We are launching the \u201cRecharge your batteries\u201d campaign<\/strong><\/h1>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”227400″]By taking care of the environment, are we also taking care of ourselves? Our social campaign \u201cRecharge your batteries\u201d aims to show that well-being and ecology are inextricably linked. World Well-being Day and Battery Recycling Day, celebrated on 8 and 9 September respectively,<\/strong> are a great opportunity to draw attention to how taking care of the environment and mental health can support each other.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_custom_heading text_size=”h4″ uncode_shortcode_id=”194700″]<\/p>\n

Conclusions from the report “Between Plus and Minus”<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”left” position_vertical=”middle” gutter_size=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/1″ uncode_shortcode_id=”519152″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”487929″]Our report,<\/a> published in February 2024, reveals that young adults aged 18-35 are less likely to separate waste and more likely to doubt the point of recycling. As many as 31% of 18-24 year olds believe that batteries cannot be recycled. Furthermore, the younger generation is less knowledgeable about how to properly dispose of used batteries than older generations. <\/p>\n

We wanted our activities to arouse the interest of young adults, which is why we combined the topic of batteries, understood as a source of power for various devices, with our internal batteries, i.e. with mental well-being, which is particularly important these days. In our social campaign “Charge your batteries” we want to support recipients in building ecological awareness, showing that by doing something good for the planet, we are also doing something good for ourselves <\/em> \u2013 explains Monika Grom, Vice President of Interzero[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=”h4″ uncode_shortcode_id=”194492″]<\/p>\n

How living in harmony with nature can improve mental health? About ecopsychology <\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”801318″]Ecopsychology, a trend that combines issues from ecology and psychology, shows that contact with nature significantly improves our well-being, reduces stress levels and increases happiness. Pro-ecological actions and mental well-being are interconnected vessels \u2013 the awareness that we contribute to environmental protection gives us a sense of agency, control and meaning, which translates into better well-being. <\/p>\n

In the last few years, there has been a clear increase in interest in the topic of building health in a holistic approach. We understand that everything inside and outside of us is interconnected and affects each other. Following this path, one of the basic pillars of health is regular contact with nature. This is one of the areas covered by ecopsychology, a science that is gaining increasing interest. Thanks to it, we increasingly appreciate the beneficial effects of nature on our mental condition, we are even more willing to use its soothing properties, and regular contact with it allows us to relax more deeply and rebuild our internal resources. <\/em> \u2013 says Orina Krajewska, President of the Management Board of the Ma\u0142gosia Braunek Be Foundation, the substantive partner of the campaign[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=”h4″ uncode_shortcode_id=”727723″]<\/p>\n

How to participate in the campaign?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”130826″]The \u201cCharge Your Batteries\u201d<\/strong> campaign aims to encourage young adults to take pro-ecological actions related to recycling batteries and to show that ecology and mental well-being are closely linked. Together with the Ma\u0142gosia Braunek Foundation, we have prepared a series of four free webinars that will help you find harmony between mental health and caring for the planet. The meetings do not require registration – just join us.<\/p>\n
