❀ Maiasmokk 🐰

"Maiasmokk is located in the ground floor of the yellow building in the centre. Maiasmokk () is an old cafĂ© in the capital city of Tallinn, Estonia that is located at the address of Pikk tn 16. It is said to have finished in its modern form in 1864, making it the oldest operational cafĂ© in Estonia. The premises also contain a museum about the history and uses of marzipan. It is currently owned by the Kalev company. Location and description = CafĂ© = The official website of the Maiasmokk says that the cafĂ© "offers you fresh pastries, pies and cakes made at the cafe as well as delicious handmade candies." It also has hot coffee offered in a variety of forms. The cafĂ© has two floors. The coffee-house is located at the intersection of Pikk and PĂŒhavaimu streets, in the Old Town of Tallinn. It lies diagonally opposite the Church of the Holy Ghost, and the Great Guild (housing parts of the Estonian History Museum). The interior of the cafĂ© has remained unchanged for almost a century. The cafĂ© is open on Mondays through Fridays from 8 A.M. to 9 P.M. (all times are in Eastern European Time/Eastern European Summer Time) and on Saturdays and Sundays from 9 A.M. to 9 P.M. The second floor is open throughout the week from 11 A.M. to 9 P.M. = Museum = Apart from the cafĂ©, the premises also contain a room with an exhibition about the history and uses of marzipan. The room has around 200 marzipan figures, made from molds over 100 years old, and features marzipan painting and lectures. A marzipan artist, who does the marzipan painting, is always located in the museum. The museum is open throughout the week from 10 A.M. to 8 P.M. History Maiasmokk is said to be the oldest cafe which is still operational in Estonia. The history of the coffee-house goes back to August 11 1806, when sugar baker Lorenz Cavietzel obtained the right to the land on which the present building stands. It was the first sugar bakery was established here, but it was not until 1864 that the presently visible cafĂ© was constructed. In 1864, the property was bought and redeveloped by the Baltic German confectioner Georg Stude, and a cafĂ© has operated in the premises since then. During the late 19th century, the coffee-house became renowned for its marzipan production, and clients buying marzipan included the Russian Imperial family. At the beginning of the 20th century, prior to World War I, the cafĂ© received several valuable awards. In 1941, the company became nationalised, but the cafĂ© continued to operate during the Soviet occupation of Estonia. In 1997, after Estonia had re-gained its independence, the cafĂ© was registered as a private enterprise. A majority of the shares were bought by Kalev in 2004, and it is today (2015) a part of the Kalev company. In 2006 the Estonian Post Office created a postage stamp to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the cafe. In 2010, Kalev also bought the house in which the cafĂ© is located.

❀ Carbon literacy 🐰

"Carbon Literacy is the awareness of climate change and the climate impacts of mankind's everyday actions. The term has been used in a range of contexts in scientific literature and in casual usage (see Research), but is most associated with The Carbon Literacy Project (CLP).The Carbon Literacy Project logo Definition Carbon Literacy is the knowledge and capacity required to create a positive shift in how mankind lives, works and behaves in response to climate change. The Carbon Literacy Project defines Carbon Literacy as "an awareness of the carbon costs and impacts of everyday activities and the ability and motivation to reduce emissions, on an individual, community and organisational basis." To distinguish between the use of the phrase in its abstract sense ('carbon literacy') (e.g.), and its use under the established definition (Carbon Literacy), the phrase is capitalised (e.g.). See Research. The Carbon Literacy Project (CLP) The term Carbon Literacy had been used informally on a number of earlier occasions, but began to gain prominence in 2009 when it emerged in the development of the climate change action plan for Manchester, Manchester: A Certain Future. This citizen-written plan pledged the UK's second largest urban area to: # Reduce the city of Manchester’s emissions of carbon dioxide by 41% by 2020, from 2005 levels. # To engage all individuals, neighbourhoods and organisations in Manchester in a process of cultural change that embeds ‘low-carbon thinking’ into the lifestyles and operations of the city. The plan therefore aimed to (i) lower emissions by reducing demand for and use of energy; altering the technologies used for energy generation; and changing the sources of the fuels used from fossil fuels to renewables; and (ii) create a 'low-carbon culture' by building a common understanding of the causes and implications of climate change, and to develop programmes of 'carbon literacy'. As a collectively written and owned plan, any citizen or organisation could respond to assist in the delivery of aims and objectives, however it took until 2010 before a Manchester-based social enterprise Cooler Projects CIC took up the challenge of delivery of the Carbon Literacy objective: “...every resident, pupil, student and employee [in the city] will have had at least one day's training in climate change
probably several by 2020. In 2011, Cooler convened a voluntary 30-person working group drawn from all sectors who, working collectively, created a definition for the term, and established requirements for a day's training to meet that definition. These requirements formed the basis of The Carbon Literacy Standard. The Standard was based on the key premise that if mankind is to cut carbon emissions by the kind of reduction targets demanded by science, we will need to change our culture as well as our technology. In 2012, Cooler began to pilot its approach with schools, workplaces, and communities. It quickly established a not for profit initiative - The Carbon Literacy Project - initially in Manchester but rapidly beyond, to oversee the delivery of training to meet the Standard, and certifying successful participants as “Carbon Literate”. In the same year the Association of Greater Manchester Authorities (AGMA) (which includes Manchester), established Carbon Literacy as one of the four aims of the Greater Manchester Climate Change Strategy. In 2014, the Project was incorporated as a registered charity (a legal not-for- profit structure in the UK) The Carbon Literacy Trust (registered charity No.1156722) so that the concept of Carbon Literacy and its IP could be delivered in perpetuity, for the public good. In 2015, The Carbon Literacy Project was selected from a global field to be part of the Transformative Actions Program (TAP) at the UN Climate Change summit (COP21) in Paris, December 2015. The Carbon Literacy Project is therefore formally recognised as one of the top 100 responses the world has to offer in order to tackle climate change. In 2015, Councillor Jeff Smith became the first Carbon Literate MP. in 2016, The Carbon Literacy Project introduced an accreditation scheme called the Carbon Literate Organisation (CLO) accreditation. Carbon Literate Organisation (CLO) The Carbon Literate Organisation (CLO) accreditation and associated CLO Standard were designed and launched by The Carbon Literacy Project (2016) in order to provide a visible ‘badge’ that showcases an organisation as (i) committed to Carbon Literacy (CL), (ii) having a substantial number of people who are Carbon Literate, and (iii) having a commitment to support its Carbon Literate people and maintain its low carbon culture. An organisation uses this status to better interact with its communities–whether they are staff or customers, neighbours, learners, suppliers or stakeholders. The four tiers of accreditation (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) ensures distinction between organisations showing differing levels of commitment. Worldwide to date, fourteen organisations are registered as Carbon Literate Organisations (CLOs), including The University of Manchester, Manchester Museum and Northwards Housing. Research The use of the term ‘carbon literacy’ is increasingly widespread in everyday language and scientific literature, and includes (i) research that specifically evaluates Carbon Literacy and The Carbon Literacy Project, and (ii) the use of the term 'carbon literacy' in a more abstract sense. Behavioural responses to climate change are limited due to the uncertainty and complexity associated with the subject. Current research focuses on the need for societal engagement in the mitigation of climate change, through an increase of understanding amongst citizens, organisations, schools and public bodies due to the uncertainty and complexity associated with the subject. Dissemination of Carbon Literacy (CL) training (which includes the causes and consequences of carbon emissions, and an understanding of the power of individual action) has been shown to qualitatively influence positive behaviour change with regard to reducing carbon footprints. Following CL training, energy and carbon-saving behaviour (including both individual and collective actions) has been shown to increase, including evidence of the ‘cascade effect’–where participants discussed CL with family, friends or colleagues. In Greater Manchester CL is being disseminated to those that live (via housing associations), those that work (BBC, Media City, Peel Media, ITV, Dock10, local authorities, Groundwork, Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue) and those that study (University of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan University). Other studies conducted over the last two decades refer to the abstract concept of 'carbon literacy', and its importance in low-carbon behaviour change. For example, Horng et al. looked into the development of low carbon choices in the Taiwanese tourism industry, and Teng et al. found that 'carbon literacy' significantly improves low-carbon behaviour in the hospitality industry in Taiwan. Studies have also focussed on ‘carbon literacy practices’ in children’s construction of knowledge about climate change. Here, significantly higher levels of climate change knowledge and understanding were found in pupils from ‘eco-schools’ as opposed to ‘non-eco-schools’, indicating the importance of Carbon Literacy within community settings to facilitate culture change.
