Financing of environmental protection through income from cannabis legalization
Introduction
In recent years there has been a lot of discussions in politic and media about the legalization of cannabis. In some countries cannabis is already legal. For example in the Netherlands, Jamaica and some parts of the United States. The plant is widely accepted as being indigenous to and originating from Central Asia. More...

Hello everyone!
Deniz and I decided to do our project about the topic "knowledge sharing". The aim is to exchange the knowledge among people. This would be a great option at school. Students would study together and could share their knowledge. On one hand students can benefit from each other. On the other hand they would learn how to work in a team, which is very important for the working life. Students would write the exams in teams to get the best out of it.
All of us have some strengths and weaknesses, which is totally normal. That's why knowledge sharing is a great option to complement each others skills. Not only for school, it is also beneficial at work, among friends or with the family.
We could imagine, that a lot of paper can be saved through this type of study, which would be much better for our environment.
Now we will start our research to deepen the topic. We're excited to drop some facts about knowledge sharing.
Best regards,
Deniz and Maria

Hello Everyone
Deia and me wanted to introduce you our idea of game sharing. There are a lot of gamers in this world and a lot of energy have to be used to build the game stations, controllers or to handle the servers. Not to forget, a lot of electricity has to be used to game. So, if all the gamers decide to start sharing their game supplements and just play at other times, a lot of energy could be saved and the companies don‘t need to build so much stations.
We hope our idea has woken up your interest.
Regards,
Rezon and Deia
Our planet has not enough ressources to use them forever. We need to share now ! Everyone of us should think for himself, how to share things in his privacy to protect our environment and the planet. We made some discussions and deep thoughts and we came up with the idea to share buildings.
The humanity has built a lot of building in the century. Is it really necessary to build so much more of them or can’t we just share those who are already built? An important reason is the space. We could use it better for plant trees for example.
Of course is our population growing, but we need to think about our nature, because if we act like now in the future, it will disappear. We can't raise up our children like our parents did with us. Stop wasting to much resources, SHARE!

Goal: The Goal is to share the clothes with each other to reduce the embodied energy and the resources needed to produce new clothes.
Reason: Nowadays people buy or order too many clothes. This is bad for our environment as we use many resources and emit a lot of Co2 during transportation. With our idea we want to reduce this sort of consumption.
Saved resources: Let us imagine a cotton shirt that weighs around 200g. To get the cotton for this one shirt, about half a kilo of raw cotton is needed. To grow this amount of cotton, an average of about 7m² of land is needed. Seven square meters of land are therefore needed to produce the raw material for a normal cotton shirt alone. To get to the finished product, however, several steps are still missing, such as sewing the fabrics and transport from the country of production to the shops. All these steps consume different amounts of energy and so, in total, almost 11 kilograms of CO2 are emitted in the life of a cotton shirt. With our idea you could save all the energy and resources!
Our idea: Our idea is to use an application developed by us to give the clothes of the population to other people for free or for little money. You are probably wondering how this works? You register in the app and then you can chat with others about costs and how or where the clothes are handed out.
The whole project has many advantages. Some of them can sell their old clothes for free or even for a small profit and poorer people can also get wearable clothes. But the most important thing is that our environment is protected.
Now it's your turn. The development of the app is currently in the final phase. You can help us by promoting the app for example via social media etc. Let's save our environment for a better future for all of us.

We had the idea about sharing books. We came up with this idea because we know a lot of people buy books and never read or use them again and we know that libraries already exist but we want to motivate people to use this kind of ressource that is already offered more.
Our thought was inventing an app where they can lent the book as an e-book with their member Card and that gives you access to the libraries. To receive the member Card you pay a monthly amount of money.
For those who want the e-book as a "book in paper" they can delivered home but they have to pay the charges for the transport.
With this system we might motivate People to share and read more books, because we know many people are to lazy to go to the library.
