Climate change is turning natural carbon sinks into carbon sources, worsening the global warming scenario. Traditionally, forests, soils, and oceans absorbed more CO₂ than they emitted. However, recent studies indicate these systems are becoming net emitters, intensifying the crisis and undermining efforts to limit temperature rise. In 2023, terrestrial carbon sinks, including forests and soils, […]

Mangroves, unique coastal ecosystems found in tropical and subtropical regions, serve as vital bio-shields against natural disasters. Their dense root systems stabilize shorelines, reduce erosion, and provide critical habitats for diverse marine life. In December 2024, The Bahamas announced a plan to refinance $300 million of its external debt to generate $120 million for marine

The escalating frequency and intensity of wildfires worldwide highlight the urgent need for sustainable forest management. Climate change, with rising temperatures and prolonged droughts, has created conditions conducive to devastating fires. To mitigate these risks, integrating traditional knowledge with modern strategies offers a promising solution. Indigenous fire management practices have shown success in reducing wildfire
