"SERBIA IS RECYCLING!"
Over 20.000 visitors attended the third edition of Supernatural Festival at the Hajdučka Česma, Košutnjak. As the condition to enter the festival was to bring three aluminum and three plastic bottles, we are proud to announce that nearly 10,000 visitors came to the festival following this condition. By the end of the festival we collected over 150.000 plastic bottles and aluminum cans brought by festival visitors for recycling. That is just over 2 tons of waste! Around 96% of the festival visitors entered festival for free (by recycling), so we can say that the mission of Supernatural 2009 edition is accomplished. We showed that recycling is possible in Serbia, that the citizens are aware of environmental issues and that the people in Serbia do care for the future of their children. The third festival went without any serious problems, leaving police patrols and ambulance without any action. Rambo Amadeus and Dub Pistols got the biggest attention from the festival visitors, while Flip and MKDSL did their best at the DJ "Disko Livada" stage. At one instance, representatives of the KST handed Rambo Amadeus the award for the top-ecologist which stands for the public figure that did the best public promotion of the environmental awareness. Rambo received the glass windmill made of recycled material by Dimitrije Anđelković as a gift for his advocacy of the ecological principles. Preparations for the Supernatural Festival 2010 edition are on the way. See you at the Hajdučka Česma in the year 2010.!!!

"Notos - Wind Energy"
"Notos Wind Energy" is an alternative energy developer that specializes in producing electricity from the power of wind. With a strategic plan and the appropriate alliances now in place, Notos is preparing to begin the development phase of its program. There are great regional differences in the availability of wind energy in Serbia and significant differences are present even at small distances. The availability of wind energy in Serbia is greater in lower areas than in higher ones. The Northern part of Serbia is characterized by a strong local southeast wind – Košava.
One region in Serbia especially interesting for Notos is Vojvodina AP, with almost two-thirds of its area having wind speed that exceeds 4 m/s. The Pannonian Plain, north of the Danube, covers approximately 2000 square kilometers and is suitable for the construction of wind generators because the basic infrastructure, from roads to the electricity grid, already exists. The prerequisite constant level of 5 m/s can be found in several locations: Bela Crkva, Indija, Irig, Sombor, Novi Sad, Vršac, and Zrenjanin.

"Biomass – Natural Energy"
Biomass consists of biodegradable parts of general waste and waste generated by farming & foresting industries, or industrial and communal waste that can be used as fuel. Biomass doesn't pollute - Serbia can realize nearly 30 percent of its energy requirements with the use of biomass technology. Biomass is a renewable source of energy, nearly inexhaustible. It doesn't contribute to the global warming, wood, for an example is a completely natural material. By combusting the waste wood no extra carbon dioxide is released into atmosphere. Biomass technology doesn't require tree-cutting because the biomass briquettes consist entirely of waste and industrially unusable wood. Also, when it comes to biomass, by simply combusting the wooden waste material, we prevent further sulfur dioxide emission in the atmosphere. High concentration of sulfur dioxide creates the harmful acid rain and other acidic forms of precipitation that are extremely harmful to people, plants, aquatic animals and infrastructure.

"Flying Bag Workshop"
Plastic bags became to be the prominent feature of the urban landscapes. Where there are people, there are plastic bags around. Carried by the wind, they can travel as much as thousand miles until they land on the fence or tree, waving freely for the next five hundred years. Plastic bags will outlive us all! They are practically indestructible and their number is growing rapidly. Plastic bags remind us that maybe we are just members of the consumer club. But there may be a solution! By transforming plastic bags into the raw material later used to create more consumer goods, we can put an end to the capitalist logic: production-consummation-disposal. This way we can also transform ourselves, as well, from the mere consumers into something more meaningful. So, bring your piled plastic bags, or collect some from the streets and come to the flying bag workshop. There you will get the chance to pick up a few tricks and learn some techniques to help you start and hopefully end your transformation. www.bagsontrees.org
