The climate is changing: the rain is heavier and the dry periods between are lasting longer. How can we moderate these two extremes? A lot of rain water currently drains through sewers to prevent flooding. However, that does not always work and increases the problem of drought.

One way to deal with this; is to have our urban greenery function like a sponge. A sponge can moderate these extremes; it can absorb water quickly, hold it temporarily and gradually return the water to the subsoil.

A significant energy transition is underway in the Indo-Pacific and the share of energy delivered by electricity is growing quickly. In Southeast Asia, energy demand is growing at an average of 6% per year and forecast to grow 60% by 2040. Demand for renewable electricity is accelerating due to its low cost.

The most important goal of the ScoreWithMe Smart Program is to educate and raise awareness of sustainability among the younger generation. The focus of the program is on the selective collection of waste, with a special emphasis on the collection of used batteries, small accumulators and used mobile phones. The points earned through the collection can be managed by the students in the PontBank in the Financial Compass-BankWithMe program, and they learn about basic banking and financial concepts.

Türchen is an individual countdown calendar. The users can create it theyself, fill it with their own content and share it with friends. Initially it was created as an advent calendar.

Water is abundant on Earth, with 71% of the planet's surface covered by oceans.Unfortunately, this water is too salty to be used for drinking, sanitation, agriculture or even industrial processes, and water scarcity is one of the most pressing problems of our times.  

DH2OME is a game-changing infrastructure designed to provide litres of fresh water every day where it is needed most. Many of the countries facing severe droughts and water scarcity are in tropical areas, most of which are developing countries where the sun shines most of the year.

The Municipality of Budapest and FŐKERT share the goal of increasing the natural habitats of flora and fauna in Budapest. In their park maintenance practices, they have already introduced several elements of nature-friendly, near-natural green space management. In the spring of 2021, they took a new step towards more ecological maintenance with a new programme: an extensive grassland management programme was introduced, which has created more than 28 hectares of insect-friendly green spaces in the capital's parks and green strips.
