Sustainability

Reduce | Reuse | Recycle | Protect | Sustain

Picture
Sustainability means using Earth's natural resources in a way that we could keep doing
it for a long, long time. We can be more sustainable by reducing our use of natural resources and by protecting those resources from over-use or extinction.

Sustainability means meeting our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. In addition to natural resources, we also need social and economic resources.
​Sustainability is not just environmental-ism.

Sustainable development is a way for people to use resources without the resources running out. The term used by the Brundtland Commission defined it as development with sustainability that "meets the needs of the present and also compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."

Learn about some amazing inventions, discoveries and explorations in Sustainability:

Picture
Each and every day, girls and women across the world are spending a staggering 200 million hour collecting and carrying water from often far away locations to their homes and families. The Hippo Water Roller which can contain up to 90 liters of water is either pushed or pulled along the roads. Its invention has transformed the living conditions and over all health of so many people.

Picture
As we all know, the desert can get really, really, really hot and food perishes within minutes in the baking sun. Considering that over one billion people living in deserts around the world all need to eat fresh produce like the rest of us, a Nigerian teacher developed a portable, sustainable and non-electrical pot-in-pot system which refrigerates the food with the help of water and clay.   

Picture
Doctors around the world are doing an incredible job, keeping us all as healthy and well as they possibly can. Sometimes though their work due to lack of electricity, facilities, hospital space or resources can be challenging and the invention of the Q-POC which gives a diagnosis within less than 30 minutes improves their work significantly. Very small in space and battery operated, it is sustainable and portable, revolutionary to the medical market.

Picture
Situated high up in northern Scandinavia, Iceland certainly is not lacking in wind power, so it came natural for native sustainability and ecological company Janulus to seek the possibilities of harnessing the power of the Northern winds as efficiently as possible. Trinity, the portable wind turbine will charge any USB powered tool/technology within minutes and is usable in winds as low as 2km/hr. 

Picture
It's not big, it's not huge, it's not enormous, it's absolutely GIGANTIC!! And, it's fully electrical... How is that possible? This massive truck which can hold up to 65 tons of goods when fully loaded produces its own energy through applying the breaks when going down hill (as one would!), then use that energy for going back up the hill, so it rarely needs to be recharged, making it even more sustainable.  

Picture
Motivated by the hardships of the Kalinga tribe in her native Philippines living high up in the remote and very dark mountains, engineer Aisa and her brother invented a sustainable, cost effective and much less dangerous way than traditional Kerosene lamps to light their paths and homes. Using simple salt water, which is available nearly anywhere on earth, metal and a battery, the light can finally shine bright.  


"There Is No Such Thing As Throwing Something Away.
​It Must Go Somewhere..."
Talk to your school friends, think about all the things you can do together to reduce waste in your school. Design a project or make a video to show us what you have chosen to do.
