[OCTOBER FREE REPORT] Climate doom, eco-anxiety, environment condemnation - these are few terms which are being increasingly used in today's world. These terms bring a sense of ruination. Being a climate activist, it is our job to be truthful in our reporting, but at the same time - not become to hopeless is also a part of the job description. Here is a list of a few top environmental stories from this year so far which brings a great sense of relief to those leading the fight against climate change. 1. Chile's Unusual 44th National Park Chile's Atacama Desert is the sunniest and driest place on Earth. But surprisingly, rare flowers have recently bloomed in this strange place following which the Chilean government has named this region 44th Natioal Park in order to protect this natural phenomenon. 2. UK's iconic chocolate is getting windowdressed with eco-freindly makeover After 86 years, Quality Street chocolates - UK's most iconic chocolates - will no loger be wrapped in plasic packaging and colourful foils. 3. Personhood status given to salt-water lagoon Spain makes history by giving personhood status to Europe's largest salt water lagoon - Mar Menor lagoon. The lagoon has suffered massive die-offs of marine life due to degradation caused by anthropological factors. 4. Denmark makes history by becoming the first country to pay for 'loss and damage' due to climate change In Septemer, Denmark became the first country to offer 'loss and damage compensation' for those in the mosts climate vulneragbe regions. “It is grossly unfair that the world's poorest should suffer the most from the consequences of climate change to which they have contributed the least,” Denmark’s development minister Flemming Møller Mortensen said when announcing the funds. He added that it was time for action, not just words. 5. Scientists say the hole in the ozone layer will close in the next 50 years In 1987, seven years after scientists discovered man-made chemicals were damaging the ozone layer, the Motreal Protocol was signed to try to curb the amount of harmful chemicals in the atmosphere. Fast forward to this day, scientists say it is a 'significant milestone' o the path of recovery.
