We are Heroes
The aim of this Grenius website is to provide information to readers about the link between repairing and protecting our natural environment.
This link may seem far removed but through repairing and caring,the burden on waste landfill sites is greatly reduced. How? Quite simply by extending the life, rather than throwing it away.
This means there is less pollution from hazardous substances seeping into the ground, less of our countryside is used for waste disposal, biodiversity is encouraged, and we can all enjoy a safer, healthier, greener environmental lifestyle with less pollution.
Fully Organic
An organic product can broadly be described as not containing toxic chemicals (including synthetic pesticides, arsenic-containing herbicides, fertilization biosolids, which are often found to contain flame retardants and drugs among other things,
chemical food additives, antibiotics, synthetic hormones, and industrial solvents). In addition to the absence of artificial chemicals, "organic" means not genetically engineered, and having not used ionizing irradiation, which can cause free-radicals and the removal of vitamins.
For example, USDA organic attempts to restrict against such things including genetic engineering in products or in the products' animal feed, and automatically allows the use of "Non-GMO" labelling similar to The Non-GMO Project.
Fully Renewable Energy
Renewable energy flows involve natural phenomena such as sunlight, wind, tides, plant growth, and geothermal heat, as the International Energy Agency explains:
Renewable energy is derived from natural processes that are replenished constantly. In its various forms, it derives directly from the sun, or from heat generated deep within the earth.
Included in the definition is electricity and heat generated from solar, wind, ocean, hydropower, biomass, geothermal resources, and biofuels and hydrogen derived from renewable resources.
Renewable energy resources and significant opportunities for energy efficiency exist over wide geographical areas, in contrast to other energy sources, which are concentrated in a limited number of countries.
Rapid deployment of renewable energy and energy efficiency, and technological diversification of energy sources, would result in significant energy security and economic benefits.
It would also reduce environmental pollution such as air pollution caused by burning of fossil fuels and improve public health, reduce premature mortalities due to pollution and save associated health costs that amount to several hundred billion dollars annually only in the United States.
Renewable energy sources, that derive their energy from the sun, either directly or indirectly, such as hydro and wind, are expected to be capable of supplying humanity energy for almost another 1 billion years.

First Aid Association
First Aid AssociationAn accident happened in no time. Often cleaning and a plaster is enough, but sometimes it is more serious. And when do you get professional help? In addition, you notice that more and more people are dependent on themselves for a longer period of time before professional help arrives. Knowledge and skills of first aid are very important to provide the best possible help. Knowing what to do and how to do it can make the difference between life and death for a victim.First Aid Association / EHBO Vereniging
