You can choose environmentally friendly products at ICA and it is easy to sort waste. Even though I am not a vegetarian, I often eat vegetarian food. I always travel by train to other cities and I never have to drive. But it is also easy to quickly get used to this lifestyle when you are abroad.

When we face complex issues such as climate change, even the most benevolent of us risk mentally stagnating in our effort to do the right thing. With that in mind, it may be worth asking the question: Is the struggle for the future of the earth evolving into a battle fought within the mental arena?
