“The continued destruction of natural habitat, loss of biodiversity and increased pollution is tantamount to throwing away our inheritance, while at the same time robbing future generations of the wealth producing assets society has always taken for granted”– Roma Stibravy

NGO Sustainability is collaborating with the Maldives Minister Mohamed Aslam on the Sustainable of Renewable Energy City/ Islands Projects. The Maldives, Masdar and S.T.A.R. islands all revealed plans to become carbon-neutral islands within our decade. These plans are crucial for the islands in meeting the rising sea levels associated with global warming. Solar panels, wind turbines and electric engines will primarily substitute fossil-fuel based energy on all three islands. In January 2011, NGO Sustainability will be hosting a panel at the U.N. to explain these projects further and to encourage the U.N. to support and develop sustainability energy not only for these three islands, but for all countries.
