“Protecting the environment begins at home”

People face environmental challenges everywhere in the world, but often there are surprisingly simple solutions at hand - if only we are aware of them and willing to change. Five activists from all over the world, who took part in the UEM workshop „Peace with the Earth“ in Medan/ Indonesia in 2012, talk about the environmental problems that concern them most and how they themselves became active to solve them. Hear their testimonies about garbage in Indonesia, logging in Tanzania, mining in the Philippines, open brown coal pits in Germany and erosion in Rwanda.
