Your One Nation Paris Outlet center is getting involved: to mark European Sustainable Development Week, workshops are being organized to raise awareness among young and old of the challenges of preserving the environment and the circular economy.
Get closer to nature, learn gardening techniques and understand what a healthy garden means.
These days, it's hard to live without a little green space. The Collaborative Garden is an ideal shared space where you take care of the land and grow your own plants. This concept encourages sharing and solidarity.
Fun and entertaining, this workshop for children, led by a gardener, will enable them to make their own pot with a plan and a bulb, and leave with it.
Weekends of September 18/19 and 25/26, from 2pm to 6pm.
Free workshop.
To raise awareness of over-consumption and the abundance of plastic waste, One Nation Paris Outlet is offering an assembly game workshop using recycled corks, in collaboration with the association Les Bouchons d'Amour. Developing children's creativity while getting them thinking about environmental issues, this workshop will enable them to reuse and recycle plastic corks to make different figurines. Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed!
Weekends of September 18/19 and 25/26, from 2pm to 6pm.
Free workshop.
In parallel, from September 18 to October 8, 2021, a collection of plastic bottle caps will be held at the Cour de Marbre patio. The corks collected will be donated directly to the association, which will determine the value of the donation in euros. This donation will be used to purchase equipment for people with disabilities.
In France, each inhabitant produces an average of 568kg of waste per year (ADEM, 2020). With this in mind, One Nation Paris Outlet has set up a Sorting Center workshop to introduce children to the importance of recycling to preserve the planet and reduce waste.
Equipped with an apron, gloves and a hairnet, children will be given a bucket full of waste icons (apple core, plastic bottle, tin can...), with the aim of sorting them into the right containers for correct recycling and avoiding waste. At the end of the workshop, children will receive their recycler's diploma.
Weekends of September 18/19 and 25/26, from 2pm to 6pm.
Free workshop.
Designed from the outset in 2013 to meet environmental challenges, One Nation Paris Outlet's avant-garde architecture means that today it emits almost 80% less carbon particles than other shopping centers.
- Thanks to its open-air architecture, One Nation Paris Outlet emits no CO2 particles in its common areas (shopping arcades). Air conditioning and heating in these areas, which represent gigantic volumes to be heated or cooled, are the main sources of CO2 emissions.
- A glass roof collects rainwater, which is then used to water the green spaces (inside and out) and clean the center.
-The use of unprocessed raw materials in the construction of the center, the installation of warm air curtains at the entrance to each store to prevent heat dispersion, and the use of LED lighting also help to reduce carbon particle emissions.
