I saw this diy home made from upcycled materials and it looks like the postapocalyptic solar punk version of a hobbit house, and I am genuinely in love.

Also, if you tip me on here or Ko-fi, at the end of the month I’ll send you a link to all of the articles I found but didn’t use each week - almost double the content! (I’m new to taking tips on here; if it doesn’t show me your username or if you have DM’s turned off, please send me a screenshot of your payment)
1. Three Endangered Asiatic Lion Cubs Born at London Zoo
Tumblr media
“The three cubs are a huge boost to the conservation breeding programme for Asiatic lions, which are now found only in the Gir Forest in Gujarat, India.”
2. United Nations Passes Groundbreaking Intersex Rights Resolution
Tumblr media

3. Proposal to delist Roanoke logperch
Tumblr media
“Based on a review of the best available science, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has determined that the Roanoke logperch, a large freshwater darter, is no longer at risk of extinction. […] When the Roanoke logperch was listed as endangered in 1989, it was found in only 14 streams. In the years since, Roanoke logperch surveys and habitat restoration have more than doubled the species range, with 31 occupied streams as of 2019.”
4. Fully-Accessible Theme Park Reopens Following Major Expansion
Tumblr media
“Following the $6.5 million overhaul, the park now offers [among other “ultra-accessible” attractions] a first-of-its-kind 4-seat zip line that can accommodate riders in wheelchairs as well as those who need extra restraints, respiratory equipment or other special gear.”
5. ‘The Javan tiger still exists’: DNA find may herald an extinct species’ comeback
Tumblr media
“A single strand of hair recovered from [a sighting] is a close genetic match to hair from a Javan tiger pelt from 1930 kept at a museum, [a new] study shows. “Through this research, we have determined that the Javan tiger still exists in the wild,” says Wirdateti, a government researcher and lead author of the study.”
6. Treehouse Village: Eco-housing and energy savings
Tumblr media
““The entire place is designed and built to meet the passive house standard, which is the most energy-efficient construction standard in the world,” says resident Wayne Groszko, co-owner of one of the units at Treehouse.”
7. 50 rare crocodiles released in Cambodia's tropical Cardamom Mountains
Tumblr media
“Cambodian conservationists have released 50 captive-bred juvenile Siamese crocodiles at a remote site in Cambodia as part of an ongoing programme to save the species from extinction.”
8. The Remarkable Growth of the Global Biochar Market: A Beacon of Environmental Progress
Tumblr media
“Biochar, a stable carbon form derived from organic materials like agricultural residues and forestry trimmings, is a pivotal solution in the fight against global warming. By capturing carbon in a stable form during biochar production, and with high technology readiness levels, biochar offers accessible and durable carbon dioxide removal.”
9. 'Seismic' changes set for [grouse shooting] industry as new Scottish law aims to tackle raptor persecution
Tumblr media
“Conservation scientists and campaigners believe that birds such as golden eagles and hen harriers are being killed to prevent them from preying on red grouse, the main target species of the shooting industry. […] Under the Wildlife Management and Muirburn Bill, the Scottish grouse industry will be regulated for the first time in its history.”
10. White House Awards $20 Billion to Nation’s First ‘Green Bank’ Network
Tumblr media
“At least 70 percent of the funds will go to disadvantaged communities, the administration said, while 20 percent will go to rural communities and more than 5 percent will go to tribal communities. […] The White House said that the new initiative will generate about $150 billion in clean energy and climate investments[…].”

The threat
To fight against climate change, builders, planners, designers, and architects urgently need to shift gears and implement sustainable designs and practices. Buildings, be it residential or commercial, are an alarmingly dominant source of almost 40% of all greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs), according to Architecture 2030, a prominent non-profit research organization in the US. Add the other infrastructure and activities, such as transportation, associated with buildings, and this number spikes. The United Nations has called for countries to achieve net-zero by 2050. In other words, any emissions in the air would need to be balanced by removing CO2.
The solution – design and build Green!
In light of the grave threat to the environment and subsequently to all forms of life on this planet, building green then becomes critical to our very existence, health, and well-being. Green buildings are about straddling the structure’s entire ecosystem – planning, design, construction, operations, and its end-of-life impact on the environment. This entails looking at options that save energy and water, do not emit harmful GHGs, and are recyclable or sustainable. When a structure does all of this while also retaining the creation of vegetated land areas, it reduces GHGs and thus aids in the fight against climate change. By incorporating all the above elements, you contribute to the UN 17-point charter on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) across many parameters which we will see in this article.

How to Plan Your Sustainable House Move
Planning a house move can consume many resources and leave an increased carbon footprint behind. If you are looking at reducing your impact on the world around you, a house move might seem like you are undoing all of the work you have put in so far to live more sustainably. While you might not be able to achieve a zero-emission house move, you can move sustainably to reduce this impact.
Tumblr media
Use eco-friendly packaging materials.
You can do several things to reduce the number of packaging materials you will need for a house move especially when you re trying to make it sustainable. Ensure that you purchase your products with recyclable packaging, and if that is not an option, try to reduce the number of packaging materials you use. For example, try to use paper wrap instead of cling film and cardboard boxes instead of plastic.
Another great alternative to plastic wrap is to use a reusable cloth bag for food storage instead and for protecting fragile items.

After you have finished with your donated items, you should try to recycle as much as possible. This helps reduce the amount of waste produced and can be disposed of at the end of its lifecycle will further leads to a sustainable house move. Recycling also helps reduce the number of carbon emissions caused by the processing and transportation of materials.
