Seed banks, what they are and their role in saving biodiversity and saving our food supply 1u1o5i
Two out of five plants are threatened or endangered. Biodiversity is suffering and many foods may disappear from our menu in the future. Seed banks, in addition to storing seeds of different species in case worse comes to worst, are used to develop more resistant varieties.

Gestión forestal sostenible: clave para preservar el futuro de los bosques-en 4w1i4o
Sustainable management of resources is essential to minimising the impact of climate change, and this must also apply to forests, whose health is of concern in view of the advance of deforestation. Specifically, the FAO states that forests should be harvested at a rate that maintains their biodiversity, productivity and regeneration capacity.

What are green cryptocurrencies and why are they important? 6w2h20
Cryptocurrency mining is a process that usually involves high energy consumption, due to the complex levels of computation required. In order to minimise the carbon footprint associated with the first digital currencies, alternative models with a low environmental impact have been developed: the so-called green cryptocurrencies.

What is water security and how is it threatened by climate change? 5v2l6z
Climate change is threatening food security all over the planet, and the same goes for water security. This concept can be defined as the capacity of a society to have enough adequate quality water available. It analyses the condition of surface water and subterranean aquifers and the use made of it with a territorial focus.

Ocean acidification: why does it happen and what are the consequences? 4k2g2p
The carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions we release into the atmosphere not only worsen air quality, but also have an impact on the health of the oceans. Specifically, they cause a phenomenon known as acidification, which reduces the pH of the water, modifying its chemical composition and seriously affecting marine organisms. Solutions include reducing the use of fossil fuels in favour of renewable sources.
Electric vehicle charging stations, keys to the future of sustainable mobility 5q102f
The paradigm shift in mobility, which advocates for electric vehicles that do not harm the environment, is driving the increasing spread of charging points. Thus, also known as electric charging stations are beginning to become an everyday reality in the landscape of cities and roads. Here we tell you how they work and the different types of charging they offer.
