What is a sustainable lifestyle? What will a sustainable future mean for the way we live, travel, and consume? How do we know if our lifestyles are sustainable or not? How can we fulfill our life aspirations and hopes for improving our general well-being in a sustainable way (all across the planet)? And then, the final question: How will our life be in 2050, if we try to answer the former questions nowadays?
These are some of the underlying questions driving the SPREAD Sustainable Lifestyles 2050 European social platform project. SPREAD project is run by Nora Brüggemann, who is currently involved in the European Commission co-Funded projects ‘Civil Society Platform on SCP’ and ‘Action Town – Research and Action for SCP’. Her expertise lies in the field of environmental science, EU politics and communications.
In the following interview, done by I’M Magazine,Brüggemann describes different aspects of how a day in her life would be in 2050. Her imaginings are based on the research she is undertaking. You can check I’M Magazine to watch the rest of Nora Brüggemann’s interview.
