Talking but most importantly DOING Sustainability in Maastricht and MECC Maastricht, check this video on how we approach our goals to create a greener world!

In sports we know ‘teamwork makes the dream work’. With the sustainability challenges ahead of us, the smartest way to move forward is to share best practices across Europe. The 'Roadmap Sustainable Sport' aims to create a sustainable sports sector in the Netherlands. The Dutch Roadmap is a well-functioning ecosystem. An ecosystem where partners jointly achieve sustainability targets, innovate, improve processes, assign labels to procure circular, topped with a sauce of inspiration and knowledge sharing. The Dutch delegation proudly shares the sports ecosystem with her European counterparts at #EPAS at the Council of Europe . To share, to inspire and eventually for all of us to win in the sports sector.  . . .

As a person who actively joined the initial development idea meetings (arranged by TGE), I can say that overall plan is quite good. I was worrying it would be worse. It is good that some areas will be completely closed and nature will be let alone. And there will be BOA enforcement for certain topics. It is also encouraging to read that there is quite much emphasis on native plants. Having said that, I have to bring the following criticism: ''Preventing degradation due to lack of light'' --- You can read this statement many Times in municipalities document. There is no such things as ‘’lack of light’’ in a forest. A healthy forest has a closed canopy. It is very normal that a limited percentage of the sun light reach the floor Surface. This is how nature works. There is never a full flora of different plants under the forest canopy. Tree saplings patiently wait their turn until a mature tree naturally falls down and there is sun light in a small area for a short time. Then the race begins, and tree saplings tries to fill the gap. Other than that, there are only shade tolerant plant species under a forest canopy.

I'm looking forward to present at the Triodos Impact Festival tomorrow. We will be explaining the principles behind True Pricing, and show you how the calculations of True Price work by playing a True Price Lego Game! Maybe see you there?! What is True Price? True Price is the market price plus the social and environmental costs of a product. The objective of true pricing is to make products more sustainable (not more expensive). It's an effective instrument by calculating and structurally decreasing the social and environmental damage (now often hidden costs, or 'externalities') in the value chain. Where True Price does this for specific products in the value chain, sister-company Impact Institute measures the (positive and negative) impacts for entire value chains, sectors and all stakeholders of companies. Get in touch if you'd like to know more and want to find out where and how you can decrease your negative impact and increase your positive impact!

The #KPN festival was not just a celebration, but a showcase of the organization’s values and culture. Joining a large #organization like KPN can be challenging, especially for someone new to the country (like me). However, my experience over the past three months has been incredibly positive. Here are some typical challenges and how KPN has addressed them: Common Challenges in Large Organizations: 1. Connecting with numerous #colleagues 2. Feeling like a small part of a vast team 3. Navigating complex administrative processes KPN's Supportive Approach: 1. The KPN festival was a fantastic opportunity to meet thousands of colleagues and get to know each other better through engaging activities. 2. Hosting social gatherings and parties. 3. Inviting me to external #events to #network with partners. 4. Organizing casual meet-ups like drinks and dinners. KPN has truly made my #integration smooth and enjoyable, and I look forward to contributing even more to the team. KPN

How to reshape our gas stations to fit the mobility and energy transition   As a result of the transition towards an era of new modes of (energy for) mobility, there is less and less need for traditional gas stations. Amsterdam has around 60 traditional gas stations. Just imagine how many there are in all European cities!   My colleague Marek Kruszel worked over the past 4 years, together with public organizations and organizations in the energy & mobility sector to develop a vision for ‘The Gas Station of the Future’. He truly did an amazing job to translate this vision into a formal contract between the City of Amsterdam and TotalEnergies and Pon. The gas station at the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam will be the first in our beautiful city to become future proof. His lessons learned, and those that are yet to be learned, can be of great value & inspiration for other cities across Europe to start reshaping their gas stations. #Duurzamemobiliteit #Innovati #Polis #Eurocities #Smartcities #Amsterdam #PON #TotalEnergies #SustainableEnergy #Innovatie #EnergieTransitie

SDG’s in de kern van Howest, en vanzelfsprekend in onze opleiding Built Environment.

In football, rankings matter. In social change, they don't. You don't compete, you win together. 🏅 That being said, we're very happy with the recognition by the jury of the Trouw Top 100 citizen sustainability initiatives ranking, making us number 5 on their list. 💚 Check out their entire ranking (https://lnkd.in/emEGFEBG), lots of wonderful people working together to try to protect what we have and build a more sustainable and just society. And now, work continues. The recent World Cup 2030 announcement by FIFA shows that football leadership still believes they can get away with organising football flights festivals and ignoring the climate emergency. What can you do? (https://lnkd.in/ezZPkZBJ) ⚽ If your favourite club is sponsored by a polluting company, get active! Tape the sponsor name on your shirt (like in Ted Lasso), petition the club. You can also sign our petition asking the KNVB to speak out against ING's fossil fuel financing (https://lnkd.in/eD46aYD7) ⚽ If you have time and want to put your activist (design, writing, IT, organising, networking, creative, logistical) skills to use, reach out and join us! ⚽ If you want to help and have more money than time, you can contribute to our work as well. Activism is not expensive, but also not free. https://lnkd.in/etZFrS5C

Sustainability, Healthy environments, ESG strategy and all other new abbreviations like CSRD | SFDR | TCFD will become more and more mundane tasks. But how do we do it wisely? Like to discuss this at the EXPO REAL? Let’s meet.
