A tranquil aerial view of a rewetted peatland, where lush greenery meets still waters under a dramatic sky. Once drained, this restored ecosystem is now a thriving habitat and a key ally in climate mitigation. The mirrored clouds on the water’s surface contrast with ghostly tree stumps, symbolizing past exploitation and current hope.
It broke my heart to leave my Nam Doc Mai mango tree behind when I moved. One of the sweetest fiber-free mangos I have tasted. I hope the new home owner is taking care of and enjoying the fruits.
Expansive and serene, this image captures the rebirth of a once-drained peatland now restored to its natural hydrology. Rewetted peatlands like this play a vital role in climate protection, carbon storage, and biodiversity recovery. Pine trees frame the scene, while the mirrored sky and scattered wetland islands convey a sense of balance and renewal.

Elk, also known as moose in English are impressive animals that play an important role in the nature and culture of Lapland, Finland. Elk are the largest members of the deer family. Male elk bear large flat antlers. They eat a wide range of vegetation,/b> including twigs, leaves, buds of trees and shrubs, as well as aquatic plants in the summer months. Moose are solitary and only come together during the mating season in the fall. They are known for their long migrations in search of food, especially in winter when they seek out lower areas where food is more available. They are good swimmers and can travel long distances in the water in search of food or to move between islands and mainland. Moose are well adapted to the harsh winters of Lapland. They have thick fur that protects them from the cold, and their long legs help them move through deep snow. Moose also serve as prey for large predators such as bears and wolves, making them an important part of the food chain in Lapland. Elk are managed in Finland through regulated hunting to keep their populations in balance with available natural resources and to reduce damage to agricultural crops and forest plantations.
Elk are an iconic symbol of Lapland's wild nature and play an important role in maintaining the ecological balance in this northern region. Their presence contributes to the natural beauty and biodiversity of Lapland.
Elanden, ook bekend als moose in het Engels zijn indrukwekkende dieren die een belangrijke rol spelen in de natuur en cultuur van Lapland, Finland. Elanden zijn de grootste leden van de hertenfamilie. Mannelijke elanden dragen grote platte geweien. Ze eten een breed scala aan vegetatie, waaronder twijgen, bladeren, knoppen van bomen en struiken, evenals waterplanten in de zomermaanden. Elanden zijn solitair en komen alleen samen tijdens het paarseizoen in de herfst. Ze staan bekend om hun lange trektochten op zoek naar voedsel, vooral in de winter wanneer ze lagere gebieden opzoeken waar meer voedsel beschikbaar is. Ze zijn goede zwemmers en kunnen lange afstanden in het water afleggen op zoek naar voedsel of om zich te verplaatsen tussen eilanden en vasteland. Elanden zijn goed aangepast aan de strenge winters van Lapland. Ze hebben een dikke vacht die hen beschermt tegen de kou, en hun lange poten helpen hen om zich door diepe sneeuw te bewegen. Elanden dienen ook als prooidieren voor grote roofdieren zoals beren en wolven, en zijn daardoor een belangrijk onderdeel van de voedselketen in Lapland. Elanden worden in Finland beheerd door middel van gereguleerde jacht om hun populaties in evenwicht te houden met de beschikbare natuurlijke hulpbronnen en om schade aan landbouwgewassen en bosaanplantingen te verminderen. Elanden zijn een iconisch symbool van de wilde natuur van Lapland en spelen een belangrijke rol in het behoud van de ecologische balans in deze noordelijke regio. Hun aanwezigheid draagt bij aan de natuurlijke schoonheid en biodiversiteit van Lapland.

A Hopeful Summer's Whisper
In the lap of a warming globe, where CO2 blankets thickly lie,
Europe faces its looming trials under a changing sky.
Rains descend with might, where once a drizzle sufficed,
Floodwaters swell like sorrow in nature's tear-filled eyes.
Yet amidst these tempests and trials, hope dares to grow,
In the shy whisper of leaves, in every seed we sow.
Blooms dare to colour the grey with hues bold and bright,
Grasses dance in meadows, bathed in summer's light.
Floods challenge our resolve, test our will to mend,
But within our hearts, a naive faith that the strife will end.
Might the summer of twenty-four, not just bring heat's fierce wave,
But also cradle a season of growth, generous, long, and brave?
For in this era of fierce heat and floods, life resiliently clings,
To the promise of fruitful days, where every creature sings.
Humans, plants, and beasts alike dream under the same sun,
Of a 2024 summer, bountiful, benevolent, and won.
Haiku 1:
Summer storms unfurl,
Leaves whisper, "All will be well,"
Hope blooms 'neath the rain.
Haiku 2:
Warmth swells; rivers rise,
Yet sunlit petals promise,
Joyous days ahead.

Through the use of solar powered pumps part financed by AKRSP, water is brought up to the surface to irrigate land that is otherwise barren. This farmer is growing apricot trees amongst others.
Altit, a village located at the foot of the 900 year-old Altit Fort, had been partially deserted by its residents. Nearly a third of the homes had been abandoned, and new construction was using up valuable arable land. In an attempt to address this phenomenon and pre-empt the socio-economic consequences expected from a tourism boom, conservation efforts at Altit proceeded in reverse order: the village rehabilitation before the Fort.
As in Karimabad, the introduction of water and sanitation facilities has proven vital to the revitalisation of the traditional settlement.
The conservation strategy for Altit Fort developed in 2004 called for preservation “as found”, that is, basically as an empty shell, showing off the resilient traditional engineering techniques that have allowed for such structures to cope with tremors in a fairly active seismic zone. Most conservation works relate to mending structural defects, stabilising and repairing existing walls, replacing some roofs, treating wood decay and providing appropriate lighting.
Altit Fort is open to visitors, while its splendid undulating garden – a fairy tale orchard – is a welcoming haven of tranquillity and nature. The KhaBasi Café situated in the garden re-uses the Mir’s colonial era winter residence and serves local traditional dishes. Entrance fees are charged for both the Fort and the rehabilitated historic village, with a portion going to the Altit Town Management Society, which also collects fees for sanitation and water services from the community for operation and maintenance of these services.
Following its completion in 2010, Altit Fort was recognised with the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Award of Distinction in 2011.

An AKAH supported water supply scheme to ensure local residents have access to clean and safe water. The project was part paid by the community (30%) and then they pay a monthly fee for its upkeep.
This water supply scheme opened 2017 and brings water from a natural spring from the mountains to 67 households and 603 people. 5km of underground pipes bring clean drinking water to people’s homes. Before, people drank from irrigation channels which caused health problems such as diarrhoea, skin infections, eye infections and hepatitis. But now they are not experiencing any of those issues.
