Interceptors: River Cleaning Systems

|

Approximately 1000 rivers worldwide contribute to the majority of ocean pollution (The Ocean Cleanup, 2021). Ocean pollution is a significant threat to marine life and ecosystem health, concerning the THRIVE Focus Foundational Factor (FFF) of Strong Sustainability. This FFF works towards creating an evironment that benefits nature. This pollution also impacts human health and recreational

Air Pollution and the Regenerative Future: Why Clean Air Matters for Thrivability

|

Introduction Air pollution is a significant global problem, and human beings have contributed significantly to this issue. Air Quality Indices (AQI) around the world are showing unhealthy levels of pollution and particulate matter owing to the burning of fossil fuels and unhealthy practices such as mining (ABC, 2020). Some cities have such severe air pollution

Smart Farming: Sustainable Agricultural Storage, Irrigation, and Greenhouse Systems

|

Introduction to Smart Farming According to recent estimates, the world population will hit 9.6 billion by 2050, which will require a 70% increase in food production. This presents a major challenge for farmers who already struggle with limited resources, climate change, and a growing demand for sustainable farming practices (Elkady, 2023). The agricultural sector must

Climate Change affects Health: Rising Risks and Adaptation

|

Climate change is not a distant threat, it has become a health emergency affecting communities worldwide. Experts now call climate change ‘the biggest global health threat of the 21st century’ (Romanello et al., 2024), meaning that rising temperatures, shifting weather patterns, and more extreme events are already harming human health. From heatwaves that claim lives

Gender Equity In Biodiversity Conservation

|

Women play a crucial role in agrobiodiversity and are key decision-makers in biodiversity conservation. However, gender blindness and a lack of gender equality persist, limiting conservation and resilience. Recognising the vital role women play in biodiversity conservation and increasing resilience to climate change is important at the international policy level. This increased recognition will lead

Assessing the Contribution of Biochar as a Renewable Energy Resource in the Fight Against Climate Change

|

Biochar is a carbon-rich substance that does not degrade in the soil even when left there for millennia. It can also be used as a renewable energy resource. Biochar’s high stability and potential use in carbon sequestration inspired the combustion-based sequestration of carbon-based materials. Because of its capacity to trap carbon with little effort, it

Land Clearance In Queensland Is Still Occurring At An Alarming Rate

|

In the sun-drenched expanse of Queensland, a sobering reality persists – land clearance continues to unfold at an alarming rate. Efforts from the state to reduce the impact of this devastating industry have proved lacklustre. The numbers are staggering – within the past five years, almost 2 million hectares of forest have been destroyed within
