Rain gardens, curb cutouts, permeable pavement and other green infrastructure practices capture and filter stormwater runoff pollution in the Rock Creek watershed in Washington, D.C., on July 15, 2024. The Rock Creek Green Infrastructure Project A, B and C have seen green infrastructure installed in target areas of the Rock Creek sewershed since 2018 to reduce pollution reaching the waterway. The projects are part of DC Water's Clean Rivers GI Projects program. (Photo by Rhiannon Johnston/Chesapeake Bay Program)

At Magic Years we recognize the significance of the environment as the "third teacher". www.magicyears.ac.th/teaching-learning/educational-belief...
On my walk from the subway to school, I shot the plastic litter in the street. I'm astounded at how much is there. The shots take us inside the cafeteria where I got a few plastic bags that will soon become garbage, but hopefully not litter.

Boston Mayor Janey talks with residents.
Boston Mayor Janey, Chief of Environment, Energy and Open Space Reverend Mariama White-Hammond, and GreenRoots advocate Noemy Rodriguez, held a press conference to urge Eversource to justify or cancel its proposed electrical substation in East Boston. “As mayor of Boston, I will not remain silent when the people of East Boston are crying out,” said Mayor Janey. “From what I have seen, the substation plan is based on flawed projections and flawed priorities. I urge Eversource to prioritize environmental equity and the wellbeing of East Boston residents over their profits.” In February 2021, the Massachusetts Energy Facilities Siting Board gave its final approval for an electrical substation near Chelsea Creek in East Boston. Eversource Energy made the initial proposal in 2013, stating the facility was necessary to support the capacity of a substation in Chelsea. Eversource’s initial estimates for projected energy demand have not been met and new, adjusted data has not been shared publicly. Community members have expressed opposition over the proposal, due to concerns about public safety and environmental justice. The proposed location for the substation is adjacent to City Yards, a highly utilized public park where children play, which could lead to potential safety hazards. Climate change and rapid sea-level rise exacerbate the potential danger of having an electrical substation on the waterfront. The citing of this substation in an environmental justice community already facing several environmental hazards, combined with the exposure to children and the risk of flooding, is unsafe.

Philadelphia
Development in Philly is out of control, worsening conditions for working class people & the environment. Hundreds of community activists took to the streets to set the tone for Philly's 2023 election: anyone running for mayor or city council better have policy solutions for ensuring long-term, working class residents have a place in this city and that Philly is truly tackling and prepared for the climate crisis.
The march was organized by community groups fighting for land justice across our city, including Philly Thrive, Sunrise Movement, VietLead, Save UCTownhomes, Save the Meadows, Cobbs Creek EJ, and more!

During our Environment Unit we tested the water tolerance of 4 different types of plant seeds - barley, radish, corn and pea.
We planted 3 seeds of each plant into 4 containers. Everything was kept the same except we add different amounts of water to each container. One container had no water, and contained dry soil, one container we added moist soil but no water. We added 40mls of water to one container and 80mls of water to the last container. We also had one class container labeled swamp - it had 120ml of water added to it. All containers were sealed in zip-lock bags.
UNEP has provided remote and real-time advice to the Government of Nepal, international agencies, and the UN system on dealing with the environmental issues linked to the the earthquake. UNEP also actively participated in a Post Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) completed in June 2015.
In order to ensure that environmental issues are addressed during the reconstruction process, UNEP is working closely with the World Wildlife Fund for Nature on a rapid environmental assessment to inform the recovery process. In addition, UNEP has also facilitated the establishment of a coalition between WWF, International Union for Conservation of Nature and the Kathmandu-based International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), with the objectives of promoting good environmental management principles and promoting healthy ecosystems in the reconstruction progress.

Arankele Monastery’s sylvan environment and ruins of bathing ponds gives the impression it was once a pleasure park. Arankele, on the contrary, was a 6th century cave hermitage up a forested hillside. The densely wooded terrain crowded with huge hardwood trees are interspersed by the openings and clearings created by the on-going process of clearing scattered debris to unearth the ruins and re erecting the fallen ruins.
To mark World Environment Day, the British High Commission New Delhi hosted a Chevening alumni conference on ‘Environment and Sustainability’, Friday 3 June 2016. The Chevening Alumni India Association was also launched at the event. Follow us on Twitter @UKinIndia.
another one :)
Basically wanted to tell that whatever you give... get the same in return!
Not sure if using the official Environment Canada's logo was a good idea but I wanted to give it a professional look. ;)

These few pictures are from a photo assignment where we had to meet someone on the street who was selling something and take photos that showed them in their environment. I happened to find some men selling luggage, though they were making tea at the time.
English ivy grows densely on the forest floor inside the Piney Branch-Ingleside Mini-Oasis in the Mt. Pleasant neighborhood of Northwest Washington, D.C., on July 17, 2024. Established by Rock Creek Conservancy, the site has a series of official and social trails that make it a popular location for local Rock Creek hikers and walkers. The Piney Branch-Ingleside Mini-Oasis falls in a southern section of Piney Branch Park, and is bordered on the south by an alley just off of Ingleside Terrace NW and Bancroft Elementary School, Piney Branch Parkway to the North, Mt. Pleasant St NW to the East, and a staircase entering Rock Creek Park off of the Ingleside Alley to the West. (Photo by Rhiannon Johnston/Chesapeake Bay Program)
