- by frontiersinIn regions where it hardly ever rains, water is valuable, and access to it is unequal. One such place is Alto Hospicio in Chile, located in the hyper-arid Atacama Desert region. Now, researchers have tested if making water from fog could be a solution to the city’s troubled water supply. Using fog collectors, they found […]
- by Rebecca CampbellAlthough the world is today facing critical challenges, there are great opportunities for Africa to be a leader in countering climate change. So affirmed Côte d’Ivoire-based African Development Bank (AfDB) Climate Change and Green Growth Department director Anthony Nyong. These opportunities include renewable energy, energy storage and sustainable finance. (He was delivering a keynote address […]
