#11 - Heatwaves

Hi Greensters

🌾 Europe is once again running dry. Over 40% of the continent is in drought at the beginning of summer, echoing the conditions of 2022, its driest year on record.

🔥 Meanwhile, The cost of climate denial just got real. A groundbreaking new study has traced the economic damages of extreme heat - $28 trillion worth - back to specific fossil fuel companies.

🍫 But don’t worry - we’re balancing the heat with something sweet: a creamy chocolate hazelnut chickpea spread that’s as good for the planet as it is for your toast.

Enjoy

🥗 The Green Meal

Chickpeas are a protein-rich crop with one of the lowest carbon footprints - just 0.9 kg CO₂e per kg. They also boost soil health by fixing nitrogen, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers.

And unlike most store-bought spreads, this one skips the palm oil and refined sugar - better for the planet and your body.

♻️ Eco Tip

Awareness: 💦 As heatwaves and droughts intensify across Europe, water is becoming an increasingly precious resource - even in places that once took it for granted.

Action: 🚿 Cut your shower time by just 2 minutes. It can save up to 30 liters per shower. Multiply that by days, households, and heatwaves - and it adds up to real relief for strained water systems.
