A platform for better climate change decision-making powered by generative AI
You are what you eat: the impact of ocean plastic on marine life and humans
You are what you eat.
An estimated 8 million to 10 million tonnes of plastic end up in the ocean each year.
Plastic in the ocean breaks down into microplastics which can cause serious environmental concerns because they can be eaten by marine life and can cause harm to humans.
Rethinking urban mobility: visualizing sustainable futures with Kassandra
“Building more roads to prevent congestion is like a fat man loosening his belt to prevent obesity” Lewis Mumford, 1955
Historic cities were not built for cars. Visualising future sustainable scenarios via Kassandra can help decision makers obtain buy-in from stakeholders and citizens for this often delicate issue, improving resilience and quality of life.
Kassandra’s role in safeguarding Mediterranean wetlands and biodiversity
Healthy wetlands play an essential role as a habitat for biodiversity that can help to adapt to climate change.
Mediterranean wetlands are critical habitats for migratory birds. However, they are threatened by human pressure, reducing their capacity to preserve biodiversity.
Kassandra can help in assessing the resilience of these areas and developing adaptation pathways for better decision making.
Coastal heritage preservation in a changing climate: a collaborative discussion

Merry Christmas in the age of climate change: Sicily’s new reality…
Climate Change is causing average and peak temperatures to rise across the globe.
In Sicily, where we are based, temperatures are already exceeding even the more conservative estimates with projected increases of 3 degrees and exceptional peak temperatures in summer – Sicily holds the European temperature record of 48.8 degrees – and peak winter temperatures are also rising with 27 degrees recorded on 14th December 2022.
Celebrating a Tropical Christmas, therefore, is not simply a provocation, but a very likely reality of our near future. Christmas this year will be therefore a time for reflection on our impact on nature.
