Sustainability
by Sophie Fitzjohn.
S
ustainability is at the forefront of many peoples’ minds and businesses currently, as living and working in a sustainable way has become a necessity due to the modern flow of life that we have become accustomed to. When we hear the word “sustainability” many tend to think of renewable fuel sources, reducing carbon emissions, protecting environments and finding ways of keeping the delicate ecosystems of our planet in balance. In short, sustainability looks to protect our natural environment, human and ecological health, while driving innovation and not compromising our way of life as we know it. There are numerous examples throughout human history where a civilisation has damaged its own environment and damaged its survival chances due to taking resources to sustain certain lifestyles. Sustainability takes into account how we might live in harmony with the natural world around us, protecting it from damage and destruction. We now live in a modern, consumerist and largely urban existence throughout

the developed world and we consume a lot of natural resources every day as a result. Urban areas consume more power than those who live in rural areas; however there are improvement to be made everywhere, as it is estimated that we use 40% more resources every year than we can actually put back, which must change. The front runners in the cause are economic development, social development and environmental protection. These are the three

main sectors when sustainability is broken down into three main parts. Within the economic development bracket, supply and demand market is a main focus as it’s consumerist in nature and modern life requires a lot of resources every day; for the sake of the environment, getting what we consume under control is the main goal. Economic development is based around giving people what they want without compromising quality of life, and this is especially important in the developing world. The biggest topic when it comes to social development for many people right now is sustainable housing and how we can improve new homes and build from sustainable materials. Education is also a key aspect - encouraging people to participate in environmental sustainability is the first step and also teaching them about the effects of environmental protection is paramount; as well as warning of the dangers if we cannot achieve a positive outcome. Also the biggest social activism movement related to the social development side of sustainability, has been programs such as Fair Trade and the Rainforest Alliance. These two programmes encourage good farming practices while ensuring farmers who produce luxury goods such as coffee and cocoa receive a decent living wage. Environmental protection is the third

pillar when talking about sustainability, and to many is the main concern of the future of humanity. It defines how we should study and protect ecosystems, air quality, integrity and sustainability of our resources and focuses on the areas that place stress on the environment. It also concerns how technology will drive our greener future; the EPA recognized that developing technology and biotechnology is key to this sustainability, and protecting the environment of the future from potential damage that technological advances could potentially bring. All these elements are crucial when it comes to improving the world we live in. As many of us have experienced lockdown recently due to Covid19; I feel that a lot of people have rethought their normal way of life and in some ways have realised how damaging their habits were to the planet and own wellbeing. From no longer being able to travel almost immediately, to reducing our consumption of impulse buys and indulging activities. There’s been so many things that have changed, but it has definitely been a chance to step back and actually engage in the present. Even though many aspects of life have suffered, many other areas such as nature have thrived as a result of human activity being limited. And I think that’s been a huge lesson for everyone and future generations to come on how life could proceed and prosper in the future.

Farm Protest!
I
Making yourself heard in numbers.
n September 2020, taking advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bharatiya Janata Party-ruled government – passed three Farm Laws through an Emergency Ordinance, despite the opposition of state governments, many MPs, farmers movements and trade unions. By the end of November 2020, the Indian farmers movements and trade unions organised a massive national strike called Dilli Chalo (“Let’s go to Delhi”). Reportedly, over 250 million people around the country took part. The protest was initially led by farmers from the North of India (Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh), but it immediately found nationwide support. While the protests have gained some traction, they still have been under reported in many Western Media considering the magnitude of the uprising. The three anti-farmer laws that have provoked such passionate action from the Indian people include reforms that would have a disastrous impact on farmers: they would deregulate the price control of food, liberalise the control of food stocks and trade, and give more freedom to corporations to use contract farming with smallholder farmers. In India,
fresh eye
68% of farmers are smallholders who own less than two hectares of land – they represent the backbone of India’s society, culture and economy. The main concern from protestors is that the agriculture laws would ruin the livelihoods of millions of people, mainly farmers, increasing their dependency on price fluctuations, and on corporate speculation of stocks and crops. Support Rihanna, Greta Thunberg lead growing support and draw furious backlash. International solidarity is growing, with farmers movements from all around the world showing their support and the UK labour movement signing a public statement. The massive and widespread farmers’ protests in India have much to teach us, but if we take away only one thing, it should be that this global crisis needs to be addressed through an internationalist response and with the solidarity of different sectors of the society. Indian farmers are fighting with strong determination for their food sovereignty through national strikes, working along with trade unions but also reaching out to gather a wider support of India’s population.

ot liking chocolate puts you firmly in ‘The Weird Club’ in my book. Not liking ice cream I’m afraid puts you in the same club only your rank is ‘Club Leader’. To me, ice cream is without question one of the food of the Gods. From childhood it is rightly considered a treat amongst treats and has the capacity to anethetize in the most pleasurable way while warming the culinary senses. Looking for an ice cream that sits somewhere between Carte D’Or and a freshly scooped gelato from the streets of Florence?

It helps boost your Immunity: Ice cream is a kind of fermented food and it is said that fermented food is beneficial for our respiratory and gastrointestinal health. A better respiratory system and improved gut health would eventually improve your immunity. Mentioned brands available at Ocado and Waitrose.

It Is Loaded With Vitamins and Minerals: Ice-cream contains milk and milk solids, which means whenever you eat ice cream, your body obtains the goodness of vitamin D, vitamin A, calcium, phosphorus and riboflavin. Apart from this, the different flavours add extra nutrition quotient to it. For example, dark chocolate ice cream is loaded with antioxidants and flavonoids, which helps in lowering your bad cholesterol and helps improve your heart health.

hy choose a classic car? Why a less efficient vehicle, with none of the modern amenities, that needs more maintenance and can at any time suffer a failure that is difficult to repair quickly due to parts availability? As technology evolves, in a relentless search for speed, efficiency and ease of use, many times the user experience is neglected. It’s easier to open the streaming service app and search for the song than go through the Vinyl shelf, pick the album, put the record on the turntable and locate the right groove. It’s simpler to take a picture with a smartphone and review it instantly than taking your time to perfect your skills, shoot film and wait a few days for the results. This instant gratification is great for everyday life, for a world that changes so fast that it leaves us no time to slow down and enjoy the experiences.
Classic
In the deapth of classic Many people forget the difference between a classic car and an old car. When it comes to a classic vehicle, the way it makes you feel, outweighs all its faults. It has to be more than the sum of all its parts. A classic car has character, personality, it has human qualities. In a world focused on disposable consumption and instant gratification, most people do not understand this point of view aficionados have towards these amazing machines of a bygone era. It’s more than yearning for a time that doesn’t exist anymore (we all know our choice is irrational), but not everything that makes sense on paper is the best option.

Classic appreciation note: As the trend for the latest and greatest evolves, there’s also a growing affinity for “obsolete” technology, mainly in the art world. For instance, many well-known musicians, have gone back to recording on tape and fully analogue systems. The same goes for world-renowned photographers and movie directors, that still prefer using analogue cameras and film. All this, for a very simple reason - the natural imperfections of these outdated formats, give them a more natural and genuine character.
The gap between a modern and vintage car is larger than it first appears. You could think of it as the difference between reading a paperback book and reading on a Kindle.

watch, known for its colorful wristwatches, has found its latest palette in NASA’s iconic astronaut gear. The Swiss watch brand is ready to launch its new Space Collection this week with hues taken from the garments worn by space shuttle crew members. “Who said the sky’s the limit? We’re taking a giant leap with a brand-new collection taking inspiration from space,” Swatch teased on its website. Released June 3 at select Swatch stores and on the company’s website, the Space Collection includes five models, three of which are designed using Swatch’s new material innovation: Bioceramic. A mix of two-thirds ceramic and one-third bio-sourced plastic, the new watches are both resilient and resistant, while still being silk-like to the touch.

Leading the new looks is the “Extravehicular,” a 47mm “Big Bold” chronograph inspired by the white extravehicular mobility unit - EMU, or spacesuit - that was first worn in space by NASA astronauts Story Musgrave and Don Peterson in 1983. The two STS-6 spacewalkers inaugurated the use of the EMU, which is still in use at the International Space Station today.

urf and turf or surf ‘n’ turf is a main course combining seafood and red meat. A typical seafood component would be lobster (either lobster tail or a whole lobster), prawns, shrimp, squid or scallops, any of which could be steamed, grilled or breaded and fried. The meat is typically beef steak, although others may be used. One standard combination is lobster tail and filet mignon. Surf and turf is eaten in steakhouses in the United States, Canada, UK and Australia, and may also be available in some British/Irishstyle pubs in those countries. Surf and turf is often considered as an example of conspicuous consumption and kitsch, as it combines two expensive foods
which are not normally considered to be complementary. The point of surf ‘n’ turf is to maximize hedonistic extravagance.
