WHAT ARE THE EARTHTALKS?
The EARTHtalks are an information and networking initative born out of civil society. The event brings together NGOs, social entrepreneurs, public institutions and interested members of the public and engages them in dialogue with national and international guest-speakers from the scientific community, environmental NGOs, politicians and civil society. During the EARTHtalks' main event our speakers talk on environmentally and socially relevant developments in science, activism, art, culture and politics and provide the motivation to act. After the talks everyones invited to the networking part and the organic buffet. The patron of the EARTHtalks is Federal President, Alexander Van der Bellen.
GOALS OF THE EARTHTALKS

The last EARTHtalks 2022
ANOTHER EMOTIONAL EVENING HAS COME TO AN END...
We have laughed together, trembled together, cried together, but also gained new strength,
to stand up for our planet and all living beings together .
If one message dominated the evening, it was that we cannot continue to live at the expense of our planet and all living beings. It is also important to support the protectors of the rainforests, who are on the front lines of this one-way street of capitalism and greed. If the indigenous peoples die, our future is also uncertain ...
Neongreen Network was able to collect donations for our guest Juma Xipaia and her association Instituto Juma at the EARTHtalks 2022. This way the indigenous activist (who constantly receives death threats, has to live separately from her children and had to interrupt her studies due to the threatening situation) can receive the support necessary to fight for the protection of the Amazon rainforest in safety.
Thank you to all the donors who have helped directly!
