sustainable tomorrow

London

I have loved the beach since I was a kid. Most of my family holidays were spent at the beach and I now have a deep respect for it. However, the ocean is in great danger, suffering from humanity's massive consumption habits. Aside from the ocean, the whole planet ecosystem is on the verge of ruin. The impact of plastic pollution on marine animals and nature is very serious. The hard truth is, every plastic product we use ends up somewhere on this planet somehow. We need to play an active role for a better future. During my career, I have had the chance to travel the world, and I have seen people using plastic in many ways. From one side of the planet to the other, we are far from understanding the danger linked to single use plastic products. From bags to forks to straws, all should be replaced by sustainable products. I have now rethought my whole lifestyle, and truly hope that I’ll be able to make a change by sharing my beliefs as well as offering sustainable products to everyone for a sustainable tomorrow!

temple of art and music

The TAM is a concept that flourished from grief. Our founder, Sieng Van Tran, spent the 90s and 2000s in tech working with his brother, Tam, who was simultaneously studying internet law. “One of the areas Tam was passionate about was music and creating a fairer record label,” says Sieng. When the company was successfully sold to an investor and the brothers were out celebrating, Tam began feeling ill. Within weeks, his life was upended by a diagnosis of a brain-stem tumour. He was given a prognosis of three months. “I lived in the staff annexe at Guy’s Hospital so I could be with him,” says Sieng, “and while he never wanted to acknowledge or talk about not making it, one night he said that if he didn’t make it, I had to promise him something.” That promise was to launch an arts/music/entertainment venue/concept designed as a complete online and offline ethical ecosystem, encompassing live and recorded music, merchandise, visual art and dining. In its first incarnation, it was launched in 2020 as Theatrery, a mashup of ‘theatre’ and ‘eatery’, finding its ideal home in the sprawling Mercato Metropolitano, in Elephant & Castle, London.

Bees are fascinating insects that can recognise faces, switch between black-and-white and colour vision, and understand the mathematical concept of zero. They play a vital role in maintaining the diversity and integrity of our ecosystem, and we still have so much to learn about them. At Beesitter, we thought that we could not keep all this knowledge to ourselves and had to share it with everybody who is curious and mindful of the creatures surrounding us. In 2018, we took the challenge to educate and reach out to a broad audience about bees through our online courses and workshops. Beesitter was founded as a community interest company just to fit this purpose. We believe that anyone can care for bees in various ways, from supporting local beekeepers and populations of bees to becoming a responsible and considerate beekeeper. All our courses and teaching content are based on a scientific understanding of bees. Learning about bees is a fun way to acquire knowledge about biology, chemistry, and physics, and we take specific care in making these subjects understandable to anyone. We have hope that our action will raise awareness on the ecological and economical importance of bees and contribute to reversing their decline.

zero carbon dorset

London

Both Dorset and Bournemouth, Poole & Christchurch (BCP) Councils declared a climate and ecological emergency in 2019. These declarations are based on the scientific evidence that we have around a decade to take the required action to prevent greenhouse gas emissions exceeding levels which scientists agree will lead to irreversible and catastrophic climate change. Recent reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change [1] have identified that the consequences of allowing temperatures to rise by 2 degrees, rather than the 1.5 degree ambition set out in the Paris Climate Agreement, are stark; extreme weather events, rising sea levels, disruption to food supplies and potential societal instability, directly affecting 100’s of millions more people than at 1.5 degrees and indirectly threatening the whole of humanity. Continuing emissions at business-as-usual levels threatens our very existence. With emissions due to exceed the levels required to keep below a rise of 1.5 in the time detailed on the clock above, and with the limits to secure a better than 50% chance of staying within 2 degrees due to be exceeded in the time set out in the clock above, we must act now. Actions agreed at COP26 in Glasgow remain insufficient to address this issue. Aligned with this we are witnessing an ecological catastrophe where extinction rates are up to 1000 times the underlying natural rate [2] and the very ecosystem that supports human life is under threat.

We are honored to announce a NIS 50 million gift from the Kadas Family Charitable Fund to support the creation of an International Faculty Initiative of Global Climate Change, with an initial emphasis on marine and coastal ecology research. The largest one-time donation in the University’s history, the gift will be used to create a virtual community of scholars, spanning universities and research centers across the globe. This project, will begin with an initial focus on waterways in general, and on the Mediterranean, in particular. “The Eastern Mediterranean Sea hosts more than 17,000 marine species and contributes an estimated 7% to the world’s marine biodiversity. Today, this rich ecosystem has come under threat from climate change, pollution, over- fishing and coastal infrastructure projects,” explains Prof. Dan Tchernov, Scientific Director of the University’s Mediterranean Sea Research Center of Israel. “The generous gift from the Kadas Charitable Fund will be crucial in predicting the ongoing effects of environmental and climate change in the rapidly changing Eastern Mediterranean basin, with the ultimate aim of using this research to predict the impact of climate change on other waterways and coastal regions. A consortium of global universities and research centers, employing virtual technology, will offer online educational modules, and employ cutting edge technology to create virtual research platforms untethered by geographical location. Each and every one of the nodes in this venture will think local, but act globally.”
