Walk Cologne with the Zero Waste Schweif

A playful city stroll: you choose the time Grab the Schweif booklet and one to four friends, then wander your Kiez with small tasks that help you spot waste, reuse, and resources in everyday streets. No tour guide: you set the pace. How it works - Pick up a booklet at partner cafés, unverpackt shops, or Zero Waste Köln info stands (hours vary by location). - Work through quizzes and observation prompts designed in Cologne, usable in any urban neighbourhood. - Optional deep-dive facts on the project page after you have tried the riddles yourself. Why it matters Cologne burns roughly 2,000 tonnes of waste every day; the Schweif turns that abstract number into curiosity about what we throw away and what could stay in the loop.

Launch a neighbourhood skills audit

Map who can teach what on your block Energy cooperatives and ecofeminist networks both start by asking: which skills already live here? REScoop.eu trains starters to inventory local expertise before building projects. WECF partners use similar audits to match mentors with women entering climate work. What you can do - Download starter guidance from REScoop.eu services and list skills your street could share - Facilitate a one-evening audit: repairs, childcare, translation, solar wiring, gardening - Pair two neighbours for a skill swap and log what equipment a future hub would need How it works Volunteers collect offers and requests on a wall or shared spreadsheet. Coordinators connect matches and note gaps for workshops or tool libraries. The audit repeats each season as people join or learn. Why it matters Mutual aid scales when skills are visible. Audits surface elders, migrants, and carers whose know-how rarely appears on job sites. Source & repost Shared here so you can get inspired or find action already happening near you.

PRE-KOM door-to-door collection: national leader in northern Croatia

14 municipalities, 71 % separate collection PRE-KOM in Prelog operates door-to-door waste collection across 14 municipalities in northern Croatia: Prelog, Goričan, Donji Kraljevec, Sveta Marija, Donji Vidovec, Donja Dubrava, Kotoriba, Belica, Dekanovec, Domašinec, Podturen, Martijanec, Jalžabet, and Pribislavec. The network consistently ranks as Croatia's top performer in separate waste collection, averaging over 71 % and producing fewer than 73 kg of residual waste per resident: well below the national average of 247 kg. What residents do - Sort household waste into the collected fractions at source - Follow the door-to-door schedule provided by PRE-KOM for each street Why it matters In a country where national policy still favours waste-to-energy, these 14 municipalities prove that source separation at the household level works at scale: and that small municipalities can lead a large country.

Share solar from a firehouse energy community

Split a roof's kilowatts with neighbours instead of going alone In Špičkovina near Zabok, Croatia's first fully operational energy community put 32 kW of panels on the voluntary fire brigade hall. Seventeen residents and one small business share the generation on their bills, coordinated with REGEA and the European SHAREs project. What you can do - Read the Klima 101 report and ask your firehouse, school, or co-op roof whether a shared array fits - Contact regional energy agencies (REGEA in north-west Croatia) for legal and metering steps - Watch for similar communities forming in Karlovac and Samobor as the model spreads How it works Members invest together; allocated solar energy appears as a credit on each household bill. The fire association channels savings into equipment while every member cuts costs, without needing a private roof. Why it matters Citizen energy stops waiting for perfect bureaucracy when neighbours already trust a shared public roof.

Learn from zero waste municipalities across Mexico

Jalisco to Baja California: replicable pilots Mexico’s zero-waste momentum spans states and municipalities, including Jalisco, Apaxco, and Baja California programmes cited in the 2025 regional report. GAIA members help local governments design reuse, source segregation, and organics systems instead of defaulting to conventional waste contracts. What you can do - Ask your municipal environmental office whether a zero-waste diagnostic or segregated organics pilot exists locally. - Connect neighbourhood groups with GAIA Mexico partners for training on compost and recycler inclusion. Why it matters Curiosity and political determination, not expensive end-of-pipe contracts, are what the report celebrates as the region’s leading edge.

Commission Fairmined jewellery with local goldsmiths

Ask your jeweller for metal with a fair mine story Fairever in Leipzig supplies Fairmined and Fairtrade gold and silver to goldsmiths and makers across Europe. Premiums flow back to artisanal mining communities for schools, safer chemicals, and restoration. Other seals (Green Gold, Auropelli, LBMA Responsible Sourcing) exist — ask what each certificate actually covers, then choose craft over anonymous bars. What you can do - Commission a ring, repair, or remake and ask your local goldsmith to order Fairmined or Fairtrade half-products via Fairever - Browse the Fairmined supplier page for Fairever for alloys and casting grain - Read Fairtrade Deutschland’s gold background before you shop How it works Makers order certified grain, wire, or sheet. Independent audits check labour, mercury-free methods, and premium payments. Your piece carries a traceable chain instead of anonymous scrap-mix metal. Why it matters Jewellery can celebrate love without funding conflict or poisoned rivers — when neighbours and makers pull the same fair supply.

Build a Fab City local node and open learning day

Prototype solutions your city can actually produce Fab City invites territories to commit to making more of what they consume. The How to Become a Fab City guide walks groups through stakeholder maps, pilot projects, and open learning days that welcome first-time makers. What you can do - Read the Fab City Hubs Toolkit with a small founding team - Host a monthly open lab afternoon: one taught skill, one shared tool, one neighbourhood challenge - Submit your hub story to the Fab City Learning Hub resource library How it works A local node partners with schools, libraries, or cooperatives for space and outreach. Pilots test circular products (repair, textiles, food processing) before scaling. The global network reviews and spreads what works. Why it matters Cities that learn to make together depend less on fragile supply chains. Open learning days lower the threshold for anyone curious about fabrication.

Zagreb Pay-As-You-Throw: fairer billing, less landfill

Citizens control their own waste bill Zagreb introduced a Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT) system following recommendations from Zelena Akcija under the EU-funded ERIC (Elevating Reuse In Cities) project. By late 2024 the city had cut landfilling by 20 % and boosted separate collection by 50 % compared to 2022: with full rollout expected by end of 2026. What changed - Open street bins in the city centre replaced with underground containers for separated and mixed waste - Elsewhere, bins relocated into buildings and courtyards; caged and semi-underground containers added - Households charged based on the volume of mixed waste they generate, not a flat fee How to participate - Sort household waste into the correct streams: you directly reduce your bill - Follow Zagreb's city environmental office for updates on PAYT rollout in your district - Support the advocacy to extend door-to-door collection to more neighbourhoods Why it matters PAYT aligns the incentive system: the less mixed waste you produce, the less you pay. Combined with infrastructure improvements, Zagreb is turning around one of Central Europe's larger urban waste footprints.

PAYT pilots in Portugal: municipalities taking control of waste costs

Pay-As-You-Throw arrives in Portuguese cities In 2024 the Portuguese national government opened new Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT) funding schemes, making it financially viable for municipalities to overhaul their waste collection systems. Municipalities including Fornos de Algodres, São João da Madeira, and Silves are implementing the measures they observed during study visits to Italy and Spain: including door-to-door collection schedules, smart bin tags that identify and reject incorrectly sorted bins, and digital monitoring tools. What PAYT means for residents - Households that separate waste correctly and generate less residual waste pay lower bills - The system creates a direct, fair link between individual behaviour and cost - Monitoring data helps municipalities pinpoint collection problems before they worsen What you can do - If your municipality is piloting PAYT, attend public information sessions and ask how your household can benefit - Advocate with your local council to apply for the new national PAYT funding - Follow ZERO for the latest funding rounds and municipal case studies Why it matters With 60 % of Portugal's waste going to overflowing landfills, cost-based incentives for households are one of the fastest levers available. PAYT pilots in Silves and São João da Madeira are the first step toward national uptake. Source & repost Shared here so you can get inspired or find action already happening near you.

WASHKING bio-digester toilets for slums

Pay-per-use sanitation that becomes fertiliser WASHKING (Accra, Ghana) builds bio-digester toilets for dense neighbourhoods, reducing faecal waste by 90% and converting it into fertiliser. A pay-per-use model keeps toilets affordable while protecting dignity, safety, and hygiene. Impacc lists support for WASHKING as completed, treat this as a replicable pattern, not a live Impacc grant. What you can do - Study how pay-per-use sanitation funds maintenance without large upfront household costs - Partner with local cooperatives to adapt bio-digester designs to your settlement's layout - Connect fertiliser outputs to urban gardens or peri-urban farms How to participate - Visit WASHKING's portfolio page for programme history and contact paths Why it matters Sanitation is mutual aid infrastructure. When waste loops close into soil nutrients, communities gain health and food sovereignty together. Source & repost Shared here so you can get inspired or find action already happening near you.

Support Fairmined Credits for Corazones de Oro

Fund inclusion in Pacarní with one gram of impact Fairever offers Fairmined Credits: each credit stands for one gram of responsibly mined gold from Iquira, Colombia. The physical gold stays in the local market; the credit pays extra impact. Most of the price supports Corazones de Oro, an inclusion project for children and youth with special needs in Pacarní, with a share for the Alliance for Responsible Mining. What you can do - Buy a Fairmined Credit on the Fairever site (Corazones de Oro section) - Share the project with a makers’ group or repair café that wants a solidarity action without shipping gold - Follow Alliance for Responsible Mining for more ASM community programmes How it works Credits separate metal trade from social impact funding. Miners sell gold locally; buyers fund verified community work and ARM’s standards work. Why it matters Solidarity can travel farther than a parcel — one credit ties European makers to a named Colombian community project.
