Incorporating sustainability into daily life
How we combine environmental responsibility and joie de vivre
Our sustainability journey has rewarded us with a wealth of insights. We are eager to share what we’ve learned with you.
What does sustainability mean to us? We believe it’s about living in sync with nature rather than restricting ourselves. We love being in harmony with nature – finding joy in its splendour, growing vegetables in our garden, managing our woodland, and harnessing the therapeutic qualities of Alpine herbs.
To live more sustainably, we need to actively incorporate sustainability into our daily lives. How do we achieve this? On our sustainability journey, we’ve learned many valuable lessons, and we are pleased to share a few with you here.
Tip 1: Embrace regional food – it’s more than just a trend
Why? Because not only does it taste delicious, but it also reduces your environmental impact. Wondering how you can do this at home? Try visiting your local farmers’ market or requesting local products at your grocery store. Supporting local agriculture goes hand in hand with sustainable living.
Tip 2: Enjoy nature respectfully
Nature is our adventure playground, and we want to keep it that way for our children. Lace up your hiking boots, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and leave nothing but footprints behind. This is not only environmentally friendly but also an act of courtesy towards our beautiful mountain world.
Tip 3: Sustainable shopping and mindful consumption
When browsing through the shops, remember the 4-R rule: reduce, reuse, repair, recycle. Only buy what you really need, choose durable products, and repair things instead of throwing them away immediately. When was the last time you picked up a needle and thread to give an item of clothing a new lease of life?
Tip 4: Wellness in nature
Did you know that nature is the best source of wellness? A walk in the forest or a refreshing dip in a natural body of water works wonders – all without the need for artificial enhancements.
With these ideas in mind, let’s work together to make the world a bit greener!
