ask our questions.
What is the difference between industrial sugar and natural sugar?
Basically, there is natural sugar in every raw material or food you harvest. However, during processing, the substances to process this sugar in the body are destroyed. For this reason, processed foods can not be well processed in the body, because he has to fall back on his reserves. When there are no more reserves, the sugar is stored. For this reason, people get fatter.
What does an optimal nutrition day look like for you?
As much natural food as possible. I personally grind my own oatmeal, because many substances are lost during processing. Nevertheless, I also produce my own chocolate when I want to eat dessert.
What are the dangers of sugar?
In the past, there were poor people who worked a lot in the sugar field and ate sugar beets all day. They had extremely white teeth. The rich people ate the processed sugar and got rotten teeth. This is again due to the substances that are lost. However, back pain, headaches and of course diabetes are also part of excessive consumption. When you try to give up sugar you also have much more energy than normal. I have done this 3 times in my life and the feeling is unbelievable. Many of people's ailments would disappear if they gave up sugar.
Referring to our self-experiment. Will we already notice changes after one week without industrial sugar?
Probably not. You would have to do the experiment for a whole month to really notice anything. However, the beginning is always the most difficult and I think that one week is already hard enough for you. Maybe you have the motivation to extend the experiment. If you can do it for a week, you can also do it for a month.
Thank you for your time!

restructuring of our project
Nach unserem Tief von letzter Woche, konnten wir die Motivation mit neuen Ideen wieder finden!
Da es fast unmöglich ist geeignete Sponsoren zu suchen, schalten wir nun einen Gang zurück. Wir schwitzen nämlich fiktives Geld und berechnen schlussendlich den Betrag, den wir an "Friends for the earth" hätten spenden können, falls wir Sponsoren gefunden hätten.
Also verbrennen wir, wie geplant, unsere Kalorien über einen Zeitraum von 4 Wochen und rechnen pro 100 Kalorien mit 10 Schweizer Franken. Zusätzlich werden wir mit weiteren sportbegeisterten Leuten in Kontakt treten, die uns helfen unser Geld zu schwitzen. Möglichkeiten gäbe es sicher durch Valeria. Wir werden sie in einem weiteren Schritt anfragen. So wird also unsere Kollaboration aussehen!
Die Möglichkeit doch noch an Sponsoren zu gelangen, lassen wir weiterhin offen. Vielleicht werden doch noch spendenbegeisterte Unternehmer auf unser Projekt aufmerksam.
So nimmt unsere Projekt doch noch eine gute Wendung und wir freuen uns schon bereits jetzt auf unsere intensiven Sportwochen! Diese werden wir auf März ansetzen.
- Goals?
The plan for today is to collect the questions for our collaboration partners in Kerala.
We also want to collect the questions for the experts in the canton of Zurich.
- Who is doing what?
Lara will prepare the questions for our collaboration partners and Brian will prepare the questions for the experts.
- State of the art?
We are in the starting blocks of our project. We will be ready to send out the interview next week at the latest and as soon as we receive the answers we can start comparing.
___________________________________________________________________________________
- What have we achieved?
We have achieved to collect all the questions and will be ready to send them out next week.
Teamwork: Brian & Lara

Hallo Miteinander
Im Fach Technik und Umwelt haben wir die Möglichkeit ein Collaboration Project, also ein Projekt mit Schülern aus dem Ausland, durchzuführen. In unserem Fall ist es uns gelungen unser Projekt unser Projekt mit drei SchülerInnen aus der Türkei zu machen. Es besteht aus einer Umfrage über das Wissen von Umweltverschmutzung und das Pflanzen von Bäumen sowohl in der Türkei als auch in der Schweiz.
Es würde uns freuen, wenn ihr uns unterstützen könntet, indem ihr die untenstehende Umfrage ausfüllt.

How to promote the projects on the official project account dontwaste_myenergy ☺️

(extract from The Horse 19/20, by Lars, former student of Team Wetzikon Zurich)
- Make one good post per week about your topic. Attention - it is not about the quantity of mail but the quality is important. I recommend one to a maximum of three posts per week. I have made good progress with this amount of mail.
- Follow other people or organizations with the same or similar topics.
- Like and comment other mails. This is the only way to show that you are active and interested. But when commenting it is important that you do not just send an emoji. Try to give a constructive feedback with your own opinion and experience.
- Things also moved quickly when I wrote to complete strangers to help me promote my account. I noticed that it is not worthwhile to write to organizations with more than 1000 followers. With these organizations you usually don't get an answer. Try to write to people with the same or similar number of followers.
- Do in return on point 5 on promotion on your account. Mark people in your mail, make meaningful stories about other people's accounts etc.
- As the most important and last tip I give you on the way: be creative and have fun with what you do!
I hope that with these tips you will quickly reach a large crowd of people worldwide.
