3 The Pacific Trash Vortex is an area the size of Central Europe.
4 RESOURCE SCARCITY Gallium Key element for photoelectrical Cells, LED s, Computers, etc. Indium PV-Cells, Computer, Flatscreens, Laptops, Mobiles etc. Price/kg: 2003: $60, 2006: >$
5 Loss of topsoil In the European regions it takes 100 to 300 years to build a Layer of 1 cm of Humus. 25 cm of Humus are needed to have soil which is fertile enough to be used food production. Every year we loose times more humus than we build up.
6 Minimize the ecological footprint
7 Eco-efficiency
8 Sustainable: Companies destroy less Rainforest for Palmoil Plantations Blick am Abend, Zürich
9 The greenest house is that, that never is built. Whit Faulconer, GreenBlue?
10 Is there just too many of us? No goal is more crucial to healing the global environment, than stabilizing human population. Al Gore
11 Unwelcome to the planet?
12 United Nations long-range population projections Slide 12
13 The biomass of ants is 4x GREATER than that of humans
14 Eco-Effective Good Eco-Efficient Less bad

16 Organohalogen (OHC) Wildlife Contamination OHCs non-naturally occurring compounds (flame retardants, pesticides) Highly volatile enter atmosphere and persist until condensed and concentrated in cold Arctic and Antarctic environments Enter food-chain at low trophic level and biomagnified through subsequent trophic levels High accumulation in top trophic level organisms (i.e. polar bears and whales) Accumulate in fatty tissues and are transgenerational, from mother to offspring Source: Kirkegaard, M. 2009: Effects of long-term dietary exposure to organohalogen contaminants on vitamin and hormone status in the Greenland Sledge dog (Canis familiaris).
