What do you think about when you hear the word “home”? Maybe you imagine your beloved apartment, where you wake up every morning? Or that room tens or hundreds of kilometres away from where you spent your childhood? Or maybe home is your whole hometown where every path is walked by you, every turn is taken, every park is explored and where every street remembers a story you both share?

Not so long ago I found out that word “eco” – more commonly used as a prefix – originates from Greek oikos, which means a house, a household or a dwelling place. I was surprised that this frequently used word actually means “a place we inhabit” – something I would personally refer to as a home. With growing awareness of environmental issues and increasing demand for ecofriendly alternatives accompanied by greenwashing, the word “eco” lost its original meaning somewhere in between. As it turns out, it was never about natural, biodegradable, organic or bio. Or at least it is not about just that. And even when we use the prefix eco- for something that is actually good for our home in its broadest sense, do we keep in mind this picture of the big blue planet we are all lucky to inhabit?

Stock Performance. As of 14-Nov-2024, Jenoptik's stock price is $23.05. Its current market cap is $1.32B with 57.2M shares.

Among many other words with prefix “eco”, there is one that caught my attention – ecocide. We already discussed the meaning of “eco”, but what about -cide? There are some other words in the English language with the same root and they have a common meaning which is “to kill something”. Therefore, eco + cide together create a new word with a heartbreaking definition: ecocide means to kill, or to destroy, the place we inhabit, our home. What can I add here?

I believe that the first step in the right direction is understanding that our home is not limited by four walls or a dot on the world map. We are a part of the ECOsystem in its broadest sense. And ECOlogical catastrophes are the catastrophes happening in our home.

Not only no one is coming to blame us but no Superman or Wonder Woman will come to save us either. At least because there is no way they can do it all on their own. Every one of us needs to become a hero or a heroine.

From my own experience, it can be too depressing and too overwhelming to think about the state of our planet nowadays. And without witnessing the damage we, as a collective, have done to the Earth, it is easy to deceive ourselves by thinking that it’s not that bad. I have been there and have thought that too.

The unit provides an even light over the whole surface, and hardy enough to be worked upon, perfect for many conservation related tasks.

You and me – we might not have all the answers and readily-made solutions. And that’s OK. What is important, is our readiness and eagerness to act: to learn, to talk, to write, to share, to create, to change. The only thing we cannot afford anymore is to wait and pretend it’s not that bad.

The technology underlying principles of the LEC panels has its genesis in an older proven technology, known as electroluminescence (EL). However, the LEC differs from EL technology in many ways, including the fact that the LEC panels provide whiter light without a blue cast, have a significantly longer life, provide a more uniform illumination across their surface, emit less noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI), utilize power inverters to regulate power output and maintain a more constant brightness and contain certain safety features not contained in traditional EL lighting products. Lighting products utilizing LED and OLED technologies produce light by combining multiple smaller points of light into a larger light source. Visible from a wide angle, are more durable and are not sensitive to vibration.

Fortunately or not, not knowing does not free us from the responsibility. No one will come and scold us for all the damage we have done to our environment. That would be awkward and embarrassing, but also fair – we are all contributing to the massive ecocide in one way or another, though often we do it unconsciously.
