Samedi dernier (au 11 mai), j’ai eu une réunion d’affaires.

Elle était très active et compétente et j’ai aimé son point de vue ainsi que celui de son équipe. C’est une entreprise célèbre qui suit une bonne politique. J’ai des idées pour cela.

À mon avis, cette coopération peut conduire à de bonnes opportunités. Beaucoup de bonnes choses peuvent être réalisées avec son équipe.

De plus, cela sera bénéfique pour mon projet innovant et cette coopération peut être attractive pour des investissements futurs, tant pour moi que pour l’entreprise.

J’espère que nous pourrons parvenir à un accord.

Increasing sanctions against Iran?!

Increasing sanctions against Iran?!

by Admin ♥ 0 Leave a Comment

They have raised the incident of sanctions again. Interesting to me!

But, have the sanctions against Iran and the military forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran been successful?

Actually, recent happenings are the result of these sanctions! Have the sanctions really caused Iran’s military power to decrease? By no means!

Sanctions have no effect on the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran and its military forces.

In fact, this old policy is no longer effective; on the contrary, it has caused the Iranian military system to gain strength.

On the other hand, When you constantly threaten a country, that country will constantly work on its military and defense forces, and this is the real result of sanctions!

The effect of sanctions is only indirectly on the people of Iran, people who cannot afford to buy some of their essential medicines. The countries that have sanctions against Iran succeeded in weakening the Iranian people with this tool. They have crushed the weaker sections of Iranian society. In other words, they have imposed economic pressure on the people of Iran and not on the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran! Is this the purpose of the sanctions?!

This wrong policy against human rights will only increase the tension between the countries imposing sanctions on the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Even now, they are using this tool to appease Israel, but in the long-term, it will only strengthen Iran’s military and defense forces. With the current policy, Iran’s military force will be much stronger next year than it is this year.

The truth is that their old policies are unsuitable for the new realities of today’s world and have only exacerbated crises.

This outdated notion that a country can be isolated with a fence is impractical in today’s interconnected world, and this misguided policy has led to the failure of many important environmental projects globally.

Iran possesses significant potential to improve the current global situation, thanks to its human resources and geographical features. Special attention should be paid to this potential. Utilizing media tools does not alter reality! What I observe in most media now is politicians’ games designed to prevent their citizens from seeing and understanding the facts. This manipulation of news is not a solution; Reality continues to grow in its place!

The Iranian people are not a threat. They serve in the best positions of all countries in the world, especially developed countries, and the forces are very effective. Their recent examples are in NASA and in the best scientific centers in the world.

Finally, I consider the sanctions to be equivalent to the inability of the countries that have imposed sanctions against Iran to control the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Path to Climate Change Mitigation

Path to Climate Change Mitigation

by Admin ♥ 0 Leave a Comment

Mitigation means making the impact of climate change less severe.

Climate change mitigation is reducing or preventing the release of greenhouse gas emissions which are warming the planet. This can include using renewable energies like solar panels instead of burning fossil fuel like oil, making older equipment more energy efficient, and reducing how much we consume.

To tackle environmental issues, we all need to shift towards greener, resilient societies that are climate neutral. A Just Transition means developing a framework which is fair, inclusive, protects workers, creates jobs and ensures the costs and benefits of a world powered by renewables are fairly distributed, leaving no country or person behind.

We all have a part to play in combating climate change, and the future of our planet depends on how we produce energy. Fortunately, we have the tools and the knowledge to shift towards clean renewable energy but need to continue educating ourselves and calling out our leaders to take bold, ambitious actions to fight this crisis.

Stories From Female Farmers

Stories From Female Farmers

A majority of the world’s food is produced by smallholder farms and in Africa, women account for nearly 70% of the labor. Gender specific obstacles put women farmers at a disadvantage, preventing them from feeding their families and uplifting their communities.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), giving women access to the same resources and tools as men will raise agricultural output and eliminate hunger for approximately 150 million people.

According to FAO, women reinvest up to 90% of their earnings into their families. Funds spent on nutrition, food, healthcare, school, and income-generating activities help to break the cycle of intergenerational poverty and benefit nations at large.

Ensuring farmers have the tools to produce food in a changing climate will strengthen food security, increase agricultural productivity and income from crops, livestock and fish, minimising the negative impact on the environment.

Gender equality is a fundamental human right and empowering women is critical to ending hunger and poverty. As climate change continues to change the world, we need to continue taking action for the heroes of our food systems.

+ Even though Africa is rich with renewable energy sources, as of 2019, the continent’s main source of electricity is fossil fuels – the dominant cause of global warming according to a recent report on climate change.

Dangers Of Plastic Pollution

Dangers Of Plastic Pollution

by Admin ♥ 0 Leave a Comment

Every year, 8 million metric tonnes of plastic winds up in our oceans. That’s the equivalent of dumping one garbage truck full of plastic into the ocean every minute. If nothing is done, this will increase to two garbage trucks a minute by 2030.

Our oceans currently have over 150 million tonnes of plastics today. The Environmental Investigation Agency, an international NPO, has warned that if we continue business as usual, plastic pollution in oceans is set to triple and outweigh fish in the ocean by 2040.

There are over 80 countries in the world with full or partial ban on single-use plastic – including more than 30 African countries. Unfortunately Ghana, which produces over 1.1 million tonnes of plastic waste per year – has not created nor implemented any regulations on plastic bags.

According to the 5 Gyres Institute – an NPO focused on reducing plastic pollution – a plastic bag has an average lifespan of 12minutes before it is thrown away. Globally, one million plastic bags are used per minute and only 1% of them are recycled. Most of them make their way to the ocean where they can take up to 20 years to decompose.

The sunlight and ocean waves cause most of the 8 million metric tonnes of plastic waste in our oceans to break into tiny particles from millimetres to micrometres in size. These microplastics have been found in sea ice, the guts of animals who mistake them for other marine life and in our drinking water.

Plastic pollution is a critical issue in our environment and we all have to do our part to save our planet. From using less plastic, collecting litter in our environment, recycling and challenging our loved ones to do the same, we can have less waste in our landfills, protect our wildlife and ecosystems.
