#15 - Global Sunblock

Hi Greensters,

🌍 Looking for a climate haven? New rankings just dropped - revealing which countries are best prepared for the heat, floods, and chaos of a warming world. (Hint: Scandinavia’s looking good.)

☀️ And in the stratosphere? Scientists are testing wild new ideas to cool the Earth by blocking sunlight. Yep, solar geoengineering is no longer just sci-fi.

🍑 Plus, a sweet summer recipe that’ll have you roasting peaches instead of the planet.

Enjoy

🗞️ In the News

🥗 The Green Meal

🍑 This fruit is water-efficient compared to many crops, especially when grown in its natural climate zones. Pairing it with nuts (like almonds or walnuts) adds protein and crunch, while herbs and cottage cheese bring flavor without the carbon cost of meat or dairy-heavy desserts.

It’s a fresh way to eat seasonally, reduce emissions, and celebrate what summer harvests do best.

♻️ Eco Tip

Awareness: Many devices - like TVs, game consoles, or smart speakers - still draw power even when “off.” This standby energy adds up, accounting for about 2–10% of your home’s electricity use.

Action: 🔌 Use smart plugs or power strips to cut off standby power completely when you're not using devices. It’s a low-effort way to trim both emissions and your electric bill.
