The 6th Global Youth Environmental Essay Competition 2022

• Deadline July 30, 2022
• Region South Korea

According to Secretary-General of the United Nations António Guterres, carbon neutrality by 2050 is the most urgent mission that the world should accomplish. Carbon neutrality, which is essential to respond to climate change, is not an assignment to a certain country or a certain person.

In this respect, the Educational Association of Software Empowerment (EASE), the host of the 6th Global Youth Environmental Essay Competition, has chosen “Climate Change and Carbon Neutrality” as this year’s essay topic. They hope that the competition provides a special opportunity for youth to study climate change by themselves and motivate them to further engage in various climate actions to achieve this goal in democratic way.

Climate Change and International Order Essay Prize 2022

 Centre for Grand Strategy, King’s College London &

the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI)

2022  Essay Prize

The Centre for Grand Strategy , King's College London, in partnership with the RUSI, is pleased to announce that its second essay prize awarded for original writing on contemporary issues of ‘ Climate Change and International Order’, is now open for submissions on 1st March 2022.

Assumptions and certainties that once underlay the post-1945 international order are crumbling. Yet, discussions about the consequences for present and future ‘world order’ usually fixate upon the realm of great power politics and the political, economic and security consequences of the decline of the west, the resurgence of Russia and the rise of China. The ‘world order’ debate has yet to confront in any meaningful way the climate crisis, which is already creating increasingly destructive weather patterns, drastically changing geographies and ecosystems, and threatening the secure and sustainable supply of key resources. Throughout history, international and regional orders have been resilient and adaptable systems created by converging economic, technological, and ideological forces. But in recorded history, humanity has never faced anything like the effects we anticipate from 2-4 degrees of possible warming.

The purpose of this prize is to promote the publication of research from across a range of disciplines on the theme of ‘Climate Change and International Order’ . We are looking for outstanding essays that explore questions of international, regional, or global order in the context of climate change, ecological collapse, and the impacts of mitigation and adaptation strategies that may define the coming decades.

• One main prize will be awarded, at a value of £1000. At the discretion of the judging panel, up to two runner-up prizes may be awarded.
• Awards are made on the basis of originality, logical argument, sound analysis, style, clarity and conciseness.
• The competition is open to authors of any nationality.
• Essays may be single-authored or multi-authored. Interdisciplinary submissions are encouraged.
• Submissions should be previously unpublished, and between 5,000 and 7,000 words, including footnotes.
• Please include a short abstract and a bibliography (these are not included in the word count).
• The deadline for submission of essays is 1st March 2022.  

You should feel free to frame your essay topic according to your own interests and areas of expertise.

If you would like some inspiration in framing a topic, here are some possible starting points:

• How and why do stable orders begin to weaken and fragment? Which components of ordering systems become most vulnerable first, and can analysing these patterns help us prepare for the world beyond the 1.5 degree threshold?
• What might each of the future scenarios suggested in the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways — including, at the extreme end, environmental and humanitarian catastrophes, wars, economic crises, and political revolutions—mean for the future of statecraft, grand strategy and ideas of global order?
• In what ways can looking to the past help tackle the transnational challenges of the 21st century? How do the types of insecurity we face now compare to those that worried order-builders in the middle of the 20th century?
• How do competing conceptions of international order affect the prospects for successful climate change mitigation strategies?
• How do changing energy infrastructures affect international order? What will be the strategic implications of a post-fossil-fuel world?
• How are different states’ militaries engaging differently with, and planning differently for, the strategic challenges of climate change?
• How do changes in global order, including those driven by climate change, affect and amplify human security challenges and their intersections?
• How do new and emerging technologies transform geopolitics and disrupt patterns of sovereignty, power, and governance? Could the nation-state ever be supplanted?

How to Apply:

Submissions should be emailed with the subject title ‘CGS&RUSI Essay Prize’ to [email protected] , including in the message: full name, age, country of residence, professional affiliation (if applicable), and degree programme currently enrolled on (if applicable).

Please note submissions should be made in .doc or .pdf format.

Please feel welcome to contact [email protected] with any questions.

The 6th Global Youth Environment Essay Competition 2022

I remember visiting the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris during my family trip to Europe. Aside from its solemn dignity, I can never forget my astonishment upon learning that the glorious piece of architecture took 182 years to build, for it meant that the original founders could not live to see the culmination of their own efforts.

Greta Thunberg, a teenage environmental activist, referred to this as 'cathedral thinking' in her 2019 speech to the European Parliament. As demonstrated in the metaphor, issues regarding carbon neutrality are like the construction of a cathedral. The current state of the environment embodies the repercussions of past actions, and the state of the environment for our descendants would in turn represent our current actions. Bhutan, a small country in Southern Asia, appears to be well-aware of such issues regarding our environment. Since the Copenhagen fifteenth Conference of the Parties in 2009, Bhutan has claimed not only to remain carbon neutral but to aim for being 'carbon negative'. In fact, through preserving 60% of their land with forests and investing in numerous green technologies, the country has achieved its goal by successfully removing more CO2 than they emit. Bhutan exemplifies how not only powerful political entities but also those with relatively small spheres of influence are capable of bringing about change.

Inspired by the precedent of Bhutan, I envisioned how individuals like myself could contribute to eco- friendly action. As a student interested in science, my solution was to implement AI technology in the process of waste disposal, thereby improving the rate of recycling. The idea was to use artificial intelligence systems in garbage bins to classify each item of waste during its disposal. Cameras connected with AI models would detect and identify the garbage so that the lid for the correct bin would open. Furthermore, point compensation systems are to be utilized; the system will distribute points to users who recycled their waste properly. The points could then be used as a type of alternative currency for purchasing sustainable goods. Upon conceiving the idea, I immediately took action. After recruiting a couple friends who were mutually interested in sustainable development, I devised a computer program for the AI model using Convolutional Neural Network - a method of ANN Artificial Intelligence specializing in image classification - and installed a prototype in our apartment. The necessary technical components functioned accurately, although the point compensation system was unavailable due to a lack of infrastructure. I also inspected various factors that could undermine the system, such as the AI classification being inaccurate or the manufacturing costs being too expensive. Much to our delight, the AI models showed 91% accuracy in garbage identification, while the profits generated from recycling were estimated to exceed the production costs. With the participation of the general public, what had originally been an abstract concept would gain the potential to make lasting changes in our environment.

AI waste classification is an effective strategy, yet still there are hurdles left in our path. However well- devised the mechanism may be, imperfect recycling may inevitably occur due to inherently unsolvable issues. It is therefore advisable to seek a more fundamental solution to the environmental conundrum by reducing the amount of waste produced in the first place. The inspiration for a fundamental remedy comes from mother nature herself. Instead of using plastic, a substance that is entirely foreign to nature and therefore requires eradication, it would be much more efficient to use an environmentally compatible substance as an alternative. A promising candidate for the job is mycelium, a multicellular material which can alter the molecule structures of other materials. Being a substance of fungal origin, mycelium can also merge into large-scale habitations of mushrooms. When combined with nature’s byproducts, they can replicate and even replace inharmonious plastic. Product designer Eben Bayer has already succeeded in creating a replacement using mycelium as a bond for organic remnants. His replication of diverse properties, from insulation to fire resistance and moisture resistance, demonstrate how plausible the application of mycelium is. While AI bin arrangements are likely to reduce carbon emission rates, the idea of replacing detrimental plastic with eco-friendly substances like mycelium could fundamentally eliminate carbon emission from plastic, achieving the genuine definition of ‘neutrality’.

Like our ancestors who established the foundations of cathedrals, we should endeavor to establish the foundations for a sustainable future society. As the aphorism “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” goes, realistic and result-oriented ideas are essential towards constructing a greener future. Well- developed ideas can be the revolutionary seeds of change, sturdily growing into the roots that sustain our society for years to come. What humanity may need most in the current battle against environmental degradation is an innovative notion to turn the tables.

How do chemical spills and atomic bomb blasts adversely affect the environment of the incident?

by Nazmeen A

With approximately 214,000 dead [1] and 90% of one of Japan’s biggest cities left completely obliterated [2], the impacts of nuclear weapons are often overlooked; these are just two primary effects of the very first use of nuclear weapons in human history. While recorded chemical spills haven’t had the same drastic impact as Hiroshima, it would be imprudent to say they haven’t had effects worthy of acknowledgement. In this essay, I will be exploring the detrimental environmental impact of chemical spills and atomic bomb blasts by embedding ideas from the case study of the Nigerian Bodo oil spill (2008-2009) and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki of 1945 respectively; and specifically, how these events have impacted marine life.

The World Health Organization defines a chemical spill as the “uncontrolled release of a toxic substance.” [3]. One issue is the effect it has on marine life and water quality. The two Bodo oil spills in Bodo, Nigeria, in 2008 and 2009 are key instances of this. Due to corporate neglect, a staggering 600,000 barrels of crude oil leaked into the surrounding town and Niger Delta over 72 days. [4]

According to Audrey Gaughran, Director of Global Issues at Amnesty International, over 49 million litres of crude oil were spilt into the world’s second-largest delta. [5] The oil coated all sea life, killing them via suffocation. The layer of oil that had settled on the water’s surface prevented any oxygen from permeating it, rendering it anoxic and killing off all its marine life. Animals with reliance on aquatic creatures for food were severely impacted, and the domino effect spared no organisms. Roughly 50,000 people in Bodo rely on fishing and farming for a living; many were forced out of income, threatening thousands of livelihoods.

Nuclear warfare has consequences just as devastating, if not worse. The most severe environmental impacts are brought about by the high amount of radiation emitted by explosions. The atomic bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 are the only case studies of nuclear warfare to date. Along with flattening the majority of Hiroshima, the intense heat ignited massive fires that raged across the city, destroying everything that remained. These individual fires combined to form a raging firestorm. Immediate consequences include the burning of 13 square miles of Hiroshima and flames engulfing 22.7% of Nagasaki’s buildings. [6] Significant amounts of ash and other harmful emissions (such as radioactive gases), as well as smoke particles, were released into the atmosphere by the firestorm, which “had the effect of ‘seeding’ the clouds”, causing a period of black rain for a few hours [7], considerable exacerbating the state of the targeted environment; marine life was killed and land animals that had survived suffered from diseases such as diarrhoea. [8]

Chemical spills and atomic bomb blasts have horrifying and widespread environmental consequences that are still being felt today. While there was much more to be said, both events resulted in the extinction of marine life. Perhaps, in the future, these impacts could provoke second thought before more acts of human carelessness and recklessness.

The twenty-first century is the era when populations of cities will exceed rural communities for the first time in human history. The population growth of cities in many countries, including those in transition from planned to market economies, is putting considerable strain on ecological and natural resources. This paper examines four central issues: (a) the challenges and opportunities presented through working in jurisdictions where there are no official or established methods in place to guide regional, ecological and landscape planning and design; (b) the experience of the author’s practice—Gillespies LLP—in addressing these challenges using techniques and methods inspired by McHarg in Design with Nature in the Russian Federation in the first decade of the twenty-first century; (c) the augmentation of methods derived from Design with Nature in reference to innovations in technology since its publication and the contribution that the art of landscape painters can make to landscape analysis and interpretation; and (d) the application of this experience to the international competition and colloquium for the expansion of Moscow. The text concludes with a comment on how the application of this learning and methodological development to landscape and ecological planning and design was judged to be a central tenant of the winning design. Finally, a concluding section reflects on lessons learned and conclusions drawn.

Announcing Winners of Peace Poster Competition

Press Release In Honor of UN International Day of Peace Announcing Winners of Peace Poster Competition September 21, 2022

At this critical moment in history, when peace, freedom, and democracy are under threat, U.S. Embassy Moscow is proud to honor the United Nations International Day of Peace with the announcement of the winners of the Imagining Peace poster competition. In the words of competition curator and judge Angelina Lippert, Chief Curator of Poster House in New York City, “Posters are the perfect medium to express succinct ideas in a rapidly changing world. Since the 1860s, every conflict has engendered a public facing poster response that calls for peace, resolution, or an end to injustice and violence.”

This competition brought together artists from all over the world to celebrate the fundamental human right of peace by reimagining it and sharing their vision. In their creative depictions, we recognize the hunger for harmony, mutual understanding, and an end to hostilities that continue to bring senseless death and destruction to innocent people. We congratulate all the artists who contributed their Imagining Peace designs to illustrate the singular significance of peace as a basic human right. As former U.S. Ambassador to Russia, John J. Sullivan, expressed: “It has long been a U.S. policy priority to advocate for and advance peace in the world. Now more than ever is a critical moment to strengthen our commitment to those ideals, and to safeguard peace, stability, and prosperity.”

A special congratulations to the winners from the United States, North Macedonia, and Russia, whose poster designs have won the top prize of the opportunity to travel to New York City and Washington, D.C., to discuss their work with U.S. cultural leaders. Their entries, and those of all who submitted artwork, give us continued hope that people from across the globe are joined together by a desire to live in peace, and that we can realize this goal when we work together toward this common vision. Let us take today to remember the fundamentality of peace and continue our collective endeavor to achieve it in every corner of the world.

In October, we will exhibit winning designs with selected submissions at U.S. Embassy Moscow. You may also view the competition’s artwork on U.S. Embassy Moscow social media platforms, the U .S. Embassy Moscow website, and at the competition website: https://www.imaginingpeace2022.org/exhibition/ .

Two Biryulyovskaya Line Metro Stations

The Architectural Appearance Of Two New Moscow Metro Stations Will Be Selected In An Open International Competition

Location: Ostrov Mechty metro station and Zagorye metro station, Biryulyovskaya line, Mosocw

Two New Moscow Metro Station Buildings

The Open International Competition began on March 17, 2022. It is aimed at developing the architectural appearance of the Ostrov Mechty and Zagorye metro stations of the Biryulyovskaya line. The goal of the competition is to find the optimal architectural and artistic designs for the passenger zones and entrance halls of the stations. The closing date for competition applications is April 28, 2022.

The competition is being held with support from the Moscow government and Sergey Kuznetsov, the chief architect of Moscow. The competition is organized by the Mosinzhproekt Group of Companies, the main designer and general contractor of Moscow metro development programs. Agency for Strategic Development CENTER is the operator of the competition.

The quality and feasibility of the projects will be assessed by a professional jury chaired by Andrey Bochkaryov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow in the Moscow Government for Urban Planning Policy and Construction. The jury also includes Sergey Kuznetsov, Chief Architect of Moscow, Yuri Kravtsov, CEO of Mosinzhproekt JSC, Viktor Kozlovskiy, Head of the Moscow Metro, as well as leading Russian and foreign specialists in architecture, design, and urban planning.

Andrey Bochkaryov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow in Urban Planning and Construction, considers the construction of the Biryulevskaya line one of the most important transport projects in the capital. It will bring the metro to the Biryulyovo Zapadnoye and Biryulyovo Vostochnoye districts «The new line will improve transport services in the south of the capital, including the rapidly developing areas of ZIL and Nagatinskiy Zaton, as well as the renovation neighborhoods under construction. The plan is to remove load from the central sections of the Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya and Zamoskvoretskaya lines, reducing traffic intensity and improving the environmental situation in the areas», said Andrey Bochkarev, «At the same time, in developing the metro network, we strive to create an individual interior for each station, in line with the traditions of Moscow Metro construction».

Sergey Kuznetsov, Chief Architect of Moscow and Deputy President of the Jury, said that since 2012, the Moscow City Architecture Committee has already held more than 100 competitions, including metro development projects. At all times and in all circumstances, our primary objective is to pursue architectural standards of the highest quality, and competitions are a versatile tool for this. The Moscow Metro directly reflects the modern era. Turning points in history create not just masterpieces, but new directions in art and culture. For all artists, which architects certainly are, this is an invaluable experience and opportunity. I emphasize that we are open to working with international teams.

Yuri Kravtsov, General Director of Mosinzhproekt JSC, noted that the current Open Competition for the development of architectural designs for metro stations is the sixth one organized by Mosinzhproekt. «Thanks to previous competitions starting in 2014, we have developed unique designs for 11 metro stations. Four of them are already open to passengers. These are Solntsevo and Novoperedelkino stations of the Solntsevskaya line, opened in 2018, and Mnyovniki and Terekhovo stations of the Bolshaya Koltsevaya line, which opened in 2021. By the end of the year, we will have completed the construction of several more stations on the Bolshaya Koltsevaya line», he said. Kravtsov noted that the construction of the Biryulyovskaya line, a new 21 km long radial line of the Moscow metro with 10 stations, is another significant project for Moscow’s transport infrastructure. «We will be using modern construction materials and powerful equipment in the construction, in particular, tunnel boring machines with a diameter of 10 meters. Our purpose is to link this project with the current urban environment using digital technology», he concluded.

The practice of holding professional competitions for the development of the architectural and artistic look of Moscow metro stations was revived in 2014 on the initiative of Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin.

The international competition for the development of the architectural appearance of two Moscow metro stations is open to Russian and foreign architectural bureaus (with a Russian representative office or in consortium with a Russian partner) that are able to attract designers, engineers, planners, and specialists in economics and financial modeling to their team.

To participate, it is necessary to complete an application form on the competition’s official website at https://designmetro.ru/ by April 28 and, in the first qualifying stage, to provide a portfolio of relevant projects and an essay describing the key ideas in the architectural and artistic design of the stations.

The proposed concepts for station design should be harmoniously combined with the current town-planning and cultural and historical context of their locations and be in line with the spirit of the times, technologically advanced, adapted to the movement of all population categories, and also be convenient from the point of view of navigation.

In August, the jury will decide on which projects to implement in the future.

About the competition sites:

Ostrov Mechty Metro Station Buildings

Ostrov Mechty is a future transfer station with Technopark station of the Zamoskvoretskaya line. The project includes an elevated walkway with travelators, two lobbies and exits to Prospect Andropova and the Ostrov Mechty Entertainment Park, as well as to existing and future residential, business, and public buildings and surface passenger transport stops. The station complex will be located on a section of the subsurface metro line.

The design calls for two single-track tunnels to approach the station, resulting in the station being designed with a single island transfer platform. Due to the depth of the access tunnels, the station and one lobby will be located predominately underground. The station’s other lobby will be above ground. The underground zone includes a pedestrian crossing, one lobby, and the passenger platform. The second, above-ground lobby will include an elevated walkway (bridge) to Technopark station, ventilation ducts, and stairways and elevators with entrance halls with access to the surface.

Zagorye Metro Station Building

Zagorye is a future station located along Lipetskaya Street. The station will have two lobbies, northern and southern. The southern concourse will have exits at the intersection of Lebedyanskaya Street and Lipetskaya Street. Both lobbies will have exits to Lipetskaya Street, which is adjacent to the Tsaritsyno natural-historical park. The station complex will be located on a section of the subsurface metro line.

According to the design, one dual-track tunnel will approach the station, resulting in the station being designed with two transfer platforms. Due to the depth of access tunnel, the whole station will be located underground. The underground zone will feature pedestrian crossings, lobbies, and the passenger platforms. Only the ventilation ducts and stairways/elevators with entrance halls will have access to the surface.
