Join the sustainable swrm
We’ve previously discussed the minimal footprint of space programs when comparing them to other carbon emission-intensive sectors, but still, space exploration has never been considered sustainable. So why is NASA still looking to the stars when Earth is at a tipping point?

But remember, rather than only continuing to plan and strategize our adaptation to climate change, we need to come together to minimize the changes to our climate and global warming. Innovation and systemic changes are vital to this. Research whether your local or national administrators have such plans in place and hold them accountable if they are not rigid enough–or if they don’t even have a plan–by using your vote.

We’re often asked our opinions on carbon offsetting. It’s a tough subject to talk about because people generally have a preconceived idea that this is a solution to Climate Change. We’ll cut you off at the pass – it’s not.

Since we’ve all been in lockdown, many of us have been wondering how our efforts to continue living within a sustainable world would fair once things started to open up. What would our challenges be due to
Read moreWhen we discuss climate change, most of our focus is on carbon dioxide or CO2 emissions. But today, we’re talking about methane, a greenhouse gas 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide. So, why don’t we hear more about it?

When we discuss climate change, most of our focus is on carbon dioxide or CO2 emissions. But why don’t we talk about other heat trapping gases such as Methane (CH4), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Nitrous Oxide (N2O)? The short answer is there is more CO2 in the atmosphere than any other greenhouse gas at around 80% of total emissions. But did you know, methane is over 80 times more potent than CO2?
