In this episode of the “World We Want” podcast series, Christopher Grant Kirwan, multidisciplinary professional and educator, as well as author of the book Smart Cities and Artificial Intelligence, talks to Márcia Balisciano about urban development and smart cities.
This article supports SDG 15 through its study of the effects of crop rotation on soil microorganisms and concluded that crop rotation could enhance soil microbial biomass and bacterial diversity, and the effect of crop rotation on soil phosphatase and β-glucosidase activity.
Since 2011, the RELX Environmental Challenge has been awarded to projects that best demonstrate how they can provide sustainable access to safe water or sanitation. Poor access to water and sanitation has been a growing crisis, with around 800m people worldwide lacking access to clean water and 2bn people lacking access to basic sanitation. The 2022 winners have created innovative solutions to achieve SDG 6, access to clean water and sanitation for all.
This article supports SDG 11 introducing innovative practice for urban development projects.
