Matters of the heart
We stand firmly behind people, companies and campaigns that advocate for the protection of our planet and create genuine awareness for sustainability in our society. So we're even happier when environmentalists choose to use sodasan products – such as these two fantastic initiatives, which are both close to our hearts:
Cast off for Mission Zero CO₂!
Did you know that global shipping emits more CO₂ every year than the entire Federal Republic of Germany? If we want to finally put an end to this, we need to start creating a headwind with sustainable alternatives. The Timbercoast initiative - cargo under sail - is doing just that: founder Cornelius Bockermann and his crew use wind power to transport goods across the ocean on the AVONTUUR cargo ship. They are thus providing a sustainable alternative to ocean-going freighters that are fuelled with heavy oil and resemble floating hazardous waste dumps. For sodasan and our founders, both forward thinkers like Bockermann, the project has long since triggered a wave of enthusiasm. Just as our mission to ‘clean up’ anchors ecological responsibility in everyday life, Timbercoast sets sail for environmental protection.
Sea Respect for natural habitats!
The Lower Saxony Wadden Sea is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and, as a biosphere reserve, the nursery of harbour seals and grey seals. Unfortunately, up to 150 pups are separated from their mothers every year, often because we humans carelessly intrude into their natural habitat. This is when the Norddeich Breeding Centre comes into play: the volunteer carers, vets and helpers look after the little ‘howlers’ until they are big enough for the great freedom of the North Sea. We support this important work with seal sponsorships. In addition to our clean core business, it is a further contribution to species conservation and the preservation of this unique natural paradise right on our doorstep.
Learn today - change tomorrow
Water is the source of all life - and we all have a responsibility to protect this valuable resource. That's why we at sodasan have been supporting the work of Ozeankind® e.V. since 2020. Ozeankind and we want the world to be a little bit better tomorrow than it is today. The organisation inspires children in Germany and Zanzibar with environmental and recycling projects and motivates them to become active themselves. In this way, the children learn through play how important it is to protect our seas and waters. We are delighted to be part of this great movement - for clean water and a future worth living for everyone.
