understood needs refinement as the colonial imprint has distorted the existing fabric of the rural social systems. Agriculture, peasantry, land use, social systems and infrastructure, and indigenous technical knowledge systems need a more profound
understanding of structural-functional and comparative analysis approaches.

The repercussions of climate change are becoming increasingly real and frightening with each passing day. While global warming has had a significant impact on modern agriculture, interestingly, the sector is also one of the contributors to climate change.

However, we can overcome this challenge by nurturing and restoring our agroecosystems. This can address multiple issues—ranging from food security and livelihoods, to the general well-being

Evolving Animals of the Pyro Age

Animals have been evolving since a long time in order to fit the challenges posed by climatic conditions. Jnyanam Bordoloi is absolutely right when he says species evolve over time, in order to survive and eventually thrive, in some of the most difficult environments created by climate change. When we know which species are leading the race for survival, we can work for the conservation of the ones who are at risk, and the fragile ecosystem they hold

Feldheim: Hundred Per Cent Energy Self-Sufficient Village in Germany

After his participation in the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue (BETD) 2023 as a Media Fellow from TERI in March 2023, Abhas Mukherjee reminisces his visit to the village of Feldheim, which is one of the most remarkable concepts for supplying enterprises, private households and local government with renewable energies on a decentralized, self-sufficient basis.

Healthy Aging During Global Warming: New Discovery Could Hold The Key

New research in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) nematode worms suggests that this phenomenon is tied to a protein found in the nervous system that controls the expression of collagens, the primary building block of skin, bone and connective tissue in many animals
