#ECC2026 I keep thinking about one small detail: delegates were invited to bring their own water bottle and lanyard. I did. 🤏 Small thing? Yes 🌱 Meaningless? Not at all “Shifting Grounds” is also about how small choices become collective change #ECREA2026 #Sustainability #ECREA @ecreaeu.bsky.social
