The fashion industry, especially "Fast Fashion", is responsible for huge environmental impacts, such as loss of biodiversity, climate change, pollution etc. This video is about how can we mitigate the harmful effects of clothing from a consumer view.
Have you ever imagined growing food from waste? We did it! We were capable of turning waste into potential material for sustainable agriculture while empowering the local rural community to mitigate and adapt to climate change effects, preserving the local natural resources, and protecting the environment despite all the challenges our country is facing.
This story is about coffee planting by a non-coffee-consuming community in Manghe Village, southwestern China. Whereas selling of dried coffee beans has yielded the majority of the income for the local farmers, and this area is said to be the future's largest Yunnan Arabica coffee source for the country, and serving the world's needs, drinking coffee seems a luxury to the locals. While climate change has switched much land use in the higher elevational areas into coffee fields, I wonder if this would also impact the current coffee farming in Manghe and the possible outcome related to deforestation and land conversion.
New reforms to education in Africa are transforming learning opportunities for the continent's youth, but learners still lack access to relevant skills that will help them secure employment opportunities. What can be done? I am passionate about science, one of the things about science that drew me to it is the fact it's about the discovery of knowledge. I believe that Africa, and especially Kenya, has all the resources that it needs to keep its people healthy, yet people are not enjoying the best health. One way that I believe I can solve that problem is by researching medicinal plants because I believe we have those resources we just need to find out the compounds in plants that we can utilize to keep ourselves healthy. Everything that we need to be healthy is provided to us by nature, we just have to tap through research and also by educating people on how to apply those principles and knowledge that we learned from research into being healthy. I envision a world where there is equality, quality education, improved health services for all, and good, effective and transformative leaders.
