Students are slowly but steadily influencing the older generations to get in line and have the wellbeing of the population of the world in mind. Even though it&#8217;s not entirely anchored in our mindsets at this time. Since we deal a lot with images thematizing a sustainable lifestyle, we rather often discuss the topic of climate change on our blog. It&#8217;s time for another look over the shoulder &#8211; a look at how sustainable the Germans are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Green Germany<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We want to lay out some facts about this issue: this year, the independent and private market research institute Forsa published st on the status quo of sustainability in German households*.

Essential sustainable factors when it comes to nutrition, are food waste and nutrition free from animal-suffering. 89 percent of all participants try not to waste or throw away food. Then the tendency sinks from old to young. Regarding meatless nutrition, the age groups mix up a little.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/imageView\/REAF00427\/free-range-chicken-hand-holding-hens-egg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/REAF00427-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Free-range chicken, hand holding hen's egg - REAF00427\" class=\"wp-image-13519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/REAF00427-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/REAF00427-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/REAF00427-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/REAF00427-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/REAF00427.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>While 36 percent of all 18 to 29-year olds eat less meat, the age group above 60 lands at 31 percent. The age groups in between consume quite more meat. We can find a similar range for a low-meat or complete meat-free eating plan (13% for 18 to 29-year olds, 12% for over 60). It is safe to say that more than a quarter of all Germans are flexitarians or vegetarians. This should already have a good impact on the negative consequences of industrial farming: we find that quite positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/imageView\/NDF00646\/mans-hand-planting-tomato-plant-in-a-bed NDF00646\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/NDF00646-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Man's hand planting tomato plant in a bed - NDF00646\" class=\"wp-image-13524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/NDF00646-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/NDF00646-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/NDF00646-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/NDF00646-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/NDF00646.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3>To live aware often is about electricity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The German, in general, is a smart saver. We all channel our inner Scrooge McDuck at some point, and that mostly starts with the consumption rate of water and electricity. Consciously or unconsciously, this is where we all become climate activists. Especially in the older generation, there is a more strict regulation of household goods. Again the numbers sink as we head into the younger generations, which is probably caused by the usage of tech and social media. Scientists estimate the emissions through internet-related power consumption to be on the same level as the worldwide air traffic. Over half of the consumption is caused by streaming with a worldwide usage on the zettabyte level (1 zettabyte equals 1 billion terabytes). Are we netflixing our planet to distinction?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/imageView\/MFF002218\/young-woman-charging-electric-car\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MFF002218-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Young woman charging electric car - MFF002218\" class=\"wp-image-13517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MFF002218-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MFF002218-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MFF002218-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MFF002218-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MFF002218.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3>Our spending mood is eco<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The acceptance of Germans to spend more money on sustainable products is a lot stronger in younger generations than older. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two-fifths of Germans (38%) can see themselves to spend up to 25% more on eco-friendly cosmetics and related products. Around 44% would be ready to spend more on eco-friendly and sustainable clothing.

The list goes on. As the Canadian media and consulting company Corporate Knights published their 15th annual report on the &#8222;Global Top 100 &#8222;this year, we had the chance to look at the world&#8217;s best companies in terms of sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/imageView\/JOSF02268\/mature-businessman-with-laptop-standing-in-green-office\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/JOSF02268-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Mature businessman with laptop standing in green office - JOSF02268\" class=\"wp-image-13522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/JOSF02268-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/JOSF02268-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/JOSF02268-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/JOSF02268-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.westend61.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/JOSF02268.jpg 1796w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Disenchantment passing through &#8211; only four of the listed 100 companies come from Germany: Siemens ranks as 28th and is followed by Commerzbank (67), Osram (77), and BMW (99).
