Fasting 2.0
5 sustainable ideas for the body and the environment
Away from antiquated ideas and towards progressive ideas – because fasting is anything but stuffy or conservative!
With the end of the carnival, Lent begins, a tradition that is often associated with renunciation – but here with us it is not at all! In the video we present you five innovative approaches on how you can use Lent not only as a sacrifice, but also as an opportunity for sustainable change for yourself and the environment – and these ideas are anything but outdated or conservative!
“Carne vale” means “meat, farewell” – this is Latin and the origin of the word carnival. Traditionally, this marks the beginning of Lent and reminds us to focus on what is important and to overcome our earthly “vices”. But while some may see the custom as antiquated and perhaps even backwards, here we prove the opposite!
Anything but mere abstinence – this is fasting 2.0
While conventional Lent is certainly based on the values of Christian tradition, these modern approaches have the potential to appeal to people of all faiths and lifestyles. Using modern and progressive ideas, we present in the video five ways to use Lent not only as a time of asceticism, but also as a time of conscious decisions for the body and the environment. Because “Fasting 2.0” means progress and change for a sustainable future.
