Drought: a natural but extreme condition under our control - It pays to go green!

Drought: a natural but extreme condition under our control

Po, the longest river in Italy, which measures about 650 km, is drying up and may disappear one day. Other regions of the globe, from Poland to the United States and Africa, are also experiencing similar phenomena. Drought is a natural yet extreme phenomenon that is increasing in severity due to climate change. We should consider what can be done to mitigate it and how we will adapt to its effects in the future. Every one of us, every day, has the opportunity to do so! By joining forces, we can be unstoppable!

Peatland protection is a dirty but necessary job! - It pays to go green!

Peatland protection is a dirty but necessary job!

All hands on deck! In the climate change mitigation efforts, every help will come in handy - from decision-makers and businesses to every one of us. Luckily, nature is our great ally in reducing the atmospheric carbon pool as it literally traps it ... in a marsh. Peatlands are, in fact, natural CO2e sinks. However, despite their powerful powers, they are sensitive ecosystems. Protecting peatlands should therefore be one of the priorities of pro-climate action across the globe. You can join the efforts with TerGo and UNEP/GRID-Warsaw Center.

Methane – Greenhouse gases - It pays to go green!

Methane – Greenhouse gases

When thinking of climate change measures, we most often associate them with reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Yes, CO2 has the most significant impact on climate change. However, other gases are also exacerbating global warming. This is especially true since the amount of methane reached a record high in the history of measurements last year. Find out what methane is and where its emissions come from.

Green building is the future?

There are more than 7.7 billion people on Earth. By 2050, we are expected to number almost 10 billion. Regardless of gender, race, origin or other features, everybody needs a place to live permanently or at least temporarily. Construction investments of all kinds are therefore vital for the environment. While striving to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, one should remember the opportunities offered by the green building.

Melting glaciers. Now, in East Antarctica! - It pays to go green!

Melting glaciers. Now, in East Antarctica!

It was twice the size of Warsaw or roughly the size of Rome or Manhattan. The Conger shelf glacier had been unstable for some time and eventually collapsed in mid-March. This marked the first such event ever observed in the eastern part of Antarctica. What is more, it happened during - by the region's standards - record high temperatures. Many factors indicate that climate warming may be the cause. For this reason, we must remind ourselves that, wherever we are, we all influence the melting of glaciers.

Paris Agreement: we need to act together! - It pays to go green!

Paris Agreement: we need to act together!

Climate is liberal: its changes affect everyone, regardless of status or citizenship. No country has the luxury of exclusive climate ownership. Systemic climate action, therefore, requires a coordinated effort. It is a long road, but the first steps have already been taken. One of the most essential joint commitments is the Paris Agreement. What does it concern, and what its objectives are? Read on!

Climate change: a game of Jenga or a gentle hill? - It pays to go green!

Climate change: a game of Jenga or a gentle hill?

There are two ways to think about climate change: as a game of Jenga, where one block will eventually topple the whole thing, or as a gentle hill, where things start off moving slowly and you don’t notice you’re moving too fast until it’s too late to stop without serious injury.

IPCC report: key findings - It pays to go green!

IPCC report: key findings

Reducing CO2 emissions is the key to climate change mitigation – this is one of the most important findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Its latest publication includes the summary for policymakers, Climate Change 2021: The Physical Science Basis. The entire report was published in August this year and is considered the largest update of knowledge in this field since 2014.
