Eco-pioneers from Lower Austria

Saving the climate starts on your own doorstep

They don't need summits or spectacular protest campaigns to make their contribution to environmental and climate protection. Nature-loving entrepreneurs contribute directly in their own country to preserving creation for future generations.  

Think globally, act locally - more and more blue and yellow eco-pioneers are taking this principle to heart to make the world a better place.

There is the "Alaskan fisherman" Oliver Bures, for example, who keeps local fish fresh from the source in the depths of the Pielach Valley near Schwarzenbach, offering consumers a crystal-clear alternative to industrial mass fishing and the exploitation of the oceans.

But the winegrowers of the Kamptal are also making a touching contribution to saving the world - in light of the UN climate summit in Azerbaijan, which begins on Monday. From now on, the vineyards will be cultivated 100 percent sustainably.
