Ljubljana, 29. junij 2007 - Jutri, 30. junija, se izteče rok za oddajo nacionalnih akcijskih načrtov za energetsko učinkovitost, ki jih morajo države članice EU pripraviti v skladu s smernico o učinkovitosti rabe končne energije in energetskih storitvah. Z nacionalnimi akcijskimi načrti morajo države članice predvideti ukrepe, s katerimi bodo med leti 2008 in 2016 kumulativno prihranile 9 % energije. Številne države, med njimi tudi Slovenija, bodo rok za oddajo zamudile, kar kaže na neresen odnos pri obravnavanju problematike neučinkovite rabe energije. Za takšen odnos je kriv tudi Bruselj.

Podatki kažejo, da mora tudi Slovenija drastično povečati in pospešiti napore za zmanjšanje izpustov, zato Focus društvo za sonaraven razvoj od vlade zahteva nujno pospešitev ukrepov za boj proti podnebnim spremembam.

Ljubljana, 4.6. – Jutri, 5. junija, je svetovni dan okolja. Focus društvo za sonaraven razvoj bo ob tej priložnosti z ozaveščevalno akcijo v Ljubljani naznanilo začetek izvajanja kampanje o rabi elektrike, ki jo naprave porabijo v stanju pripravljenosti – torej, ko jih sploh ne uporabljamo. Ocenjeno je, da tipično slovensko gospodinjstvo na leto porabi povprečno za 40 W elektrike za naprave v stanju pripravljenosti. S popolnim izklapljanjem naprav iz električnega omrežja v času, ko jih ne uporabljamo, lahko slovenska gospodinjstva prihranijo okoli 170 000 ton CO2.

Ljubljana, 14. maj 2007 – Jutri, 15. 5., obeležujemo dan podnebnih sprememb. Posledice spreminjanja podnebja so postale tako očitne, da jih opazi vsak. Kljub temu si tako svetovna kot lokalna politika zatiskata oči pred potrebnim ukrepanjem. Države sveta niso sposobne doseči dogovora za ukrepanje, med čakanjem pa se hitrost in moč podnebnih sprememb povečujeta. Zato je med mladimi, ki bodo morali preživeti v spremenjenem podnebju, vse pogosteje slišati zamisli o t.i. podnebni revoluciji.
