Our planet and humanity currently face several challenges, including climate change, water scarcity, inequality, and hunger. A global approach is the most effective way to resolve most of these issues. We must collectively promote sustainable development, focusing on environmental balance, social improvement, and economic growth.

Jackson city’s main water treatment plant failed in mid-to-late August 2022. This failure cut off the city’s residents access to safe and clean water. In introspection, this crisis proves how the city’s water system is fragile and increasingly susceptible to climate change effects in the coming years.

The new map of Mars released by the European Space Agency (ESA) shows locations with abundant hydrated minerals on the red planet. Consequently, this changes how we think about the planet’s watery past. In addition, the map indicates the best places to land for further exploration in the future.

With the increasing demand for sustainable climate action came some new buzzwords. Carbon Neutrality is one of the terms you will find around where climate action is the topic of discussion.

Understandably, not everyone understands what these terms really mean. We use them as frequently as it gets, but do we know if we are using them correctly? Read on to learn more about these terms and how they contribute to the fight against climate change and the quest to save the planet.

Caring for the environment should be a collective responsibility. With American Recycles Day – November 15, 2021 – approaching, it is a good time to discuss viable ways to reduce environmental waste by buying eco-friendly products. Every household using a water filter to produce clean drinking water must replace these filter cartridges after some time. The frequency of the change depends on the model, water quality, and water usage. While home water filtration systems harm the environment less than plastic bottles, the used cartridges still constitute part of the landfill. But it is not all doom; recycling can help to mitigate this problem. Read on to find out how.

Recent collaborative research between the researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, and Lockheed Martin Corporation has led to the invention of a hydrogel-based water purification technique.Many features make this technique outstanding, including a 12x higher efficiency compared to present technologies.

The increasing demand for reverse osmosis water systems is not surprising, considering how advanced this water filtration technology is. Here is a blog that we wrote before that explains how powerful the reverse osmosis is: How Does a Reverse Osmosis Filter System Work? RO system efficiently removes contaminants, providing high-water, clean, and healthy water for drinking and cooking. However, it also produces wastewater – a major concern for users. Traditional reverse osmosis systems produce up to four cups of wastewater for every cup of filtered water. How is this possible?

The United Nations Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) suggests that “Access to clean water is a fundamental human right and a prerequisite for the realization of many other human rights.” When the United Nations (UN) member countries established a plan for sustainable development in 2015, known as Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, clean water was high on the agenda.

Humans are both the persecutor and the victim of water pollution. How can we stop this vicious circle? Check out to see how you can go green with Waterdrop!
