Denmark announced plans to plant 1 billion trees and convert 10% of its farmland into forest
In what it’s calling “the biggest change to the Danish landscape in over 100 years,” lawmakers in Denmark just approved a plan to plant 1 billion trees and convert 10% of farmland into forest and natural habitats.
The government will spend $6.1 billion over the next two decades to acquire land from farmers. A large portion of the forests will be planted on low-lying soils, which are especially damaging to the climate.
Even better: Denmark, which is also leading the way in creating fully recyclable wind turbine blades, is implementing these initiatives under its new Green Tripartite Ministry, created after a green deal was reached earlier this year between farmers, industry, labor unions, and environmental groups — a true collaborative effort to take significant climate action.

A teen invented a solar-powered water purifier — made entirely of electronic waste — to help people impacted by floods
In Bangladesh, a shocking 49% of the country’s drinking well water has unsafe limits of carcinogenic arsenic. Climate change has worsened the water contamination crisis, with an uptick in disasters causing devastating flooding.
Earlier this year, floodwaters displaced 1.24 million Bangladeshi families from their homes, which became breeding grounds for bacteria and parasites, spreading waterborne illnesses.
To tackle this pressing issue, 17-year-old Zabeer Zarif Akhter invented a first-of-its-kind, solar-powered water purification system to remove pathogens from the water.
Remarkably, the water purifier is also made entirely from electronic waste, which is notoriously hard to recycle, and it is one of the fastest-growing solid waste streams in the world.
