Due to the lack of urban drainage systems, many urban centres in the DRC suffer from severe erosion, typified by numerous and fast expanding gully heads.
Fast urban growth has been substantially accelerated by conflict-induced population displacements and rural migration accentuated by the economic collapse of the countryside. Due to chaotic and uncontrolled urban growth, vast informal settlements often develop into degradation hotspots, characterized by severe gullies, poor sanitation, erosion and substantial peri-urban deforestation, and highly vulnerable to disasters.
Addressing environmental problems in urban centres is one of the key challenges facing the DRC.

Érosion majeure, Kananga, Kaisai Occidental, RDC
En raison du manque de systèmes de drainage, de nombreux centres urbains en RDC souffrent d'une importante érosion, comme en témoigne l'augmentation du nombre de ravins.
La croissance urbaine s'est fortement accélérée suite aux déplacements de populations dus aux conflits et à l'exode rural, un phénomène accentué par l'effondrement de l'économie dans les campagnes. En raison de l'urbanisation chaotique et incontrôlée, de vastes installations informelles deviennent souvent les lieux les plus touchés par la dégradation environnementale. Caractérisés par de profonds ravinements, le manque d'assainissement, l'érosion et un important déboisement péri-urbain, ils deviennent donc particulièrement vulnérables aux catastrophes naturelles.
La résolution des problématiques environnementales dans les centres urbains est en somme l'un des défis clés auxquels est confrontée la RDC.

The Chesapeake Executive Council meets at the Brock Environmental Center in Virginia Beach, Va., on Oct. 1, 2021. Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam served as chair, with Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, Diana Esher of the Environmental Protection Agency and Chesapeake Bay Commission Chair David Bulova gave remarks and signed a climate directive. Council members took a boat on the Lynnhaven River to hear speakers Imani Black of Minorities in Aquaculture speak, as well as Chris Moore and Andrew Button of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. Back on land, students from the Chesapeake Bay Foundation's environmental education programs gave instruction to the council on climate change and environmental issues impacting the Bay.

Inspired by the traditional all-night concerts along India’s Ganges River, Sun to Stars evokes the traditional durbar and bethak-style concerts where performers and audiences interact in an informal setting to create an intimate artistic experience. With a backdrop defined by both natural and urban elements, the performers present work that grapples with the environment, be it through mythological folktales or a particular raga connected to nature.
The Sun to Stars festival is solar-powered by the energy collected by the photovoltaic panels on the Solar 1 roof. The event also features a market place that includes regional South Asian cuisine from local chefs, Indian style seating with floor rugs and cushions, and information about important local South Asian and environmental nonprofit organizations.

Dutch Gap Conservation Area is seen in Chesterfield County, Va., on Aug. 12, 2019. The area protects 810 acres of woods, wetlands and wildlife bordering the James River, and in 2017 a boardwalk for hiking and viewing, as well as a paddle craft launch were installed. The Audubon Society names Dutch Gap one of the top birding sites in Virginia. Home to a large heron rookery, it attracts bald eagles and other hard-to-find species.

"Foyle's War"
The Hide
It is 1940 and Britain stands alone against the might of Nazi Germany across the continent. The terrors of nightly bombing raids are only matched by the fear and hysteria of the population at the prospect of the seemingly inevitable German invasion. It is in this environment that Chief Inspector Christopher Foyle, of the Hastings Police on the south coast of England, works. Denied a transfer to the war effort, Foyle is nonetheless forced to confront the darkest acts of humanity on a daily basis. With his official driver, Sam, and his subordinate, Paul Milner, Foyle investigates murders, looting and theft, crimes of opportunism, crimes of war, crimes of passion and crimes of greed--because crime isn't stopped because of warfare.

The Cartagena protocol on biosafety, a supplement to the convention on biological diversity, has strong support in Africa, with a majority of the countries as signatories. In addition, several countries have, in the past, rejected aid (especially unmilled grains) in food imports with concerns for national biosafety. South Africa is so far the only country that is seeing wide-spread use of genetically modified crops.
