  • How drones and AI are changing the way we fight wildfires

    The U.S. Forest Service's drone program has rapidly scaled from 734 flights in 2019 to over 17,000 in 2024, enabling safer and more efficient wildfire management by replacing dangerous pilot reconnaissance missions with unmanned thermal imaging that can detect hotspots and guide ground crews more precisely.

  • One Tree at a Time

    Moldova's National Reforestation Project, launched in 2023 with a €739 million budget, has planted over 10,000 hectares of new forest (36+ million trees) with a 67% survival rate, demonstrating early success in restoring degraded land and supporting rural communities, though it's currently achieving only half of its annual planting targets due to personnel shortages, supply chain issues, and weather challenges.

  • Climate change tests the resilience of people and desert-adapted wildlife in Namibia

    Community-Based Natural Resource Management (CBNRM) in Namibia gives rural communities the rights to manage and profit from wildlife through organized conservancies, which has dramatically recovered wildlife populations (like elephants growing from 7,000 to 26,000) while providing economic incentives that motivate communities to protect rather than poach animals, even during severe droughts.

  • City food forests offer a chance to experience nature — and eat it

    In some cities, empty urban lots transformed into multilayered "food forests" that mimic natural ecosystems are providing free, accessible fresh produce to city residents through strategically designed edible plantings that feature native and adapted fruit trees, nut trees, and berry bushes.

  • الزراعة الحراجية في تونس.. حل مستدام لمواجهة التصحر وتدهور الموارد الطبيعية

    تساهم الزراعة الحراجية في تونس في مواجهة التصحر وتقليل فقد المياه وتعزيز التنوع البيولوجي. يتم تطبيقها عبر دمج زراعة الأشجار المقاومة للجفاف مع المحاصيل الزراعية، مما يقلل التبخر بنسب تتراوح من 30 إلى 50% عبر توفير الظل الجزئي للمحاصيل، كما تتحول أوراق الأشجار المتساقطة بعد تحللها إلى مادة عضوية تغذي التربة، وتقلل الأشجار من زحف الرمال وتدهور الأراضي الزراعية، وتعيد الموائل الطبيعية للطيور والحشرات.

  • الشمس تروي ظمأ ديالي وتعيد الأمل لمزارعيها

    اعتماد المزارعين في ديالي في العراق على الطاقة المتجددة ساعدهم على تجاوز أزمة انقطاع الكهرباء وخفض تكاليف الري، وانعاش الإنتاج الزراعي. قام المزارعون بتركيب أنظمة ري تعمل بالطاقة الشمسية حيث تولد الألواح الكهربائية الطاقة اللازمة للتشغيل، مما يقلل من قيمة فواتير الكهرباء، ويساهم في تحسين الدخل، علاوة على كونها أقل تلويثا للهواء وأكثر استدامة.

  • As drought, climate change pressure El Paso water supply, farmers innovate to sustain orchards in one of nation's biggest pecan-growing hubs

    El Paso pecan farmers are implementing innovative water conservation techniques—including cover crops, polymer soil treatments, and improved tillage practices—that are showing promising results in reducing water usage and salt buildup, with cover crops alone reducing weed populations by 80-90% while creating cooler, more moisture-retentive soil conditions that help orchards survive in increasingly drought-prone conditions.

  • The 'frying pan of Spain' shows how cities can deal with extreme heat

    Seville has implemented three innovative water-based cooling solutions—ancient Persian qanat technology, adiabatic cooling systems in 450+ schools, and urban evapotranspiration projects—that collectively reduce temperatures by 6-12°C in public spaces and buildings while using minimal energy and attracting international attention as replicable models for heat adaptation.
