April 2014)Sogn - Today, April 22, is Earth Day 2014 and what better way to celebrate than to give an example of one teenager's aims to reduce her environmental impact on the world. To that end, this 19-year-old student has lived in a cave for almost a year.
Ida Beate Løken, a student from the Sogn Agriculture and Horticulture School in Norway, moved into a cave for almost a year with only a good quality sleeping bag to protect her from the harsh Norwegian winter.
Ida decided to move into the cave in May 2013, saying she wished to reduce her environmental impact to close to nothing. She told Norway’s TV2 network, "It's much more fun to stay there."
