Geothermal energy, despite lower carbon emissions than coal, is not benign. Projects like Nevada's proposed Baltazor site highlight significant environmental and social costs. Geothermal development leads to habitat destruction (e.g., in Kenya and for Nevada's Dixie Valley toad) and violent evictions of indigenous communities.

Drilling releases toxic elements like mercury, arsenic, and boron into groundwater. Facilities also cause air pollution, including sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, contributing to acid rain and health issues, as seen in Iceland. Moreover, "enhanced geothermal systems" (EGS) utilize fracking technology, injecting high-pressure slurries that can poison groundwater and induce earthquakes, mirroring problems in the oil and gas industry.

Cultural neuroscience explores food's profound impact on brain function, emotions, and human identity. An international team investigates how to revolutionize food systems to save the planet while preserving our cultural and emotional essence. This crucial challenge determines humanity's future, with cultural neuroscience offering unprecedented insights into our relationship with nature through food.

The team features Dhyana Menon, who extracts neuro-scientific findings from multisensory food experiences; Golnoosh Mahdavi, Director of Innovation, guiding research on food, emotions, and culture; and Mario Ubiali, CEO of Thimus, an entrepreneur spearheading new visions.

A circular economy for steel, cement, aluminum, plastics, and food could eliminate 9.3 billion tonnes of CO2 equivalent annually by 2050, matching all current transport emissions. Founder Dame

A circular economy for steel, cement, aluminum, plastics, and food could eliminate 9.3 billion tonnes of CO2 equivalent annually by 2050, matching all current transport emissions. Founder Dame Ellen MacArthur explains its crucial role in addressing climate change and building a resilient economy independent of finite resources.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, accelerates the transition to a circular economy through business, learning, insights, and communications.

Mixed waste disposal is a global challenge, extending even to space junk. This talk presents a formula for community transformation, emphasizing personal responsibility as both the cause and solution to environmental issues.

When Chennai faced 5000 tons of daily garbage, social entrepreneur Mr. Natarajan founded NAMMA OORU. This initiative, with like-minded individuals, educates citizens on waste segregation and composting. His formula, "Earth Ethics - Role of Youth," offers a valuable perspective on tackling waste. This TEDx talk provides further insights. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.

Human objects in space are creating dangerous clutter. MIT Assistant Professor Danielle Wood advocates for sustainable space technology, stressing the need to respect both people and the environment in future missions. This approach is crucial for managing the "industrial waste" accumulating beyond Earth.

One promising solution involves a wax-based fuel for satellites, made from beeswax and candle wax. This less toxic and more affordable alternative would help bring objects closer to Earth for safe deorbiting and destruction, offering a sustainable way to address space debris.
