Sustainability
Anger and Activism. Content Warning.
In the heart of a once-thriving coastal town, now overshadowed by towering factories that belched thick plumes of smoke into the sky, a group of young activists gathered in a dimly lit room. Their faces etched with determination and anger, they had seen their beloved home turn into a wasteland of pollution and environmental injustice. The town's once pristine beaches were now covered in plastic waste, and the nearby river ran black with toxins, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.

"Melting Memories. Content Warning.
In the quaint little village of Willow brook, nestled between lush hills and babbling brooks, lived an elderly individual named Mr. Henry. With a silver beard and eyes that twinkled with wisdom, he was a living repository of cherished memories. For him, the world was a canvas of stories, and the colors were painted by the passage of time.

The Last Symphony of the Earth
In a world not so far into the future, the impacts of climate change were felt deeply by all living beings. The once lush landscapes had turned into desolate wastelands, and the once vibrant ecosystems were now on the brink of collapse. Among those affected was a small village nestled in the heart of a valley, where people had lived in harmony with nature for generations.

Big Concrete Problem
Let us consider a moderately-sized skyscraper, standing at approximately 100 meters and comprising 30 stories. It is highly probable that a structure of this magnitude was constructed using concrete, a material that incorporates cement. In this instance, the quantity of cement utilized would have amounted to roughly 6,000 tons, resulting in the emission of approximately 4,600 metric tons of carbon into the atmosphere during the manufacturing process. This is equivalent to the emissions generated by driving a car for a distance of 12 million miles. When extrapolated to encompass all the buildings worldwide, this calculation fails to fully encapsulate the carbon footprint of cement.
