Nordic Power Converters
SDG 12 – Responsible Consumption and Production
http://nordicpowerconverters.com
Solution Description
Nordic Power Converters cut the size of power supplies to a fifth using a patented technology that combined RF circuits and power electronics. At the same time the technology also enable higher quality of light (less flicker and smoother dimming) and longer lifetime. With drivers from NPC, luminaire manufactures (our customers) are hence able to improve the design of their luminaries, improve the light from them and extend the lifetime of the overall product.
The reduced product size also means use of less materials, e.g. copper and magnetic core materials which is a rare-earth ressource. The improved quality of light provides a better environment for people working and living under these lights, with several proven positive effects. The extended lifetime of the driver solves the main lifetime issue for LED lighting and hence reduce the amount of waste.
The first product has been launched for street lighting, and the next product will be launched in May.

Solution Description
A sustainable alternative to the cotton swabs, cotton buds and Q-tips.
557 billion cotton swabs are produced every year and the average American uses 415 cotton swabs every year.
Even cotton swabs with wood or paper rods impact the environment. As they are single use, the average person uses hundreds of these each year. These cotton swabs need to be produced, warehoused, shipped, used and discarded. Raw materials are used and CO2 is created. This process becomes unnecessary with LastSwab. LastSwab can be used thousands of times.
The Swab is made up of a stiff, compact nylon core with soft medical silicone on each end, and is both aesthetically pleasant and functional.

SolarSack purifies 4 liters of water is reusable 600 times creating a total of 2400 liters of purified water, enough for a family of four for one year. With a end-user cost of $1-2, the solution is exponentially cheaper than the existing water purification methods.
Implementing the SolarSack worldwide would have an enormous impact on global health, as well as the environment. Globally, there are 2.1 billion people living without access to clean water; as highlighted by the UN’s sixth Sustainable Development Goal (Water and Sanitation), this is an acute need for solutions for clean water. Waterborne illnesses are claim the lives of 800 children every day, and 5 million people a year. Additionally, around the world up to 443 million school days are lost every year because of water-related illnesses. Of the 2.1 billion without access to water, the World Health Organization estimates that half of them clean their water by boiling it, using bioenergy – such as firewood and charcoal. The consumption of bioenergy for water sanitation purposes has an incredibly negative impact on the environment, taking 1.35 billion trees and emitting 319 million tons of c02 a year. The SolarSack is the perfect solution to limiting dependence on firewood, and providing clean drinking water that is widely available to consumers living on less than $2 a day would essentially eliminate their exposure to waterborne illnesses.

Solution Description
Half the population on earth have periods for the majority of their lives. Yet no period innovations have happened in over 50 years.
Now consider the amount of waste created each month by disposable period products. Consider the chemicals they contain, and that we put inside our bodies. Consider the young girls who stay away from school because they are ashamed of their periods.
We’re on a journey to change the way periods affect our lives, our bodies and our environment.
Since our launch in 2012, we’ve changed the way people think about that time of the month. Today, more than 700.000 OrganiCups has been sold – and with thousands of 5-star reviews across our social platforms, and the fact that 9 out of 10 who try the OrganiCup for 90 days will continue to use it – we’re convinced that this is the future of menstruation. Switching to OrganiCup is one small step for women all over the world to make a huge contribution to the environment.
The OrganiCup can last for up to 10 years, meaning that one OrganiCup user can potentially save the landfill for 2640 pads and tampons within those 10 years. Furthermore, OrganiCup can contain 3 times more than pads and tampons, which means most people just need to empty it morning and evening = no interruptions during the day or night. ¼ of the fluids absorbed by a tampon are natural and necessary vaginal secretions. OrganiCup only collects, thus eliminating irritation and dryness while ensuring the natural pH-balance is kept intact.

Aguardio is a plug and play solution and consist of two devices: a sensor placed at the ceiling in the shower cabinet, and a display placed on the wall in the shower cabinet.
The Aguardio sensor collects data on shower behavior via two individual sensors registering movement and sound. Also, data on humidity and temperature are collected and uploaded to a cloud via Wi-Fi.
The data on movement and sound are automatically transmitted to the Aguardio display as soon as the shower begins showing bath length. This means, that the display timer stops if water is turned off e.g. while shampooing, and the total bath length is shown when the user leaves the shower cabinet. Pilot test shows, that Aguardio can reduce the shower time by 20 percent per shower.
Though, it is not a prerequisite for use of Aguardio, all data can be accessed via web access or app. Here it is possible to identify specific shower patterns, e.g. to what extent the user let water run before entering the shower, or if the user over time reduces shower time. Data on humidity and temperature are also accessible via the app. All data can be used both for individual tracking, for operational optimization and for gamification-benchmark – all depending on who the user is: individuals or organizations.

WATER MANAGEMENT: Technically the Climate Tile can catch and redirect 30% of the projected extra rainwater coming due to climate change, and thereby prevent overloads within the existing drainage infrastructure. By being a positive addition to cities’ drainage system the damages caused by heavy rain are highly reduced, while the need for rainwater filtering decreases. The Climate Tile is 795 x 620 mm and is organized with a modular system where you can replace one tile instead of digging up an entire sidewalk. The scaling potential of the product is comprehensive. Only in Copenhagen we have more than 700 kilometers and New York has 20.000 kilometers of sidewalks. The climate tile allows the water to run down into an integrated and underground water handling system. The tiles are peppered with a system of holes, tunnels and ridges that collect and manage rainwater, funnelling it away from sidewalks – where it can cause damage – to a preferred use like irrigating nearby plantings. The system thereby reintroduces the natural water circuit and urban microclimate comfort by using trees and plants directly as hydraulic recipients.
ADDED VALUE TO OUR CITIES: The Climate Tile develops and couples traditionally separate functions. With the development of The Climate Tile, future sidewalks will collect and manage water, whilst contributing to the growth of an urban nature and improved micro-climate. Thereby the tile generates added value for the citizens and raises the level of life quality and general health within the city. The project is seen largely as an inclusive solution in synergy with both roads, bike paths, signage, urban furniture, town squares, urban nature and more.
PILOT SIDEWALK AT NØRREBRO: A pilot sidewalk for the Climate Tile was inaugurated in September 2018 in front of the café Heimdalsdgade22 in Copenhagen, to the delight of guests and residents in the street. The sidewalk not only contributes to the street’s climate adaptation, but it also adds further qualities to the street in terms of trees and planting, spaces for stay and a more beautiful surface.
ABOUT THIRD NATURE: THIRD NATURE is a Copenhagen based office, consisting of 25 qualified and ambitious architects, landscape architects and constructing architects specialized in the fields of hybrid buildings, climate adapted landscapes and urban planning. With a unique hybrid look at the city, we explore new sustainable paradigms for the interaction between city, landscape, houses, types of settlement, climate and general community development.
Within the name, THIRD NATURE, lies a strong belief and agenda to merge buildings and biology into a new city-nature typology. By eliminating the border between city and landscape, we create a symbiosis centred on making a sensuous and meaningful everyday life in the city.
THIRD NATURE aims to make a real difference, where we design with the climate, with nature and with a design that goes beyond aesthetics – high quality of life in cities is not achieved by solely looking at buildings, sustainability, aesthetics, solutions, cities or biology alone.
THIRD NATURE tries in every project to show and encourage the world with new positivistic approaches and ideas to deal with future urban challenges.

Consumers all over the world are driving the natural and healthy trend. Growing food and beverage consumption is driven by the rise in the global middle-income population and their overall interest in healthy living and clean product labels. The world population continues to grow. So, does the farmers’ demand for higher yields on less land, as the availability of new agricultural land is very limited. Crop yields are already at high levels and climate change adds additional stress to productivity. The crop protection industry is continuously challenged to develop novel solutions to combat increased pest resistance to chemicals. However, chemicals development timelines and costs are extremely high whereas biologic solutions represent a lower development cost. Governments increasingly ban older crop protection technologies, like chemicals and increase entry barriers, while encouraging the development of new safer technologies to protect human health and the environment.
According to a sugarcane farmer in Brazil that is using Chr. Hansen’s natural plant health microbial solutions feels that these products provide the farmer with an improvement in yield, saving money from discarded crops. They also have a positive effect in protecting the farmers crops from diseases and reducing nematode damage.

An independent consumer study was carried out in Germany with a research organization in order to explore how extending shelf life affects consumer acceptance. Blind sensory tests documented that there was no difference in consumers’ liking a yogurt with standard shelf life and one with seven days’ additional shelf life. The study also showed that the consumer purchase intention was influenced positively and even favored the yogurt with longer shelf life if consumers were presented with information about the food waste reduction potential. The results reinforce the ambition of Chr. Hansen to continue to reduce food waste in yogurt, and to activate this opportunity even further at customer level.

Since 2017 we have systematically assessed new external managers that invest on behalf of us, with regards to their ability to invest in line with our policy on responsible investment. The purpose of this is that we want to change the way the industry works, by asking the external managers to integrate ESG in their decision making process prior to making an investment, and choose to invest in companies that provide decent working conditions (SDG 8), and do have systems in place to prevent and mitigate negative impact on people and environment. Since 2017 we have done this across the asset classes that we invest in.
Additionally, we have invested in 3 funds where the SDGs are at the core of the funds investments. The funds are
– Actis Infrastructure Fund, which primarily invest in renewable energy in markets like Chile and India.
– Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners Funds, which invest in renewable energy in markets like Europe and Taiwan
– IFU SDG fund, which invest in infrastructure and companies supporting the SDGs
