How Terrestrial Biodiversity Influences Aquatic Diversity

|

Beyond Boundaries: How Land and Water Ecosystems Are Connected There is an intrinsic link between the land and all waterways. The air, land, and water cycles influence each other. The continuous movement of water through each of these cycles is important for planetary health (NASA, n.d.). Evaporation, transpiration, condensation, and runoff are some of the […]

Healthcare During COVID-19: How Has The Pandemic Impacted Health Systems?

|

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was classified as a pandemic on 11th March 2020, five years ago (WHO). Caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, this global healthcare crisis has resulted in tens of millions of deaths worldwide (Mathieu et al., 2020). COVID-19 also resulted in struggling health systems worldwide. Subsequent waves of the disease significantly impacted health service delivery,

Impacts of Ocean Acidification: A Growing Threat to Marine Life and Biodiversity

|

Introduction The rising level of anthropogenic carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has disastrous effects on the climate and Earth’s largest ecosystem, the ocean. 30% of current carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the atmosphere are absorbed by the oceans (Shadwick et al., 2023). Thus, substantially moderates the effects of climate change globally. However, it causes a

Climate Change and Its Impact on Vector-Borne diseases in Africa

|

Introduction Climate change is one of the most urgent health threats of the 21st century. It drives environmental shifts that directly harm human health. Occurrences of vector-borne diseases are rising rapidly and account for many newly emerging infectious diseases (Swei et al., 2020). Vector-borne diseases are infections transmitted by blood-feeding insects such as mosquitoes, ticks,

How Waterway Pollution Fuels Extreme Weather and Climate Disasters

|

Introduction Water and climate change are inextricably linked. Extreme weather makes water scarce, less predictable, and more polluted (UN Water, n.d.). Waterway pollution is becoming a critical global concern as climate change intensifies extreme weather events. Storms, floods, and hurricanes are now more frequent and more destructive, placing immense pressure on natural and built water systems.

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

Frozen But Alive: The Bacteria In Ice

|

Ice is widely used in beverages, food preservation, and medical applications. However, many people mistakenly assume that it is sterile. Research, however, shows that ice can harbour bacteria capable of surviving freezing temperatures. Freezing is a commonly used method for food preservation. However, harmful bacteria like Escherichia coli (E. coli), Salmonella spp., and Listeria monocytogenes

Back from Extinction: The Dire Wolf’s Second Chance

|

Introduction Scientists at Colossal Biosciences have brought back the Dire Wolf by using advanced cloning and gene-editing technology (Colossal, 2025; Gaj et. al, 2016). The scientific name of the Dire Wolf is Aenocyon Dirus (Britannica, 2025). This project represents Value-Based Innovation by using science to restore biodiversity in alignment with ethical and ecological values, and
