Teachers and children enviromental education = Healthy Future
Dear all, what is realy important in the field of adult environmental education is to educate well teachers. Teachers have a great impact on children and young people, if they have a sufficient knowledge and a good insight on how to teach children about the environment. Why? Because childeren and young people could be a teachers as well, and could be the ones to bring new thoughts and ideas on how to live sustainably and with the lowest possible impact on nature and enviroment into their families, among adults. That was also the reason for our project Healthy Future 4Y & the PLANET, which collected a good practices on this issue, especially how to make responsible decisions (effects of nutrition patterns) with regard to actions that affect the climate.

Daudzi neaizdomājās
Manuprāt, tieši pieaugušie vairāk domā par to, kā labāk šo vidi saglabātu tīrāku un mazāk atstātu traģiskus nospiedumus uz vidu. Mūsdienu jaunieši par to aizdomājās, jo viņi domā, ka viss nokārtosies tāpat. Vairāk būtu jādomā par to, kā izglītot tieši mūsu jauniešus.

A successful informal education initiative in Italy
Dear Luka, it is interesting to focus on informal education initiatives, in particular on those that manage to have an impact on a large target and change the mentality and awareness of many people a little. As successful informal education initiatives, I would like to quote “M’illumino di Meno” (= “I illuminate myself less", but in the title there is also a play on words linked to the assonance with the title of a famous poem by Giuseppe Ungaretti: “M’illumino d’immenso”), which represents the Italian national day of energy-saving and sustainable lifestyles. It was conceived in 2005 by “Caterpillar”, a daily entertainment radio show, and Rai Radio2, its public broadcaster, to ask their listeners to turn off all the unnecessary lights e rethink their consume.
Over the years it has always grown: lights are turned off in the piazzas of Italy, the monuments - the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Colosseum, the Verona Arena, the palaces which are symbols of Italy - the Quirinal, Senate, and Chamber of Deputies, and many citizens' private homes. Citizens participate: guided tours are being organized in low light, energy efficiency is discussed in schools, people dine in candlelight in many restaurants, and astronomical observations are taking place in piazzas, taking advantage of the reduction in light pollution. It has also expanded abroad: the Eiffel Tower, the Foreign Office, and Vienna's Giant Prater Ferris Wheel have also been turned off for “M'illumino di meno”.
This annual campaign was back on March 6th, 2020, and this year it was dedicated to increasing the amount of trees, plants and green around us. But this year all attention is devoted to the tragic epidemic.

That was the reason for our Erasmus + project Healthy Future 4Y & the PLANET with collection of good practices to successful approaches that train children and adolescents as well as youth educators across Europe to make responsible decisions with regard to actions that affect the climate (including healthy nutrition patterns). Good practices are available in english, german, slovak and slovene language. Find more at: https://www.healthyfuture4you.eu/outcome/database/
