The economy depends on nature: healthy soil, clean water, pollinators, forests and biodiversity. Protecting the environment isn’t separate from economic wellbeing, it helps sustain it. 🌍🌱
Let’s build a future where people, nature and livelihoods can thrive together.

Doomsday doesn't have to mean the end of the world overnight.
Climate change can look like failed harvests, disappearing water sources, extreme heat, floods, stronger storms, and communities struggling to recover.
The climate crisis is already here. What we do today can shape how difficult tomorrow becomes.
Protecting soil, water, forests, and biodiversity isn't just about nature. It's about protecting our future.

I really wish that more Canadians looked at Carney’s policies more closely that many of us seem to do. Instead, we continue to get distracted by the US president to the exclusion of all else…
“The government under Prime Minister Mark Carney has “repealed or weakened virtually every climate policy and regulation that Canada had developed in the last decade,” a former member of Canada’s Net-Zero Advisory Body told MPs.”

What if neighbours worked together to make solar, battery backup, and home electrification easier and more affordable?
I'm exploring a community-led model for Ottawa that focuses on transparency, resilience, and reducing costs through neighbourhood-scale adoption.
No sales pitches. No exclusive vendors. Just neighbours helping neighbours make informed decisions.

I am very proud of my newly bought solar power generator and I use it straightaway on my makeshift office space at the upper deck of the ship taking me to Jakarta. The sunset over the Java sea is, however, a big distraction for my overdue essay...

It's a very short boat ride the one from Singapore to Batam, Indonesia. But it's really a springboard from the globalised, motorised, and carbonised part of the world to the Global South. I have already travelled about 14,000km to come here without taking airplanes and I truly savour the crossing of this physical but most importantly cultural boundary between North and South.
The taxi that takes me to the embarkment to Jakarta travels through bumpy roads, which turn into dirt road at the very access to the Pelni (the Indonesian national ferry company) departure point. I am torn between accepting the offer of porters to carry my luggage or carrying it myself. It's little money for me and a lot of money for them. I opt for carrying it myself, as I am short of Indonesian cash and I perceive porters' requests as bordering extortion. I travel 3rd class, because I want to stay as close as possible to the travelling conditions of most travellers. I get a bed in one of the many sleeping halls provided on the ship. A mattress is provided, although it's better not to think of the last time it has been washed. I must say sleeping is hard. People talk loudly throughout the night and kids cry loud. However, I am so tired that I sleep tight. As usual, I am woken up at 4am by the call to the Islamic morning prayer.
