Nanna Kalmar

My name is Nanna Kalmar, I’m 19 years old, and I live in a small town called Ryomgaard, in Denmark.

I am very passionate about science and mediation of knowledge, particularly physics, IT and microbiology.

Other than science, I like to read, write short stories, cook, sing, and I also do a bit of tabletop role-playing games.

Tell us what the water concern in your country is!

A big water concern in Denmark is the contamination of drinkable groundwater, due to the use of agricultural pesticides.

This is what I think is one of the solutions for a sustainable future:

We must all get better at using our ressources more wisely, whether this is by recycling, eating more plant-based foods, or buying materialistic goods less frequently. Furthermore, we also need sustainable technology to help us into a sustainable future, e.g. vertical farming, carbon-capture, etc.
