Environmental challenges of our time!
Shoa Asfaha
Some of the environmental problems are caused by under-development, others as a result of industrialisation and technological development which did not take into account seriously sustainability of environmental systems and climate change.

An empowered nature for an empowering living!
Diversification of living organisms in a given habitat at a particular point in time is biodiversity. This constitutes a huge section of the Earth mass with unique genetics and characteristics. The evolution of a human from early man into the rural urban system is being continuously studied. But still food, shelter, water, clothes remain the basic requirement for a decent living.

What’s the hullabaloo about Biodiversity!
The sixth mass extinction in geological history has already begun! Well that’s what some of the
most accomplished and acclaimed Scientists of the world have been saying, a claim we must
certainly not ignore. While for some it may have come as a shock, but many of you would be
wondering about what caused the earlier mass extinctions? Over its long & rather strong
history, Life on planet Earth has endured five mass extinctions of species, caused by massive
volcanic eruptions, severe ice ages, meteorite impacts and colliding continents.

Climate Change - Perspective Towards Adaptive Management
Climate change impacts biodiversity in a myriad of ways. Some species may even flourish under climatic conditions which are more favourable as a result of climate change. However, the rate of warming predicted is greater than anything which has been experienced for millions of years. Consequently there is a strong possibility that many species will find the physiological stress associated with temperature and precipitation changes too great, making it impossible for them to adapt.

Blessing in Disguise
Spending time in the Quarantine situation can be really boring, isn’t it? With constant accelarating panic and tension and keeping a close watch in our television screen, we often lost ourselves in the increasing curve of the Covid -19 infection.

In the last decade, technology has seen an unprecedented growth. It isn’t really quantifiable, but it comes with its own set of pros and cons. I am a digital marketer and a nature-lover, therefore in my leisure time, I like to visit the mountains.

Plastic or Biodegradable Paper Bags - Singapore has the answer!!
Singapore is today possibly the cleanest and greenest cities in the world and has been so for last two decades or so. It is hard to believe that half a century back, 2/3rd of its population were living in inner city slums and squatter settlements with its streets strewn with litter, dirt and filled with the stench of rotting garbage. It just took 20 years of focused work on creating key intuitions and policies that systematically tackled every aspect of Singapore society.

Waste is not Waste!

Going back to the roots!
My husband and I have always been fond of home cooked food. Early marital life went well - from hunting a house to buying fancy tiffins etc. But, as days passed by, we changed cities, home but the tiffin boxes remained the same along with the yummy home cooked meals.

Let us choose the left for the right this time!
The picture shows two bottles; Left one is reusable and the right one is designed specifically for use and throw. Reusing plastic bottles will help reduce plastic waste. Refilling small bottles from bigger ones carrying safe clean drinking water is not only economic but environmentally safe. Let us choose the left for the right this time!

IPE Triple Line participates in the African Risk Capacity Technical Review Committee.
African Risk Capacity (ARC), a specialised agency of the African Union, is an African-owned, index-based weather risk insurance pool and early response mechanism that brings together the concepts of insurance and contingency planning. It has operated a drought insurance mechanism since 2013. It is part of an overall movement in Africa to increase sovereignty in disaster and humanitarian response and reduce dependence on international actors at times of national emergency.

The increasing threat of climate change
The world is waiting, watching and speculating if member states of the United Nations would join in to make the landmark global warming treaty, the Paris agreement, a living reality. The treaty has cleared the first pre-condition of atleast 55 countries ratifying it by 2016, and now the climate experts are anxiously waiting at the edge of their seats to see if it can fulfil the second hurdle too, of ensuring support from countries which account for a minimum of 55 per cent of global emissions.

Sustainable development in fragile ecologies: flood fury in Kashmir
Thousands and thousands of Kashmiri families are bearing the brunt of large scale trail of death and destruction left behind by the raging flood water, one of the biggest and most ferocious to hit the region in the century. As monsoon progresses flash floods and river water hits different parts of the country breaching embankments, eroding houses, tearing away roads and sometimes even swathes of hillsides, killing hundreds in the course. Last year similar flash floods and landslides had devastated the state of Uttarakhand killing 4,500 people.

Odd and Even Scheme, a response to alarming pollution level
Every climate debate and action is incomplete without understanding the core of transportation and mobility. The fact that transport sector alone is responsible for one fourth of the energy related GHG emissions worldwide is a proof of its centrality. It is also important to note that for establishing sustainable cities, sustainable transport should also be in place.
