What is my degree of sustainability? ( ENSINUS ETP/INETE)

  

I believe that Portuguese society is on a good path. You can see enough electric cars and bicycles through the streets of Lisbon. Many people this year have been using public transport, specially now with the rising of fuel prices. 


In my city for example, all the streets already have the 3 crates instead of a general one. In the Algarve for example most restaurants sell drinks in glass bottles instead of cans or plastic bottles. But even so, I think Portugal still has to evolve a lot in terms of sustainability.


I'm a person who tries to keep a balance. At home, I've already installed LEDs (on tape) so you can spend less power. Many of the times I end up leaving the lights on by forgetfulness but my mother is the opposite of me and always turns off everything be it lights or appliances. 


On my computer, I downloaded the performance so that it consumes less power. When I bathe for example, the water does not heat up soon, it takes about 1 minute. So you don't waste all this water, I'll fill a bucket so I can water the plants in my backyard. I try to gather as much dishes as possible so that I
don't spend so much water.


I believe all these actions can the difference at my own scale. What about you? What is your degree of sustainability?

CIP Tafalla - 8M International Women's Day

THE ROAD TO EQUALITY This March 8, International Women's Day, we want to highlight the importance of care for the development and well-being of citizens. The pandemic has exposed the crisis of the current care model, and that it does not work without the work of thousands of women. Care is essential to sustain life, but it is often free, invisible, precarious and feminized. It continues to fall mostly on women and the equitable distribution of care responsibilities is a pending challenge and an opportunity to build a more egalitarian society. We cannot forget that all people are born interdependent and in need of care, and that is why we want to once again underline the need to make a change in the approach to care. It is essential to overcome gender inequalities, roles and stereotypes and raise awareness among all citizens to give visibility and value to the tasks that sustain life, both physically, emotionally and mentally. But what are we talking about when we talk about "c...
