As cities worldwide grapple with heat waves, pollution, and climate change, urban gardens have emerged as a powerful, scalable solution. Far beyond aesthetic improvements, these green spaces actively capture carbon, reduce urban heat, and filter airborne pollutants, while fostering community resilience and biodiversity in dense urban environments. In 2025, with global urban populations exceeding 57% … Read more
You have a clear goal: get people in your community to care about climate change and take action. But even the most inspiring local climate awareness event can fall flat if no one shows up or if people leave without feeling moved to act. The concrete answer is this: to promote a local climate awareness … Read more
The food choices you make every day have a direct impact on the planet’s carbon footprint, often more than you think. Foods like beef and lamb are among the highest carbon emitters, while plant-based staples such as beans, grains, and vegetables are among the lowest. If you want to reduce your carbon emissions, shifting even … Read more
Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions are categories businesses use to measure and report their greenhouse gas emissions, helping them understand and reduce their carbon footprint. Why Scope 1, 2, and 3 Emissions Matter Businesses need to measure all scopes to set real climate goals. Investors and consumers increasingly demand transparency. Regulators in the … Read more
Carbon neutral certification is an independent verification that a company, product, service, or event has measured all its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, reduced them as much as possible, and offset the remaining emissions through credible climate projects, so that the net climate impact is zero. This certification is increasingly backed by international standards (like PAS … Read more
Climate change is no longer a distant threat; it’s a daily reality affecting neighborhoods, infrastructure, and public health. Cities feel these impacts more directly than most areas due to their high population density, energy consumption, and resource use. Urban heat islands, air pollution, flooding, and waste management issues are just a few consequences that show … Read more
Rewilding is a science-based approach to ecological restoration that reintroduces native species, restores natural processes, and reduces human control over land management to rebuild self-sustaining ecosystems. In Europe today, rewilding is not a fringe conservation idea – it is a necessary response to three interlinked crises: biodiversity collapse, climate change, and rural land abandonment. According … Read more
Climate change is reshaping the risk landscape for cities across the United States. Rising seas, stronger storms, extreme heat, prolonged droughts, rampant wildfires, and intense flooding are increasingly testing the resilience of urban areas. While no place is entirely immune to climate impacts, some cities are far better positioned to withstand these challenges than others … Read more
As the climate crisis accelerates, strategies to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) are urgently needed. While technologies like carbon capture and storage (CCS) gain attention, an often overlooked but powerful ally lies beneath our feet: healthy, carbon-rich soil. Soil carbon refers to carbon present in organic and inorganic forms in the soil. The majority exists … Read more
Climate change is not a distant threat—it’s happening now, accelerating in ways many once thought would take centuries. A critical piece of this puzzle revolves around carbon sinks—natural systems that capture and store carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere. These sinks have acted as buffers against the worst effects of human-induced emissions. However, emerging evidence … Read more
