Bierol, a brewery in Tyrol (Austria) and the environmental organization Protect our Winters Austria (POW) have joined forces to save what everyone loves: Austrian mountains and their surrounding nature. With a beer that was crafted for this special project they want to set an example for proper recycling and promote the importance of a more circular economy. Jede Dose zählt supports the project with its expertise in can recycling.


How does a beer help the environment?
It’s super easy: “Cold Stoke” – a Pale Ale filled in cans is the ideal beer to take up on the mountain and enjoy in beautiful nature. There is no chance of breaking or sunshine changing the taste of the beer. When the can is empty however, it becomes even more powerful: Because for every recycled can of “Cold Stoke” Bierol donates 50 Cents to POW and the money directly goes into environmental projects.


Christoph Bichler, head brewer and owner of Bierol, mentioned: “The aluminium recycling rate in Austria is currently at 70 percent, that is not enough. If we want to protect our environment, we have to be more careful with resources and more importantly, we cannot leave packaging lying around in nature. With our new campaign we want to draw attention to this issue and be part of the change.”

Drink. Recycle. Protect our nature.
“Cold Stoke” is the first Austrian beer that sets an example for environmental protection in this specific way and everyone can be part of it: Buy a “Cold Stoke“, enjoy the taste and send a photo of recycling the empty can to the Instagram account of @protectourwintersaustria –Bierol will then donate 50 Cents to the NGO.


The beer is now available in the Bierol online shop and selected beer shops in Austria.

Cada Lata Cuenta invites us to reflect on responsible consumption at Christmas

Cada Lata Cuenta invites us to reflect on responsible consumption at Christmas 2560 853 adminEirini

The Fuenlabrada City Council (Community of Madrid) and Cada Lata Cuenta have inaugurated two sustainable murals made with recycled beverage cans for the Christmas festivities.
These two Pixelatas are created from 4000 recycled cans and establish a contrasting conversation between the image of a girl and the deep and direct gaze of a chimpanzee.


The installation suggests how the chimpanzee, which shares 99% of its genes with humans, behaves so differently. It lives in harmony with the rest of the creatures allowing the ecosystem to be sustainable in the long term. However, the human being seems to function in the opposite way to the chimpanzee, living disconnected from nature, following an unsustainable life model.


For the second consecutive year, the Fuenlabrada City Council has collaborated with Cada Lata Cuenta to spread the message ​​of sustainability and recycling to the people through recycled art, reminding them that even during the holidays, they should never stop caring about the environment.
