Ookean ei ole Sinu Prügikast! Lõpuaruanne

Image
Tänu Nopi Üles rahastusele oli Replal võimalik 10. detsembril 2018 korraldada kinos Sõprus üritus, mille raames näitasime filmi “Plastic Ocean” ning pidasime maha arutluse koos merebioloog Lennart Lennuki, lektor Egge Haiba ja Teeme Ära eestvedaja Anneli Ohvriliga. Ürituse korraldamine oli meie jaoks kindlasti uus kogemus. Esmalt pidime tiimiga välja mõtlema, mis on meie eesmärk - pidime teadma, millist sõnumit me tahame edasi anda ning milline on meie visioon selle ürituse toimumisest. Korraldasime Skype’i kõnesid ning kohtumisi, arutlesime ning tegime ühiseid otsuseid, kuni olime välja mõelnud selge plaani. Siis oli aeg tegutsemiseks. Valisime välja sobiva filmi. Hakkasime hoogsalt tegelema toimumispaiga, kõnelejate, toitlustuse ja kingituste otsimisega. Kontakteerusime kinoga, leppisime kokku ürituse toimumisaja, tingimused ja tegelesime finantsilise poolega. Valisime välja ning kirjutasime paneeldiskussiooni rääkijatele ning leppisime ka nendega kokku tingimused. Ots...

Nopi Üles vahearuanne 30.07.18

Image
Millega on RePla seni tegelenud? Esimese kahe kuu rahastuse perioodi jooksul oleme võtnud endale rohkem mõtteaega, et saada kindlam visoon silme ette, mida teha soovime. Oleme jõudnud järeldusele, et soovime korraldada taaskasutusele suunatud üritust. Sinna kutsuksime kohale inspireerivad kõnelejad, kes saavad võimaluse rääkida, kuidas on nende tegevusvaldkond seotud taaskasutusega. Üritusest kutsuksime osa võtma neid, kes on meid sel teekonnal aidanud; kes tegelevad juba mingisuguse taaskasutusvaldkonaga. Kuidas me sellisele järeldusele jõudsime? Esmalt tegime Skype'i kõne, kus läbi diskussiooni tuli välja, et soovime teha taaskasutusele suunatud üritust. Et meil koosolekud oleksid produktiivsemad ja tulemuslikumad, saime Tallinnas füüsiliselt kokku. (Pildil vasakult: Nilgün Bahsi, Kerttu Filippov, autor: Sascya Assak) Koosolekul rääkisime ürituse kontseptsiooni täpsemalt läbi; otsisime potentsiaalseid üritusel kõnelejaid ja sponsoreid, kes aitaksid meil plaani ell...

Intervjuu fitnessblogija Merilin Taimrega

Image
Hiljuti postitas fitnessblogija Merilin Taimre oma blogisse "Paljas Porgand" postituse, milles käsitles põhjalikumalt keskkonna teemat. Postitust saad lugeda SIIT . Otsustasimegi talle kirjutada, et uurida täpsemalt, millised on tema vaated keskkonnast. Kui kaua oled prügi sorteerimisega tegelenud ja miks pead seda oluliseks? Lapsest saati, sest elasime vanematega linnast väljas. Seal oli kuidagi loomulik, et mis mullast tulnud, see mulda tagasi. Paberit ja pappi kasutasime kaminatule sütitamiseks. Ning taarat tagastasime ka. Sellega tore lugu, et elades kunagi Lasnamäe korteris, sain oma vanema õe ja vennaga alati taarat ise ära viia. Tagastusraha eest võisime endale maiustusi osta. Oh krooni aeg, mil pudeliraha eest võis lausa kolm jäätist osta! Pean seda oluliseks, kuna prügi kuhjumine siin Maal on vältimatu. Meie võimuses on seda aga minimaliseerida ja igaüks võiks anda loodusele tagasi, panustades prügi sorteerimisse ja taaskasutusse. Kas otsu...

We did it! First workshop! / Ära tegime! Esimene esitlus!

Image
Today, we had a workshop at Tallinn's Arte Gymnasium, where kids from the 3rd grade participated. We thought, that we wouldn't fill in the time, it wouldn't be interesting for the kids, we would mess up etc. To our surprise, it went extremely well. Kids were always asking questions (pretty clever ones!), they were listening and in the end they said they really liked it!  The only problem seemed to be lack of room. Now we know, that for the next workshops we will ask about it beforehand.  Also, we planned on playing a game in the tablet, but we cancelled this, because we had an opportunity to play the game more interactively. Turned out, that kids really wanted to use tablets, so for the next time we will not be crossing these out.  Täna oli meil esimene esitlus Tallinna Arte Gümnaasiumis, kust võtsid osa kolmanda klassi õpilased. Alguses arvasime, et aega ei saa täis, see on liiga igav, meil läheb midagi valesti jne. Meie üllatuseks läks meil tõeli...

Ragn-Sells Visit/ Ragn-Sellsi külastamine

Image
Today, the five of us went to Ragn-Sells to learn more about recycling. Ragn-Sells is the biggest recycling center in Estonia. They recycle more than 95 types of materials. Most of the things recycled turns into energy and they also turn them into new materials to use for new objects. We saw the paper recyling station and the household waste station. We learned many facts, and we think these are really important to know: When you are recycling, you might be doing some things wrong. For example,  when you leave product in the packaging, it can't be recycled. What you can do is to simply wash the packaging.  Something so simple makes a huge difference.  Did you know, the zinc in emty batteries are used in cosmetics and solar creams?  Car tire dust is used in eyebrow products. Waste management companies don't look into the huge black bags, because they can't see what's in them. It can be dangerous for them because of the liquids, needles etc.  Household wa...

Are you recycling the right way?/ Kas sa taaskasutad õigesti?

Image
We all know, that recycling is good for the environment. The less we produce and waste, the more we can spend time on this planet, right? Since recycling is a necessity we got to make sure to do it the right way. Check out the tips below and find out, if you've been recycling the right way! Never put your recyclables in a plastic bag Don't undo all of your hard work by putting recyclables into a plastic bag. Plastic bags are not recyclable and may be dangerous, since workers sort the waste by hands. So even if inside the bag are recyclables, the bag is still removed.  You couldn't recycle a pizza box even if you wanted to Although pizza boxes might often display recycling symbols, they still might not be accepted in the recycling centre. The reason comes down to the grease. Since the cardboard can absorb liquids really easily, the grease quickly makes the pizza box unrecyclable. Most of our milk cartons and juice boxes aren't recyclable Although these c...

RePla visited the Environmental Board! Common questions about recycling.

Image
On Thursday, the 23rd of November RePla visited the Environmental Board of Estonia in Jõhvi. For this day I had set myself a goal – to expand my horizon about recycling as much as possible. I had prepared 7 questions, and was really exited to interview. Integrated permit specialist Riina Vaht was fortunately ready to welcome us in the early morning. Regardless the fact that Riina’s mother tonque is Estonian, she was still ready to answer the questions in English. In 8 educative minutes, we got answers to many various questions. For example, why is recycling important, how could not recycling affect our health, how to make students more intrested in recycling and even how some parts of recycling could not be beneficial to the environment. In conclusion, RePla confirmed again that our goal is important and necessary to the environment. Listen to the interview here and find out what else Riina has to say about recycling.  Thank you for reading! RePla Neljapäeval, 23. Novembril...
