About .ausgestrahlt

.ausgestrahlt is an anti-nuclear organization that has been active throughout the country since 2008. The organization believes that nuclear power plants cause severe injustice to people and the environment. The possibility of accidents like those in Fukushima and Chernobyl creates a risk that cannot be ignored, and the radioactive waste generated from nuclear power plants will have an impact on future generations.

.ausgestrahlt believes that political pressure from the public is crucial to bringing about a genuine phase-out of nuclear power. As a result, the organization encourages and supports opponents of nuclear power to turn their stance into public protest. The group provides strategies, action ideas, arguments, and materials to all anti-nuclear activists, enabling them to organize collections of signatures, days of action, information events, and demonstrations. .ausgestrahlt often collaborates with local initiatives and other environmental organizations to create many opportunities for individuals to become active in the anti-nuclear movement.

A strong commitment to environmental responsibility drives the company to produce high-quality products with minimal environmental impact, achieved through responsible farming, cleaner manufacturing, and the utilization of sustainable natural fibers.

Cleaner production measures have been integrated into the Australian plant’s original design, and ongoing projects continuously target reductions in electricity, gas, and water consumption. The on-site 5-stage water treatment plant enables up to 85% of ABMT’s water to be reused for manufacturing or shared with third-party recycled water programs in agriculture, parklands, and industry.

    Access Fund is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for the climbing community in the pursuit of sustainable access and conservation of the climbing environment. Climbing, as a sport, offers climbers a range of experiences, from pure joy and limitless challenge to wild freedom and a like-minded community. However, the places where climbers find these experiences need protection, and Access Fund strives to inspire climbers to care for these special places while ensuring that every climber has the opportunity to enjoy them.

    Founded in 1991, Access Fund initially fought for legal and physical access to climbing sites. Over the years, the organization has won significant victories in this battle. However, with the sport’s explosive growth, new challenges have emerged, and land managers now question whether climbers can access these sites sustainably without causing destruction. Access Fund has a 30-year history of advocacy victories, making it uniquely placed to face the new challenges head-on, fight for sustainable access, and protect and conserve the land. By building a nationwide community of inspired advocates, Access Fund is ensuring a sustainable future for climbing.

    To meet the exponential growth in climbing, Access Fund is scaling up its efforts to keep pace. By becoming a member of the largest and fastest-growing community of advocates, individuals can contribute to the fight to protect America’s climbing.

    AIARE

    Established in 1998 as a nonprofit educational organization, AIARE (American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education) has been dedicated to developing an evidence-based avalanche education model for backcountry users. With the belief that avalanche education, research, and training can prevent injuries and fatalities, AIARE has been disseminating research-based avalanche curriculum to over 110 Providers nationwide, as well as in France, Chile, and Argentina. The organization also offers professional and avalanche instructor training courses.

    The seed for AIARE was planted during a chance meeting between mountain guides in the California Sierra in 1992. AIARE co-founder Jean Pavillard taught courses for aspiring guides and noticed that their avalanche knowledge was somewhat uneven, attributing this to varying curriculum and quality among the avalanche education providers they’d learned from. Together with Karl Klassen, another mountain guide, they agreed that it was time for a unified approach to avalanche education. At the time, there was no nationally recognized curriculum despite the increasing popularity of backcountry recreation.

    Tom Murphy, the course director for Pavillard’s guiding company, recognized the need for an organized framework for assessing risk and moving through avalanche terrain. Klassen applied his curriculum development experience from the Canadian Avalanche Association to assist Pavillard and Murphy with their avalanche courses, and from this collaboration, AIARE was born in 1998.

    From the start, AIARE integrated national and international standards and incorporated a decision-makers’ approach to risk management in avalanche education. The organization initiated an instructor training program to maintain consistency among instructors and provide them with best practices for interacting with students. AIARE consults with qualified instructors when developing new curriculum and supplementary materials to ensure their products are based on a wide variety of experience, background, and knowledge. The result is a consensus-driven process that has produced an avalanche education program and training courses that meet the needs of the trainers and course participants alike.

    Today, AIARE curriculum provides avalanche education to more backcountry travelers than any other single avalanche education organization in the United States and trains over 100 new instructors every season. AIARE continues to develop standardized curricula for a complete program of avalanche courses that meets the needs of students at all levels, from recreational to professional, from novice to advanced.

    Access Fund is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for the climbing community in the pursuit of sustainable access and conservation of the climbing environment. Climbing, as a sport, offers climbers a range of experiences, from pure joy and limitless challenge to wild freedom and a like-minded community. However, the places where climbers find these experiences need protection, and Access Fund strives to inspire climbers to care for these special places while ensuring that every climber has the opportunity to enjoy them.

    Founded in 1991, Access Fund initially fought for legal and physical access to climbing sites. Over the years, the organization has won significant victories in this battle. However, with the sport’s explosive growth, new challenges have emerged, and land managers now question whether climbers can access these sites sustainably without causing destruction. Access Fund has a 30-year history of advocacy victories, making it uniquely placed to face the new challenges head-on, fight for sustainable access, and protect and conserve the land. By building a nationwide community of inspired advocates, Access Fund is ensuring a sustainable future for climbing.

    To meet the exponential growth in climbing, Access Fund is scaling up its efforts to keep pace. By becoming a member of the largest and fastest-growing community of advocates, individuals can contribute to the fight to protect America’s climbing.

    AIARE

    Established in 1998 as a nonprofit educational organization, AIARE (American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education) has been dedicated to developing an evidence-based avalanche education model for backcountry users. With the belief that avalanche education, research, and training can prevent injuries and fatalities, AIARE has been disseminating research-based avalanche curriculum to over 110 Providers nationwide, as well as in France, Chile, and Argentina. The organization also offers professional and avalanche instructor training courses.

    The seed for AIARE was planted during a chance meeting between mountain guides in the California Sierra in 1992. AIARE co-founder Jean Pavillard taught courses for aspiring guides and noticed that their avalanche knowledge was somewhat uneven, attributing this to varying curriculum and quality among the avalanche education providers they’d learned from. Together with Karl Klassen, another mountain guide, they agreed that it was time for a unified approach to avalanche education. At the time, there was no nationally recognized curriculum despite the increasing popularity of backcountry recreation.

    Tom Murphy, the course director for Pavillard’s guiding company, recognized the need for an organized framework for assessing risk and moving through avalanche terrain. Klassen applied his curriculum development experience from the Canadian Avalanche Association to assist Pavillard and Murphy with their avalanche courses, and from this collaboration, AIARE was born in 1998.

    From the start, AIARE integrated national and international standards and incorporated a decision-makers’ approach to risk management in avalanche education. The organization initiated an instructor training program to maintain consistency among instructors and provide them with best practices for interacting with students. AIARE consults with qualified instructors when developing new curriculum and supplementary materials to ensure their products are based on a wide variety of experience, background, and knowledge. The result is a consensus-driven process that has produced an avalanche education program and training courses that meet the needs of the trainers and course participants alike.

    Today, AIARE curriculum provides avalanche education to more backcountry travelers than any other single avalanche education organization in the United States and trains over 100 new instructors every season. AIARE continues to develop standardized curricula for a complete program of avalanche courses that meets the needs of students at all levels, from recreational to professional, from novice to advanced.

    A Sud – Ecologia e Cooperazione

    A Sud – Ecologia e Cooperazione is an Italian association that was established in 2003. Its core focus is on addressing environmental conflicts and providing support to men and women who fight for the defence and resistance of their territories across Italy and the world.

A Sud also offers support and tools to these communities through independent research, planning, and education in schools, universities, territories and companies.

    The association aims to create solidarity bridges between the North and the South of the world and understand the common thread that links them all. They opened the first Environmental Conflict Documentation Center in 2007, which has now become an independent and autonomous research organization dealing with mapping the most emblematic conflicts caused by the control of natural resources and common goods.

    The center also focuses on broad themes such as climate change, energy and production models, and ecological reconversion. A Sud believes that it is essential to encourage research activities and documentation to support concrete action and territorial intervention.

    Situated 40 kilometers west of Melbourne’s CBD and Shipping Port, ABMT Australia serves as a respected global leader in natural fiber circular knit manufacturing. Housing MerinoEdge, this facility caters to a diverse range of clientele, from local fashion retailers to international sports and outdoor brands. As ABMT’s central hub for Research and Development, the Australian base manufactures Merino Wool, Organic Cotton, and Fashion Fabric programs.

    Boasting an extensive array of knitting machines, such as single jersey, double knit, and jacquard, ABMT Australia capitalizes on low liquor ratio dyeing machines and comprehensive finishing capabilities, including compaction, decatising, and brushing. This vast range enables almost infinite possibilities in circular knits. Thanks to local Australian production, the company can offer minimum order quantities as low as 500 meters per order.

    The creative, experienced, and energetic team at ABMT Australia constantly strives for innovation and challenges the status quo. A strong commitment to environmental responsibility drives the company to produce high-quality products with minimal environmental impact, achieved through responsible farming, cleaner manufacturing, and the utilization of sustainable natural fibers.

    ABMT Australia takes pride in its efforts to substantially reduce the environmental footprint typically associated with textile manufacturing. Cleaner production measures have been integrated into the Australian plant’s original design, and ongoing projects continuously target reductions in electricity, gas, and water consumption. The on-site 5-stage water treatment plant enables up to 85% of ABMT’s water to be reused for manufacturing or shared with third-party recycled water programs in agriculture, parklands, and industry.

    Established by ABMT Australia in 2005, ABMT China is a modern, privately-owned enterprise specializing in natural fiber and natural fiber blend terry, fleece, ponte, double-knit, and jersey. Located on the Ning-shao Plain near Ningbo, the factory enjoys a strategic location, offering easy access to Ningbo Airport, Shanghai via fast train, and the deepwater Beilun Harbor.

    The Chinese operation draws on the success of its Australian counterpart, enabling greater processing efficiencies, product continuity, and innovation. Quality is a top priority, with staff undergoing professional development courses to enhance their service levels and industry expertise. This focus ensures successful partnerships with clients from diverse markets, including mainland China, Vietnam, USA, Canada, Australia, and Europe.

    In a recent development, ABMT China has completed the construction of a state-of-the-art testing, color, and development laboratory, further emphasizing its commitment to quality and innovation.

    Access Fund

    Access Fund is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for the climbing community in the pursuit of sustainable access and conservation of the climbing environment. Climbing, as a sport, offers climbers a range of experiences, from pure joy and limitless challenge to wild freedom and a like-minded community. However, the places where climbers find these experiences need protection, and Access Fund strives to inspire climbers to care for these special places while ensuring that every climber has the opportunity to enjoy them.

    Founded in 1991, Access Fund initially fought for legal and physical access to climbing sites. Over the years, the organization has won significant victories in this battle. However, with the sport’s explosive growth, new challenges have emerged, and land managers now question whether climbers can access these sites sustainably without causing destruction. Access Fund has a 30-year history of advocacy victories, making it uniquely placed to face the new challenges head-on, fight for sustainable access, and protect and conserve the land. By building a nationwide community of inspired advocates, Access Fund is ensuring a sustainable future for climbing.

    To meet the exponential growth in climbing, Access Fund is scaling up its efforts to keep pace. By becoming a member of the largest and fastest-growing community of advocates, individuals can contribute to the fight to protect America’s climbing.

    AIARE

    Established in 1998 as a nonprofit educational organization, AIARE (American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education) has been dedicated to developing an evidence-based avalanche education model for backcountry users. With the belief that avalanche education, research, and training can prevent injuries and fatalities, AIARE has been disseminating research-based avalanche curriculum to over 110 Providers nationwide, as well as in France, Chile, and Argentina. The organization also offers professional and avalanche instructor training courses.

    The seed for AIARE was planted during a chance meeting between mountain guides in the California Sierra in 1992. AIARE co-founder Jean Pavillard taught courses for aspiring guides and noticed that their avalanche knowledge was somewhat uneven, attributing this to varying curriculum and quality among the avalanche education providers they’d learned from. Together with Karl Klassen, another mountain guide, they agreed that it was time for a unified approach to avalanche education. At the time, there was no nationally recognized curriculum despite the increasing popularity of backcountry recreation.

    Tom Murphy, the course director for Pavillard’s guiding company, recognized the need for an organized framework for assessing risk and moving through avalanche terrain. Klassen applied his curriculum development experience from the Canadian Avalanche Association to assist Pavillard and Murphy with their avalanche courses, and from this collaboration, AIARE was born in 1998.

    From the start, AIARE integrated national and international standards and incorporated a decision-makers’ approach to risk management in avalanche education. The organization initiated an instructor training program to maintain consistency among instructors and provide them with best practices for interacting with students. AIARE consults with qualified instructors when developing new curriculum and supplementary materials to ensure their products are based on a wide variety of experience, background, and knowledge. The result is a consensus-driven process that has produced an avalanche education program and training courses that meet the needs of the trainers and course participants alike.

    Today, AIARE curriculum provides avalanche education to more backcountry travelers than any other single avalanche education organization in the United States and trains over 100 new instructors every season. AIARE continues to develop standardized curricula for a complete program of avalanche courses that meets the needs of students at all levels, from recreational to professional, from novice to advanced.

    Aktion Agrar e.V. is a German charity organization that campaigns against current agricultural practices that have strayed from the common good, and advocates for sustainable, socially responsible, and rural farming practices. They strongly oppose the agricultural industry lobby and believe that the much-needed agricultural turnaround can only be achieved through a collective effort with farmers and consumers.

    Aktion Agrar works with farmers, city dwellers, and enthusiastic campaigners to create momentum for the agricultural turnaround. They support active initiatives and courageous farmers who show that things can be done differently, offering them a platform to showcase their efforts.

    Aktion Agrar offers information on current topics, workshops, and discussions with decision-makers to engage everyone since agricultural policy affects all. Their hundreds of supporters ensure their political and financial independence. Aktion Agrar also designs hands-on campaigns that offer many opportunities for people to stand up for a sustainable, better, and different agricultural policy.

    Access Fund is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for the climbing community in the pursuit of sustainable access and conservation of the climbing environment. Climbing, as a sport, offers climbers a range of experiences, from pure joy and limitless challenge to wild freedom and a like-minded community. However, the places where climbers find these experiences need protection, and Access Fund strives to inspire climbers to care for these special places while ensuring that every climber has the opportunity to enjoy them.

    Founded in 1991, Access Fund initially fought for legal and physical access to climbing sites. Over the years, the organization has won significant victories in this battle. However, with the sport’s explosive growth, new challenges have emerged, and land managers now question whether climbers can access these sites sustainably without causing destruction. Access Fund has a 30-year history of advocacy victories, making it uniquely placed to face the new challenges head-on, fight for sustainable access, and protect and conserve the land. By building a nationwide community of inspired advocates, Access Fund is ensuring a sustainable future for climbing.

    To meet the exponential growth in climbing, Access Fund is scaling up its efforts to keep pace. By becoming a member of the largest and fastest-growing community of advocates, individuals can contribute to the fight to protect America’s climbing.

    AIARE

    Established in 1998 as a nonprofit educational organization, AIARE (American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education) has been dedicated to developing an evidence-based avalanche education model for backcountry users. With the belief that avalanche education, research, and training can prevent injuries and fatalities, AIARE has been disseminating research-based avalanche curriculum to over 110 Providers nationwide, as well as in France, Chile, and Argentina. The organization also offers professional and avalanche instructor training courses.

    The seed for AIARE was planted during a chance meeting between mountain guides in the California Sierra in 1992. AIARE co-founder Jean Pavillard taught courses for aspiring guides and noticed that their avalanche knowledge was somewhat uneven, attributing this to varying curriculum and quality among the avalanche education providers they’d learned from. Together with Karl Klassen, another mountain guide, they agreed that it was time for a unified approach to avalanche education. At the time, there was no nationally recognized curriculum despite the increasing popularity of backcountry recreation.

    Tom Murphy, the course director for Pavillard’s guiding company, recognized the need for an organized framework for assessing risk and moving through avalanche terrain. Klassen applied his curriculum development experience from the Canadian Avalanche Association to assist Pavillard and Murphy with their avalanche courses, and from this collaboration, AIARE was born in 1998.

    From the start, AIARE integrated national and international standards and incorporated a decision-makers’ approach to risk management in avalanche education. The organization initiated an instructor training program to maintain consistency among instructors and provide them with best practices for interacting with students. AIARE consults with qualified instructors when developing new curriculum and supplementary materials to ensure their products are based on a wide variety of experience, background, and knowledge. The result is a consensus-driven process that has produced an avalanche education program and training courses that meet the needs of the trainers and course participants alike.

    Today, AIARE curriculum provides avalanche education to more backcountry travelers than any other single avalanche education organization in the United States and trains over 100 new instructors every season. AIARE continues to develop standardized curricula for a complete program of avalanche courses that meets the needs of students at all levels, from recreational to professional, from novice to advanced.

    About Bündnis Neckar Castorfrei

    Bündnis Neckar Castorfrei is a German anti-nuclear organization that has been working to address the issue of nuclear waste storage since 2005.

    Specifically, they are opposed to the transport of CASTOR nuclear waste containers on the River Neckar to an interim storage facility in Neckarwestheim. They advocate for the construction of an interim storage facility in Obrigheim instead, and call for an end to nuclear waste production and nuclear production altogether.

    The group is committed to rejecting what they see as an unnecessary and dangerous action and advocating for safer, more sustainable solutions to the issue of nuclear waste.

    Aktion Agrar e.V. is a German charity organization that campaigns against current agricultural practices that have strayed from the common good, and advocates for sustainable, socially responsible, and rural farming practices. They strongly oppose the agricultural industry lobby and believe that the much-needed agricultural turnaround can only be achieved through a collective effort with farmers and consumers.

    With the growing market power of agricultural and food companies, declining species and structural diversity, and the current European and national agricultural policy fueling these developments, Aktion Agrar is dedicated to tackling the necessary change. They believe that the image of agriculture propagated by the industry lobby endangers not only the climate and the environment but also the existence of many farms and a lively rural area.

    Aktion Agrar works with farmers, city dwellers, and enthusiastic campaigners to create momentum for the agricultural turnaround. They support active initiatives and courageous farmers who show that things can be done differently, offering them a platform to showcase their efforts. They also create creative campaigns that demand concrete political steps for rural agriculture that is ecological, socially acceptable, and animal-friendly.

    Aktion Agrar offers information on current topics, workshops, and discussions with decision-makers to engage everyone since agricultural policy affects all. Their hundreds of supporters ensure their political and financial independence. Aktion Agrar also designs hands-on campaigns that offer many opportunities for people to stand up for a sustainable, better, and different agricultural policy.
