Micro plastics, tiny plastic particles less than 5mm in size, are becoming a massive environmental issue. While March attention has been given to the micro plastic source like packaging textiles and tires, paint place an insignificant and under recognized contribution to the problem . Paints, commonly used in construction, industry and art, degrade over time, […]

Coral reefs are the most biodiverse ecosystem on the planet, providing a very crucial role in the habitat of marine life and offering protection against coastal erosion.  However, human activities are posing a great threat to these dynamic ecosystems, with microplastic contamination becoming a major worry. Microplastics, tiny fragments of plastic less than 5 mm

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) offers a sustainable solution to reduce production costs by decreasing reliance on municipal water supplies and lowering utility bills. This report explores the economic benefits, environmental advantages, and operational improvements associated with implementing RWH systems. Key findings demonstrate significant cost savings, with case studies highlighting up to 30-40% reductions in water-related expenses.

Water scarcity is a crucial global issue impacting more than millions of people and ecosystems. As climate change worsens, the urgency of sustainable water management grows. Rainwater is a plentiful and renewable resource that presents a viable solution to this crisis. By collecting and using rainwater, communities can lessen dependency on the traditional water sources

This report explores the vital role trees play in supporting urban biodiversity. It discusses how trees contribute to ecological balance in cities by providing habitats, food, and microclimates for various species. Challenges to urban biodiversity, such as urbanization and pollution, are examined, along with actionable recommendations for enhancing biodiversity through strategic tree planting and community

Planting trees is often viewed primarily as an environmental activity, but it also holds immense potential to generate employment and stimulate economic growth. From reforestation projects to urban greening initiatives, tree-planting programs create diverse job opportunities while contributing to environmental sustainability. This report explores how planting trees can provide employment, support local economies, and address

Zero net carbon emissions, also known as carbon neutrality, refer to the balance between the amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere and the amount removed or offset. Achieving zero net carbon emissions is critical to mitigating the effects of climate change, which threaten ecosystems, economies, and human well-being worldwide. Dr. Muhammad Yunus, in

Achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 is imperative to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change. Solar energy, as a clean and abundant resource, is poised to play a pivotal role in this global transition. This report explores how solar energy can contribute to reaching net-zero emissions by midcentury. Context and Background The global

Deforestation and Its Impact on Biodiversity Deforestation, the large-scale clearing of forests for agricultural, industrial, and urban development, poses a significant threat to global biodiversity. Forests are home to approximately 80% of the world’s terrestrial species, including a wide range of plants, animals, fungi, and microorganisms. The destruction of these habitats leads to habitat fragmentation,
