Let's go green
Growing trees to reduce climate change
By planting more trees, it will reduce climate change and the extreme temperatures caused by global warming. It will increase the amount of oxygen in the air and it will reduce carbon dioxide .
Global warming, deforestation and desertification. It has affected a large part of my country , my country barely receives any rainfall due to these problems.
The trees that are going to be planted are trees that bare food and thus reducing hunger in the country. It will benefit literally everyone,
I didn't take any steps because I am alone and afraid to speak up
- Taking action to combat climate change and its impacts (Sustainability)
- Concept: An idea being explored for its feasibility to build a product, service, or business model based on that idea
I didn't accomplish anything yet, I only planted trees around my house and made a garden.
- A new use of an existing technology (e.g. application to a new problem or in a new location)
My solution is based on climate change. I live in a really hot country (Namibia) which cuts down more trees than actually planting them. I want to start a project that will grow more trees in areas where they are most needed in my country. It's getting intensively hot at the point where we don't even receive rain anymore in most parts of the country. Climate change and global warming has really started affecting my country and the only way to minimize that impact is by planting more trees to increase the absorption of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. My solution will only use our ancestral methods of planting , because the main aim is to grow trees to reduce climate change. We are going to use sprinklers to water the plants so that they don't dry out,
- Ancestral Technology & Practices
- Other
My solution will impact a lot of people but first , we will start planting the trees with my family and friends around our town , we are about 22 and after a year or so , we can impact the whole community into doing so ,
- To reduce global warming and climate change.
- To plant more trees that bare more food which will reduce hunger in the country.
- planting more trees will increase translation thus causing more rain to come to the areas with more trees.
- The warm temperature will drop and the areas will become less dry .
- there will be an availability of enough oxygen
The progress will be measured by the amount of trees that will grow.
Fanancial Barrier and technological barrier.
I am only alone in my team. This will impact my community by providing food from the trees planted and reducing the intense temperatures cause by climate change.
I don't have any so far, it is just me alone.
- Yes
I am qualified because my solution will change the world literally, slowly but surely, we will use the prize to continue with the Initial solution on planting more trees to reduce climate change.
