bangladeshi hatsune miku 🇧🇩

[theinconvenientlifestyle]

Samir needs people who will adopt his campaign as their own - people who can share it and get it the attention it needs.

Samir is in need of medical care and his family is being starved. 🆘

The campaign is no.428 on the @gazavetters list.

Donate if you are able of course but please if you have a few moments each day to help push his campaign or be able to get the family in contact with a charity please do get in contact with his dad on @samirahmed125

Samir's father is desperate to help his children but he can't do it alone - please if you have a couple of moments to spare each day spread his campaign to the world.

I am no expert in fundraising or in writing but if I can write a few words and share these campaigns anyone can do the same.

As always keep up the boycott (bds) and keep hope alive for the wellbeing of the Palestinians.

1. A banana byproduct transforms farm waste into profits in Bangladesh

“Banana fiber, extracted from post-harvest stems, is emerging as a versatile biodegradable material that can be used to manufacture textiles, blended yarns and handicrafts. […] Md Hafijul Islam, owner of New Bhai Bhai Engineering Workshop in Gazipur, [employs craftspeople and sells the machines used for processing banana fiber….] “But I don’t just sell the machines; I provide training and a 10-year buy-back agreement. I tell my entrepreneurs they can sell their fiber back to me for the next decade.””

2. 'Mammal ledges' built beneath new dual carriageway

“Ledges have been installed in small drainage tunnels beneath a road improvement project to provide safe passage for small animals. […] National Highways said they created "dry pathways that enable wildlife to pass safely underneath the road without entering the water". […] He added that they had a deep understanding of the local environment as a result of extensive survey work.”

3. Illinois Solar for All is, at last, taking off

“[…]Illinois Solar for All [is] a state program to make the clean energy source accessible to households, nonprofits, and public facilities in lower-income communities and areas facing environmental injustice. Participants receive at least half the value of the energy generated by their solar array, with no [or low] up-front costs[….] During the initiative’s last cycle, from June 2024 to May 2025, more projects were approved than in its first five years combined[….]”

4. Fridge-free tetanus-diphtheria vaccine shows promise of reaching millions worldwide

“Fridge-free vaccines […] would improve access in more isolated communities and cut the environmental impact by reducing energy use and emissions. […] “Keeping vaccines cold from the factory to the patient is one of the biggest challenges facing immunization programs worldwide. Our study suggests that this [reformulated] vaccine can remain safe and effective without refrigeration.””

5. Vanished Hornbill Species is Breeding Again Among the Old Trees After 60 Years

“[… Gir National Park] hadn’t seen a nesting grey hornbill pair since the 1960s. But after a strategic reintroduction program was initiated in 2021, these large social birds now number 40-strong and counting. […] Indian conservationists describe the Indian grey hornbill as one of the sub-continent’s indicator species, one which owes its flourishing to the flourishing landscape[….]”
