It all began in 1982, when six activists took the environmental bible of the time, the first environmental report in history called "global 2000", as a model and began to shape Austria's environmental policy. Since then a lot has happened. 

GLOBAL 2000 grew into the leading part of the Austrian environmental movement. As an active member of "Friends of the Earth International" they fight for an intact environment, a sustainable society and a sustainable economy. 

They do everything they can to change their world for the better. That means, no matter what environmental issue it is: They are committed to the good and the beautiful. Because it is nice to bite into an organic apple without hesitation, to offer children healthy, varied foods and to be able to use intact living spaces. It is just as nice to go shopping with a clear conscience because they ensure fair trade conditions and people, animals and plants live together peacefully.
