You might have already described the living conditions you will offer and explained the choices you made to the participants during the preparation phase (cf.

Whatever you decide to do, **take time to inform the participants** about it and to **open a discussion on the matter**. At a time when most people (and especially the youngest) are used to have an almost permanent access to their (smart)phone, to a computer with an internet connection, to an outlet to charge any of their electronic devices, and to a wide range of electronic appliances for cleaning or cooking, limiting your consumption of electricity might become a challenge. But it is definitively worth it if we want to enjoy the Earth longer! | Whatever you decide to do, **take time to inform the participants** about it and to **open a discussion on the matter**.

In previous Tours, for example, we did it through a **brainstorming exercise in small groups** on various topics such as **water**, **energy**, **waste**, **food** and **traveling**. Pencils and paper were given to the groups so they could write down what they came up with and then to present them to the whole group. | In previous Tours, for example, we did it through a **brainstorming exercise in small groups** on various topics such as **water**, **energy**, **waste**, **food** and **traveling**.

For example, the participants from Greece, Italy, France and Portugal traveled to the Heterotopia Tour we organized in Portugal in June 2018 in total **115 041 km (roundtrip)**. By this **19.1 tones of carbon dioxide** were emitted. We calculated that we would need to plant 191 trees by using a conservative conversion of 1 tonne CO2 per 10 trees. Some have been planted on the venue during the Tour and the rest during a public tree planting event in November 2018. | For example, the participants from Greece, Italy, France and Portugal traveled to the Heterotopia Tour we organized in Portugal in June 2018 in total **115 041 km (roundtrip)**.
