Our previous categories Mangrove Forum, Plastic Initiative, Climate Science, and Green Academies played vital roles and they now find new homes under our six focus areas: Climate, Biodiversity, Water, Energy, Community, and Sustainability.

  • Mangrove Forum, now nestled within Biodiversity, supports the conservation, restoration and scientific research of mangrove ecosystems through UNESCO-designated sites.
  • The Plastic Initiative, which aims at mobilizing communities to find solutions and take action to solve plastic waste-management issues can be found under the banner of the Sustainability focus area
  • Climate action remains central to our mission, therefore climate science finds its new home within Climate, where we empower communities to understand and build resilience.
  • Green Academies, the spirit of hands-on sustainability education lives on in the Community focus area, where we support initiatives that foster environmental awareness and action among young people.

    “Breathing; something that we do without thinking. Our lungs take up such a huge part of the body, protected by a strong rib cage, much like the forests of the world, mangroves and trees. The difference is, they don’t have a strong means of protection. The lungs of Planet Earth are being gravely threatened and Mother Nature is crying for help. If we do not come to her aid, the simple act of breathing good air may no longer be a luxury we can enjoy without thinking.”

    “To enable competency-based discussions, it is important to speak with the same vocabulary and science-based knowledge when addressing climate issues. This is, unfortunately, frequently not the case. Climate literacy needs a science-based foundation.”

    “Greenhouse gas emissions keep growing. Global temperatures keep rising. And our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate chaos irreversible. We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator.”
