I´m Daria, one of the project leaders from Czech Republic. I want to share with you one of my small successes to live more environmental friendly - since the first part of our project I use only natural shampoo bars. Thanks to it I reduced use of plastic in my bathroom :) ]]> 2019-10-12 13:23:42 UTC https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/396983472 youthinaction https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/396983473 "Be a change" is a project financed by Erasmus+ program. Our aim was mostly to spread awareness about plastic pollution among young people and then to get it further - into our families, communities, society. 

Here you can find our stories of successes in making our lives more ecological and other reflection on this topic.
We hope you will get inspired!]]> 2019-10-12 13:23:42 UTC https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/396983473 marklouf https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/397122952 Greece
We now use metal flasks instead of plastic bottles and we also use metal straws]]> 2019-10-13 15:22:04 UTC https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/397122952 severinas_kvedaras https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/397123766 Us, Lithuanians, like to use alternative bags. For example, the fabric bags that Jitka gave us in Nachod, we use them to this day!! Also, we like to use bigger fabric bags to carry everyday items like food, books.]]> 2019-10-13 15:28:31 UTC https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/397123766 rolandurban6 https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/397125865 Even though it's not a habit to use straws in Slovakia, if we used them, they wouldn't be made out of plastic but metal. Also we walked instead of taking a bus or train if we had the opportunity to choose. Erasmus taught us to make a difference even in a small stuff.]]> 2019-10-13 15:43:15 UTC https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/397125865 marketaulmanova77 https://padlet.com/youthinaction/r57ie0vmqwqh/wish/397126877 Hi, I'm Markéta, I'm the leader of the Czech group, we were together on the project in Greece called "be a change"  and we wrote an article, which we want to share.
As we said we are from Czech republic, where we have nearly the best recycling system in the Europe. For example we buy fruit in plastic packaging, we eat it, and the trash put in separate bin. We got one for plastic, one for paper, bins for metal, bins for glass, bins for clothes and more.
We were surprised, when we saw how the recycling system works in Greece. They got one recycling bin for almost everything, for example plastic, paper etc.
This taught us that people don't always have the same possibilities and that they might have different view and opinions, but it doesn't mean we can not help. We can. 
So let's do it!
