According to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Sweden  "Most people live in cities, and thus most energy is consumed there, at the same time there is not sufficient space around cities in which to produce the energy, food and materials these cities need. People in the richer parts of the world use more land area for energy consumption than their equitable share." We can begin talking about the city from the local part of it you spend most of your time. Think about the area you live in a spend most of your time. Do you know it's history?

Bees communicate by dancing and this was discovered and understood by Karl Ritter von Frisch, an Austrian ethologist who received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1973. The "waggle dance" tells about more distant food sources. In order to do this, the dancing bee moves forward a certain distance on the vertically hanging honeycomb in the hive, then traces a half circle to return to her starting point, whereupon the dance begins again. On the straight stretch, the bee "waggles" with her posterior. The direction of the straight stretch contains the information about the direction of the food source, the angle between the straight stretch and the vertical being precisely the angle which the direction of flight has to the position of the sun. The distance to the food so...

What is sustainability? Why is it important? What are people doing to achieve it? The Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate, environmental degradation, prosperity, and peace and justice. The Goals interconnect and in order to leave no one behind, it ís important that we achieve each Goal and target by 2030. The Goals are explained in detail here . The Young People's Trust for the Environment is a charity set up to encourage young people's understanding of the environment.
