The Environment
Oil is virtually associated with all spheres of modern society, including domestic and commercial heating as well as the transportation. At the same time, mostly negative impact on the environment that oil has, makes its production rather dangerous. It has been proved by lots of quality essays that oil is very toxic to almost all forms of life. Additionally, oil industry might cause changes in climate. However, regardless of all possible negative consequences, the mankind continues oil production. On April 15, 2010, an explosion damaged an oil platform Deepwater Horizon that was located forty miles from the Mississippi Delta. The platform was under the control of British Petroleum. Deepwater Horizon burned a day and a half and all attempts to extinguish the fire failed. Nobody knew the exact quantity of oil that was pouring forth into the Gulf of Mexico. Final figures were in the range between 50,000 and 60,000 barrels a day. In two weeks, the oil spill covered 3,850 square miles. Besides, there were reports of casualties. Eleven workers were presumed dead, while most of the platform workers escaped in lifeboats.

Mother of Mothers
Many of us know her as Mother Nature or Mother Earth, whichever name we call her by, it is undeniable the lessons she has imparted to us, her children. An impact she has on me every single day. She is the woman who keeps me in awe, who keeps me aligned and more in love with myself.

A Woman Who Inspires
When we think of an inspirational woman, we think of a woman who has accomplished something great. Whether it’s; overcoming a challenging obstacle,making sacrifices, or simply being able to endure adversity. Yes! All of that is truly inspirational. The woman that inspires me is a woman who has accomplished something that has never been done before. She has the strength of 1000 armies and more beauty than “Miss World 2019” beauty pageant.

The Issue of Climate Change during the CoVid-19 Crisis
Climate change is happening, no doubt about that. And the one main thing fueling it? Global Warming. Climate change is real, and has been confirmed multiple times, by different investigations. And yet, all that we have done so far, really, is to demonstrate, battle climate deniers, and talk.

Invisible City
With all the mysterious cities all over the world like Atlantis, El Dorado, Agartha, and many others. It is not surprising to have an additional invisible city that seems to be mythical in nature. Although the other cities may stay as a myth forever, the Biringan City in the Philippines can actually be the real deal.

Why corona is helping the earth
Social distancing is not only helping us stop the spread of corona but also the spread of CO2. Factories and traffic have been shut down in China and people all over the world are social distancing. Air traffic is at an all-time low and there have never been such empty streets before.

Is Glamping the Next Vision to Archigram’s Endeavour of a Technological Landscape?
Neo-Futuristic architecture is a style that has been debated since the late 20th to early 21st century on how it is becoming more and more relevant today. It brings architecture and technology together to often challenge traditional modernist methods and broaden architects to revaluate design conventions and steer towards a more Avant-Garde impression. This idea of neo-futurism was thoroughly investigated by British architectural firm Archigram, where they challenged the idea of rurality and Neo-futurism together many times. They illustrated how we should adopt nomadism again and create areas of landscape living where we keep our technological comforts. Considering this, in recent years a luxurious camping activity is emerging to do just this, where we indulge in both technology and rurality. In this article, I will explore Archigram’s efforts to sway architects to think of the future, I will see if ‘glamping’ is a new standout wave of neo-futurism and if both these innovative aspects of architecture correlate with each other and have the same vision.

What is happening to Italy?
Climate change has affected millions of people worldwide through air pollution suffocating some of the worlds highest income cities to typhoons that demolish lower income countries and their villages. No matter where, global warming doesn't discriminate but instead is a result of us as people dumping toxic waste into our rivers and our vigorous use of automobiles without a care or thought of the consequence. I've chosen to study the city of Venice in Italy and how climate change has affected and damaged the city.
