Welcome back to our Energy 101 series on Nature-based Solutions! 🌱🌎 This week, we are breaking down the five most common types of Nature-based Solutions projects according to IUCN (the International Union for Conservation of Nature). Several of these ecosystems approaches intersect in our case study projects, so these categories are intended as loose guidelines rather than strict criteria. ✅ The five ecosystem approaches to Nature-based Solutions include: 🌳 Infrastructure 🌱 Protection 🌍 Restoration 🌟 Management 📖 Issue-Specific ecosystems approaches to Nature-based solutions. Along with each approach is a key successful case study that illustrates the impact of NbS when properly implemented. ➡️ To learn more about the project we highlighted in this post, check out bit.ly/nbs-casesearch and discover more NbS projects around the world. In the next post, we're taking a look at the importance of human rights as a focus for all Nature-based Solutions projects. How can we tell when a project is falling short of its commitment to aid the environment and local communities?

🌞 🚀🌍 Continuing our series on #Sun4All academic milestones, we're excited to highlight a significant paper in "Progress in Environmental Geography" titled "Solidaric Solarities: Governance Principles for Transforming Solar Power Relations." It was co-written among others by Siddharth Sareen and Bérénice Girard, proud partners of Sun4All at Universitetet i Stavanger (UiS)! 🔍 Key highlights: 🔹 Advocates for redistributive and emancipatory solar development. 🔹 Introduces the concept of ‘solidaric solarities,’ focusing on empowering victims of energy injustices. 🔹 Examines how solar development can promote solidarity with marginalised groups, creating affordable and distributed renewable energy systems. 🔹 Offers practical governance principles based on solidarity values, providing pathways for solidaric solar transitions. Let's harness solar energy to empower and uplift communities together! 💪🌱 #Sun4All #SolarEnergy #Sustainability #EnergyJustice #SolidaricSolarities #RenewableEnergy 🔗 https://bit.ly/4cZnP3S

The Accelerating Retreat of Swiss Glaciers 🏔️🌡️ The retreat of our glaciers is a stark reminder of the urgent need for action. It's more than a loss of beauty; it affects water supply, river flows, and energy. We need to explore renewable energy and water-saving strategies. What innovations in these areas are you excited about? Let’s brainstorm and lead the way in environmental stewardship. #GlacierRetreat #RenewableEnergy #WaterConservation 👉 "Comment with your innovative ideas on renewable energy and water conservation!" I will list some I can think of myself in the comments

Cutting-edge innovations are key to making #RE more compatible with the environment. Advanced monitoring systems, smart #grid integration, and #energystorage solutions optimize #energyproduction, minimize waste, and enhance efficiency. By leveraging these technologies, we can significantly reduce our #carbonfootprint and pave the way for a sustainable, eco-friendly future. Let's commit to supporting and investing in these innovative solutions to protect our planet and ensure a cleaner, greener future for all. Together, we can make a difference! #LetsChangeEnergy #WorldEnvironmentDay #SDG7 The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) Vaishali Mishra
✋❌ Myth busted: Solar and wind need too much land! Switching to #cleanenergy doesn't have to require more land than the current fossil fuel systems. Renewable energy projects need to weave environmental protection into every step of their planning. Through research, smart planning, innovation and biodiversity assessments, we can harmoniously share space with nature, farms, cities and more.💛 Happy #WorldEnvironmentDay! #LetsChangeEnergy #LandRestoration #GenerationRestoration

Fascinating new research from the UCL Institute for Sustainable Resources and Boku University shows that a lack of transparency is allowing for the privatisation of land for renewable energy infrastructure in Brazil by large international corporations. Lead author, Dr Michael Klingler of Boku University, noted: "The land issue is central to driving effective climate action and promoting 'just' low-carbon energy pathways. The necessity for the energy transition must not be questioned, but rather the way in which these projects are implemented. The collaboration with affected rural communities, NGOs and scientists in the Brazilian state of Bahia showed that traditional and marginalized population groups are confronted with 'new' land conflicts due to the expansion of renewable energies. However, these are increasingly being legitimized by the climate change mitigation imperative." The research was supported by the European Research Council (ERC) Council and the research team included Nadia Ameli, Michael Klingler, Jamie Rickman and Johannes Schmidt.

🎤Our governments are increasingly embracing #SustainableLiving from what they keep presenting in both global and local meetings. It's a journey of commitment to our planet's future, and lives are involved. So we need a reflection of what is actually happening on the ground for us to truly make strides. 🌍 #EcoFriendlyGov 🌿From renewable energy initiatives to conservation projects, every step counts. Let's ensure that these initiatives and projects actually happen physically and not only on reports and presentations. #GreenLiving #SustainableDevelopment ✍️What actions can we take to push and actualise implementation of government policies? Share your thoughts! #CommunityAction #SustainableChoices 🌱

The Clean Energy Gateway opens up with dynamic impulses and holistic approaches for energy supply and environmental protection at Intersolar Europe 2024!☀️ From June 19 to 21, join us in Munich to discuss innovative solutions for the energy transition. "Renewable energies serve to protect the environment, and by this we don't just mean 'solar power' per se, but all aspects from A to Z. We critically scrutinize what impact our solar power plants themselves have on the environment. What impact does construction have? What does a solar plant mean for biodiversity? We don't want to rest on our laurels; we need innovations and to think outside the box to develop solutions that protect our planet in the long term," says our CEO Joachim Goldbeck. Every project is meticulously evaluated from both economic and ecological standpoints, ensuring harmony between the two. Our ultimate goal is to create a win-win scenario for both humanity and nature. Embark on the path to sustainability: GOLDBECK SOLAR focuses on Agri-PV and prioritizes biodiversity, carefully preserving and fostering the rich ecosystems surrounding our solar power plants. We're eager to share our concrete strategies and solutions. Don't miss this opportunity to visit us at Booth A5.480! 👉 https://lnkd.in/epcAH3WG #IntersolarEurope #Intersolar2024 #Photovoltaics #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #ClimateProtection #AgriPV #Biodiversity #SolarEnergy #CleanEnergyGateway #GOLDBECKSOLAR
