MODERN HISTORY

2-The Legacy of Wangari Maathai and The Green Belt Movement.

The Green Belt Movement (GBM) Foundation was founded by Professor Wangari Maathai in 1977 to address the needs of rural women in Kenya. Its focus on water conservation and tree planting grew into a global movement.

The Green Belt Movement (GBM) Foundation, founded by Professor Wangari Maathai in 1977, was born in response to the needs of rural women in Kenya. Focusing on water conservation and reforestation, the GBM empowered women to grow trees, restore land, store water, and secure food and fuel, thus addressing the scarcity of natural resources. As its work progressed, the WBG discovered deeper problems of disempowerment and disenfranchisement in communities, leading to the promotion of civic and environmental education.

The Movement also became involved in advocating for democracy and fighting environmental degradation, expanding its influence internationally and collaborating with global conservation and sustainability initiatives. The legacy of Professor Maathai and the WBG is a testament to the power of community action in water conservation and social transformation.

In conclusion, The Green Belt Movement and Professor Maathai's vision continue to be a testament to the power of community organizing and the idea that a community planting trees can make a difference. Her legacy persists in the struggle for environmental conservation and also water, democracy and community empowerment, just as Wangari envisioned.

Melting ice caps may not shut down ocean current

Most simulations of our climate's future may be overly sensitive to Arctic ice melt as a cause of abrupt changes in ocean circulation, according to new research led by scientists at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.

Mother Earth (and the Sun) have got this. All we have to do is not interfere and stop polluting.

Minoan bathtub - unknown date

"The Minoans were a great Bronze Age civilization that peaked during the second millennium B.C. on Crete. They had built multistory complexes, now referred to as “palaces,” which were actually distribution centers for large quantities of goods such as olive oil, wine, and grains. The platial architecture featured colonnaded courtyards, sliding doors, and external staircases. The monumental stone buildings were braced with wood beams.  Water technologies included running water within the palaces and other settlements, drainage systems, piping systems, rainwater harvesting, and other technologies."
