Is entrepreneurship the solution to combat the sustainability crisis we put ourselves in? We believe so! this week we travel around the world to Tokyo where Helena Andre, the co-founder of Just Smile, talks to us about the reason she started this now growing enterprise, her challenges both personally and for the business and where it is heading to next. 

Our first Moving World Update of the season! We look at two world issues that move the world and how they impact local communities. Join us as we talk about the UN Report on Endangered Species and How your waste can produce clean(er) energy than it did before. 

On the 11th of May Students for Climate will be organising the second edition of the climate march that was a great success last time. However, there seems to be lower enthusiasm around the event than there was last time. We talk to Justine and Amandine from Students for Climate to debunk the reason behind the slump and how different people can feel involved in the movement. Especially with the rise of more violent activist groups such as Extinction Rebellion taking over the media. 

We come to you from the city of lights to discuss the FIA Formula E Grand Prix. This monocoque single seater electric street race is now in its 5th season. We popped down to Paris to have a taste of this action packed event around the Invalides. We talk about what Formula E is but also the goals that it represents for sustainability and a fossil free future.  

Same us, new season. We debate this second season with Marion Meyers from Student for Climate. What can you look forward to in this season? We have a lot say and interesting people to meet!

Join us on our second World Moving Update as we look at recent news that has to do with global issues and how they relate to local problems. Special way to send off our first season. We will be back on the 19th of April with our second season. 

In light of the first climate march in Maastricht we talk to Pauline and Agathe who are part of the organising team for this incredible event! What actual impact do these marches have? What does it take to organise such an event? What solutions for a better climate are proposed?

In this second part of the discussion on the role of FoodBanks with Borut Vovsek, we focus our attention on the role FoodBanks play in reducing foodWaste.
