We have struggled a lot to bring this important information which completely isolated pandemic time showed us.. that if irrational waste generations are reduced, you can really make a huge difference in terms of microplastics reduction in our aquatic body.. This article will enlighten you about several facts which can be taken care of in daily life..
The COVID-19 pandemic has provided a unique opportunity to monitor and assess the impact of human activities on the environment. The outcomes of our study fulfill the major goal of SDG-14, which aims to conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources. So this important message should reach to the general public. https://lnkd.in/dNvJBiKP Congratulations to our team Dr Mahua Saha Chayanika Rathore https://lnkd.in/dyU4VBkp https://lnkd.in/dyDe2rXN

Humic acids’ ability to create stable aggregates in the soil enhances aeration, root penetration, and microbial activity. As a result, the soil becomes more resilient to drought conditions, providing a favorable environment for plant roots to thrive. This eco-friendly approach aligns with sustainable practices, making Black Earth's humic acids a valuable tool in modern soil management for moisture conservation.

Ground-breaking new research from SNAPP's working group on Wildfires and Human Health, led by University of Washington and The Nature Conservancy, shows US counties with the highest rate of sustained smoke particulate pollution are home to higher numbers of vulnerable people. This research also updates the 2017 wildfire smoke vulnerability assessment, and shows that since 2017, vulnerability to wildfires has increased dramatically in the PNW.
