It is up to us - each and everyone of us.
I am reading the "Carbon Almanac, Facts. Connection. Action." With Seth Godin as the main pillar behind the collection. "The Carbon Almanac is a powerful tool to help us create change, right here and right now."
As a tour guide, or as I prefer to call my profession: a heritage interpreter, I always ask my visitors - after you have enjoyed the heritage - natural and cultural - that survived for millennia, what do you personally do to ensure that the natural and cultural heritage survive for the next millennium or two?
The answer is "It's not up to me." But it is. Here is a blog from the Daily difference:

Extreme weather is happening more frequently and with more severity around the world. Whether that is forest fires, record breaking temperatures,droughts, intense storms or flooding, you have likely experienced extreme […]

Excellent Zagreb Beer Fest! Family atmosphere, children running around, a selection of good beers and some cocktails, great music and a party - also for the older ones who want to go to bed a little earlier 🙂
A great young Bad Daughter (https://www.facebook.com/baddaughtermusic) is a musical discovery for me, followed by Pocket Palma - loved them. See the rest of program and dates on their page.

Sources: water gives life. Being in a place like this where clear, clean and fresh river water springs from the ground is a real experience. Everyone gathers at this source of the river Gacka - people and birds and animals. And some suppressed liveliness on the verge of winter still, I must admit, arouses admiration and curiosity.
We just come from Tesla's home village. Tesla found inspiration in the nature of Lika: from strong torrents of rivers and streams, sudden lightning and storms that suddenly rushed from the Velebit mountain with incredible strength and darkness, the flight and landing of a flock of ducks, to the intelligence of ravens.
He accepted the challenge of nature. She threw a glove in his face several times, and he accepted the challenge and set out to unravel her secrets and mysteries.
You wouldn't believe how close you were to these natural and cultural phenomena if you visited the Plitvice Lakes for example :) Or if you were bathing and having fun on the beaches of the Pag island. You maybe didn't know, but you missed something...

Zagreb Tunnel
350 meters long, built during 1944. You enter on both sides – East and West of the Upper Town Grič. Nothing mysterious about it.

Still, the tunnel never ceases to amaze me. When you see a light at the end of the tunnel, some subconscious images appear, that normally only pop up in dreams. Maybe that is why the tunnel is constantly astonishing. It is neither the longest, nor the narrowest or the widest, or anything else. However, when I walk past the entrance and look at the darkness inside - with a small light dot at the end, I have to enter; I keep coming in and out. It is a contrast. It is allegorical. It is an empty space in the body of the Upper Town; it is not roaming, not going anywhere. It is not a passage. It was made to be entered, to stay inside and wait for the door to reopen, for a ray of light or, at night, a breath of fresh air.
Occasionally, very briefly, it served to protect one great treasure, something most precious that exists. What do you think that is?

How do we prepare for heritage interpretation? Group activities are the best, we learn from each other how to inspire and involve, not just inform. This is from the training on island of Krk where a group of enthusiasts joined our group education to become Certified Interpretive Guides!

The island of Krk reaching self sufficiency in green energy production. The road to sustainable and greener future is long, but the islanders are going forward fast. With the support of the local economic sector and the tourist offices of Krk, and with quality examples from Europe and the world I don't doubt Krk will become a role model for sustainable tourism in the future.

The northern Adriatic island of Krk, among the biggest in Croatia, looks headed towards energy self-sufficiency by the end of the decade in what environmentalists say is an example for the Mediterranean in transition to green and sustainable power.
