Point of view: Let’s break up (the ground)!
Instead of continuing to build on large areas of the ground beneath our feet, we should unseal it wherever possible and do ourselves a favour, says Marion Ebster. She runs the Ground:breaking project – which includes an Alpine-wide unsealing competition.

Re-Imagine Alps
[Project completed] Relations between humans, and between humans and nature, are the focus of the “Re-Imagine Alps” project. People take responsibility for their environment when they feel concerned and involved. Landscape here serves as a frame of reference and focal point for the perception and communication of sustainability issues: various relationships, memories and visions are illuminated in respect of, by, and for landscape in the overall Alpine context. Responsibilities and obligations grow out of ideas and relationships.
