  • Green New Deal Needs To Include Agriculture Technology

    When policymakers talk about “green jobs,” they tend to default to examples in solar power, wind and other sources of renewable energy—or perhaps manufacturing and supply chain management. They’re less likely to talk about agriculture.

  • Go green or go down the tubes, car exporters warned

    The South African automobile industry could be faced with exporting 80% less - thereby eliminating half the jobs it provides - if local manufacturers don't get with the global programme and go green.

  • Meat accounts for nearly 60% of all greenhouse gases from food production, study finds

    The global production of food is responsible for a third of all planet-heating gases emitted by human activity, with the use of animals for meat causing twice the pollution of producing plant-based foods, a major new study has found.

  • A hydrogen economy: Green is the new black

    Solar panels, wind turbines and lithium-ion batteries are setting the world on course towards a clean energy future.

  • Green Projects for Farming and Agriculture

    We are ready to receive your GREEN Project and let our sponsors support you with Finance.

  • Going hungry or going green? A critical look at the ‘Green Revolution’ project in Africa

    Since the development of “miracle wheat” in 1954 by Norman Borlaug, the way in which international organisations support and invest in agriculture has changed dramatically.

  • Going organic might be fashionably green, but it won’t feed the world

    A global food crisis is looming, so policymakers everywhere need to think hard about how to make food cheaper and more plentiful.

  • Going Green and Food security

    Since the development of “miracle wheat” in 1954 by Norman Borlaug, the way in which international organisations support and invest in agriculture has changed dramatically.

  • Why China Is Investing in Africa's Green Energy Future

    A wind farm in Namibia and a floating solar farm on Zimbabwe's massive Kariba Dam are among the new green energy projects Chinese companies are looking at investing in this year after Beijing pledged to help African countries address their energy problems with renewable sources rather than fossil fuels.

  • The economic impact of EU’s Green Deal on farmers in Eastern Africa

    The European Commission is adopting intermediate proposals in its international climate policy as outlined in the European Green Deal.

  • Are alternative proteins good for you?

    It is well known that alternative proteins can carry sustainable and ethical advantages over meat, but are we sacrificing our health for the planet’s?

  • World’s beaches are changing because of climate change - green thinking is needed to save them

    Coastlines – the interface between land and sea – lie at the frontline in the battle against climate change impacts.

  • Can Africa grasp its green-powered potential?

    No continent has been hit harder by climate change than Africa, and yet none has more potential for a future centered on green energy, a top expert has told AFP in an interview.

  • The Green Revolution is a warning, not a blueprint for feeding a hungry planet

    Feeding a growing world population has been a serious concern for decades, but today there are new causes for alarm. Floods, heat waves and other weather extremes are making agriculture increasingly precarious, especially in the Global South.

  • Organic Fertilizers and the Future of Eco-Conscious Agriculture

    The movement towards organic farming is not merely a trend but a revival of the intrinsic relationship between nature and agriculture.

  • How the world can avoid millions going hungry when supply chains collapse

    Millions more people will face hunger in the coming months if the conflict in the Middle East is not resolved soon, the UN has warned. The price of energy, which instantly affects the cost of producing and transporting food, has risen sharply due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

  • Greenwashing Africa’s “green” metals

    According to the World Bank, the production of critical minerals essential for renewable energy technologies, such as solar panels, wind turbines, and electric vehicles, is poised to increase by up to 500% by 2050.

  • South Africa holds greatest potential for green energy jobs

    More than three million new direct green jobs, driven largely by solar energy projects, have been forecast for Africa by 2030.

  • Do We Need Another Green Revolution?

    The Green Revolution got off to a rocky start. In the fall of 1944, Norman Borlaug, who would become known as the revolution’s father, moved to Mexico to set up a plant-breeding program. Right away, he came down with a stomach crud. It was, he would later tell an interviewer, “the usual tourist thing,” except that it lasted for weeks.

  • Greener and Cheaper: How Zinc Could Change Farming Forever

    Scientists have discovered a novel zinc sensor protein, FUN, that acts as a master regulator in this process—helping plants interpret environmental cues and manage nodule efficiency.

  • South Africa has been severely affected by large-scale corruption scandals for many years. Much of this corruption is linked to the ANC’s policy of cadre deployment, in which loyal party members are often placed in key government positions and state-owned enterprises, even if they lack the necessary skills or experience.
  • Why Healthy Soil is a Big Deal -Earthworms aerate soil, making it easier for roots, water, and air to penetrate. Just 1 acre of healthy land can support up to 1 million worms, processing 10 tons of soil a year! Without worms, soil becomes compacted, nutrient-poor, and drought-prone. A healthy underground network = a thriving garden above.
