Breaking news: UN collabs with Marvel to create #ozoneheros

-

To keep the energy up, and inspire the next generation of supporters for the coming challenge, the Ozone Secretariat, in partnership with Marvel Comics, launched an Ozone Heroes campaign – reminding people that our human qualities are what equip us to solve the world’s most pressing problems and that we are all #OzoneHeroes. Stan Lee in collaboration with The United Nations created an audience journey that follows Iron Man and the Guardians of the Galaxy in a Marvel-produced comic as they discover humans are the superheroes who solved the global issue of ozone depletion. Marvel comics had also put out special Guardians of the Galaxy edition titled: Guardians of the Galaxy, Ozone Heroes. The Montreal Protocol is as necessary today as it was in the 1980s, not just for the ozone layer but also as a part of the global efforts to halt climate change.

Sustainability is a term we see used around a lot these days; we often see it in the marketing campaigns of several brands, companies talking about how their products are sustainable or environmentalists discussing sustainability as a crucial must to save our planet. The term holds significant value but is tossed around at a magnitude far lower than what it holds.   To put it succinctly, sustainability or a sustainable process is one where the implication or rather the ramification is the maintenance of the natural resource at an optimum level. If we take Petrol or Oil into consideration, the rate at which we mine them is far greater than the rate at which they are repleted. When we see that various brands are implementing strategies to become more sustainable, they either switch to a more renewable source or change the manufacturing process so that the consequence is the minimum depletion of the natural resource employed.   The exploitation of natural resources so far has had...

Animals around the world are threatened with extinction in different ways but there is still hope to save those species who are at the brink of vanishing forever. Since the 1960s, various organisations, governments and individual conservationists have made several efforts to stop human practices that harm such species and have taken great measures to increase the population of species that have sparse inhabitants.   Governments across the globe have established several acts and wildlife sanctuaries to ascertain the safety and preservation of these varied species. The following are five animals which were once critically endangered but then saved by the aforementioned efforts :   Humpback Whale  - This mammal, popularly known as the singing whale, went almost extinct in the 1960s, a period in which it was commercially hunted.
