Global Climate Strike for Future 🧑‍🎓

 As climate change gets worse, more and more people are aware of the seriousness. Last year, people, especially teenagers, worked hard for the change in the climate which is occured due to people’s activities. Starting from 2018, from 180 countries, students held protests for the change and direct behavior from leaders of the countries. Teenagers placed at the first line and with the ‘Fridays for Future’ slogan, they announced and shared the seriousness of the climate change in that year. That was the biggest world climate demonstration. It changed people’s perspective from recognition of climate change. Moreover, the leaders also realized the seriousness and participated with this flow. They shared the opinions to solve the causes and damages from climate change. 


This strike is from the Sweden climate activist. Greta Thunberg started the global climate strike in 2018 alone. He started lonely, however it became bigger and bigger as the supporters became large. They also spread into various countries. They directly requested COP26 to behave strongly. With this flow, the 420 countries in Germany started the strike later, and it made the boom in the global climate strike. 


Following this flow, Korean teenagers also participated in this demonstration. In September, on German day, Korean students discussed the strike and the specific plans for it. They formed a climate citizen’s council to prepare it. They mainly requested new communication methods for new generations. I also realized the seriousness, but I didn’t know the direct effects of the climate change that I’ll get later. After the strike and protest, I firmly realized the seriousness and the need for leaders to behave quickly and prettily.

Renewable Age 🌊

     Our natural resources are limited in the world, and they cannot be reproduced. Then where do we use coal energy in our real lives? Coal is a kind of rock with black surface which contains a high amount of carbon and hydrocarbons. Usually coal is found under the surface of the ground or the very deep soil layers of ocean. We usually use coal when we use electricity and drive the car. There are so many examples in our real lives to use coal, and even we can’t know or remember all the situations that we use it.      However, unlike natural resources, renewable energy is not limited as we can produce them by using material from nature such as sunlight, wind, water, ocean, bioenergy and so on. There are a few types of renewable energy. Solar energy Wind energy Hydro energy Tidal energy Geothermal energy Biomass energy Each picture shows the devices that help creation of each energy type, from solar energy to biomass energy in the order. 🌉🌊🌊🌊 (from Googl...

The Navdanya Movement 🌱

  Hyewon Lee Topic: The Navdanya Movement Date: 2021/12/09 The Navdanya movement was initiated in India to protect biodiversity and to promote the seed-saving movement around the world. It was founded by woman environmentalist Dr. Vandana Shiva as she wanted to guarantee seed freedom and food sovereignty for small farmers. This movement has progressed for about 30 years and was first initiated due to the sudden outbreak of the GMO crisis, which involves various health issues such as toxicity and allergenicity. The goal of the Navdanya movement is to ensure a new society in which economic justice and ecological responsibilities exist among consumers and farmers. Arising from this movement, Navdanya International was established in Italy in 2011 to demonstrate such qualities at an international level. One of its promotions refers to the Global Movement for Seed Freedom, which was launched to create unity among diverse organizations that have shown interest in saving seeds. As a matte...
