My please: Please keep in mind, that it's hard to translate jokes, especially puns – but I gave my best. If you use any of these eco-jokes on the internet, I'd be very happy if you link to this elaborately created collection. Either way - thanks for your support!

Why jokes about ecos?

Who as possible lives sustainablyinevitably bumps into things here and there. Often one loses the smile - especially with regard to the urgency of social change to solve the social and ecological problems of our time. In this phase of patience, those who are ready to become part of the solution need an encouraging smile or two. For people who also laugh at yourself once in a while can and not take everything so seriously 24 hours a day, these "eco-jokes" are therefore just right.

Of course, these jokes are particularly suitable for those who have not yet found any access to environmental protection and sustainability. Use them for example as creative counter to criticism of one's own less ecological behavior. Be aware, however, that the jokes usually have no, reality-based context and therefore do not work as a logical "counter-argument".

Eco-jokes don't change the facts....

... that everyone should understand. Because the environmental problems of our time are real and endanger every life on earth - including our own and that of our own children and grandchildren. Short, green jokes may provide some distraction from this fact - but the ecological challenges remain.

Nevertheless, even as an environmentally conscious person, you shouldn't take everything too seriously and should be able to laugh at yourself every now and then. Anything else can be pretty depressing in the long run. Patience is needed - and the waiting time is much easier to bear by laughing now and then.
