      <image:caption>I recently visited WWF Hong Kong’s Wai Po Nature Reserve, a major conservation site sandwiched between two global cities, Hong Kong and Shenzhen. This 1,500-hectare plot of wetlands and gei wais (traditional tidal shrimp ponds) is a significant stopover site for migratory birds. It’s a home to 400 species—35 of which are endangered. The easiest thing you can do to care for nature is to learn about local solutions.

      <image:caption>Did you know there are fewer than 200 wild water buffaloes left here—and most of them were abandoned when the farmland disappeared? Water buffaloes are ecosystem engineers: Their wallowing and trampling create habitats for fish and birds. Their grazing helps with vegetation control. They also have a mutualistic relationship with Hong Kong’s rare cattle egrets, which depend on them to survive. Although the world they were built for is long gone, they’re still showing up and doing the work to give us a thriving ecosystem today.  Watch the full video on Instagram →</image:caption>

      <image:title>Explore - From Hong Kong to Chinatown: What Menus Reveal about Food, Culture, and the History of Chinese Immigration - One dish, Chop Suey, is especially emblematic of this adaptation and attempts at cultural survival. Translated into Chinese as “mixed bits”, chop suey is a uniquely American dish that combines meat, eggs, and vegetables and is served with stir-fried noodles or rice. While it doesn’t exist in China, it was created as a dish to be familiar and comfortable enough for Americans to enjoy.</image:title>
      <image:caption>As the first point of entry for most Americans to appreciate Chinese culture, Americanized Chinese food represents a means of survival. The most successful Chinese restaurants were not the ones that offered the most "authentic” food, but the ones that provided the best renditions of Americanized Chinese food catered to Western tastebuds. Chinese food has become most popular when completely separated from Chinese culture and people, and it is continuously used as a strategic tool to fight exclusion and preserve the Chinese legacy. It represents a source of survival and resistance that carries on from the diaspora’s legacy of exclusion and remains an important cultural centerpiece today.

      <image:title>Explore - From Hong Kong to Chinatown: What Menus Reveal about Food, Culture, and the History of Chinese Immigration</image:title>
      <image:caption>Chinatown as a site of cultural preservation Today, Chinatown remains an important enclave for Chinese people in American cities, honouring their fight for survival and resistance. Chinatowns are viewed as “communities of resilience” that reveal histories of identity as a nation and provide a site of belonging and connection for people who may otherwise feel excluded. However, these communities are also suffering from rapid gentrification, with displacement by commercial developers becoming an increasingly frequent occurrence. Moreover, the prevalence of xenophobia and Asian hate crimes exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic has increased segregation and even micro-segregation between Chinese residents and newer populations in the neighbourhood. One prime example that illustrates the hardships faced by Chinatown is the case of Washington, D.C. Founded in the 19th century, D.C.’s Chinatown has been described as “dead Chinatown” due to the ongoing displacement of Chinese businesses and stores as a consequence of gentrification. As Chinatowns often share zip codes with high-income neighborhoods, it is also harder to qualify for loans through the Small Business Administration designed for those affected by economic injury. In losing these restaurants, Chinese communities lose access to an important part of their culture. Not only does protecting these places protect an important home for people, but it also preserves a part of culture that has shaped American identity for centuries.

      <image:title>Explore - From Hong Kong to Chinatown: What Menus Reveal about Food, Culture, and the History of Chinese Immigration - In Chinese culture, food is inextricably linked to community. A meal symbolizes harmony, and this shared experience is emblematic of a culture which prioritizes family and closeness. To us, enjoying food is enjoying our culture, and enjoying our culture means appreciating all that entails—including family, friendship, and love.</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is one reason why it is so important to support small local businesses—especially those that serve communities with a distinct culture and history. Supporting these businesses is a way to preserve the traditions and culture that are tied to the place and honour the generational challenges faced to get to where they are. Beyond directly supporting these businesses, cultural preservation can also look like advocating for legislation that protects these businesses against the effects of rapid gentrification and a pandemic-induced economic crisis.

      <image:title>Explore - What Living in Three Continents Taught Me About Sustainability, Wellbeing, and Success - Jana and I converged serendipitously before the pandemic while individually backpacking Australia. Finally, I was close enough to pay a visit to her hometown, where we caught up over plates of topfenstrudel and marillenkuchen.</image:title>
      <image:caption>In discussing our lives, the topics of school and work inevitably came up. In discussing work life, she casually mentioned her schedule flexibility as Austria imposes mandatory breaks for all workers after six hours of work to ensure that employees are getting enough rest. Having grown up in the notorious work culture of Hong Kong, I was shocked. Originally in Europe to study Doughnut Economics in Amsterdam and attend the International Forum for Wellbeing in Grenoble, I was exploring ways that communities may achieve societal wellbeing. This conversation reminded me that the answer will not be found through novel economic frameworks; rather, it is deeply embedded in cultural norms and our relationships to work and rest.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Explore - What Living in Three Continents Taught Me About Sustainability, Wellbeing, and Success - Hong kong illustrates these shortfalls as an outlying case in the otherwise correlated relationship between money and happiness.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Upon returning to Hong Kong, I spoke to a friend who now works in the financial sector. She bemoaned her entry-level job, where she works 15 hours a day, with few breaks in between. While earning a generous salary, she has to sacrifice seeing friends and family and participating in any extracurriculars. On a macro level, Hong Kong maintains a relatively low Happiness Index score despite its relatively high GDP per capita—reflecting this disconnect and challenging the dominant narrative that economic growth always equates to greater wellbeing and success. While this source of unhappiness can be traced to political tensions and resulting challenges in Hong Kong, much of this disparity can also be linked to the workplace. In Hong Kong, people average over 41 hours per work week, with the practice of overworking both common and often expected. The emphasis on output and productivity, paired with the hierarchical nature of the workplace, makes it especially difficult for workers advocate for increased rest.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Explore - What Living in Three Continents Taught Me About Sustainability, Wellbeing, and Success - Contrastingly, Costa Rica (where I spent a semester studying abroad last Spring) has been consistently ranked as one of the happiest countries in the world—in spite of its lower GDP (ranked 84th in 2022).</image:title>
      <image:caption>Costa Rica has a reputation for being one of the “greenest” countries in the world. Interestingly, this can be attributed to the country’s abolishment of the military following a violent civil war in 1948. As a result, funds that would otherwise be used to sustain the army have been redirected towards social programming focused on education, healthcare, infrastructure, and the environment. Costa Rica has invested in education (96% literacy) as well as environmental preservation (25% of land at national parks or biological reserves) to promote values of peace and environmental sustainability in addition to supporting a productive workforce.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Explore - What Biking in Amsterdam Taught me about Social Progress - Despite having an incredibly challenging time keeping up with the Dutch—with no choice but to adapt to my too-tall bike and unfamiliar back pedal breaks, these bikes were integral to my experience for reasons more than one.</image:title>
      <image:caption>In Amsterdam, cyclists run the city. Cars and people yield to anyone riding a two-wheeled vehicle. Driving in the city is also extremely infuriating; you’ll make little to no progress as you’re constantly stalled by other commuters that are granted the right of way.  This bike culture, however, is symbolic of Amsterdam’s cultural norms, where both social and environmental sustainability are embedded into the city. Not only do bikes as the dominant form of transportation significantly minimize emissions, but a broader implication of this practice is also the impact it has on social progress and equity. Walking around the city, I observed the lack of variance among the design or models of the bikes. Many have been coated with a layer of rust, revealing the age and wear of the bikes. This is in contrast to the United States, where one’s “success” is often tied to the value of one’s prized possessions—namely, the automobile. In Amsterdam, bikes serve as an equalizer; their relative uniformity obscures any visible inequalities between communities. While this is not a solution to existing disparities, it contributes to the leveling of people. Rather than defining people based on material wealth, this basic form of transport eliminates class division based on the flashiness of objects that you possess. One of my most memorable moments in Amsterdam involves watching in awe as a lady casually biked past with a suitcase, speeding by as if it was an extension of her body. Similarly, when collecting food from a supermarket warehouse for a food market at de Kaskantine, we didn’t use a truck or container vehicle to store the produce. Instead, one volunteer attached a refrigerated trolley to his electric bike so that he could transport food as the Dutch do.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Explore - What Biking in Amsterdam Taught me about Social Progress - The people of Amsterdam have successfully built their lives around bikes, demonstrating culture's adaptability when presented as the norm. This shapes the experiences of individuals beginning from a young age, where children are able to develop a sense of independence by actively commuting on their own. And girls can commute without fretting about their safety.</image:title>
      <image:caption>There is a concept in urban planning known as “eyes on the street”, which suggests that neighbourhoods feel safer when residents' and shopkeepers’ eyes are drawn to the urban spaces around them. The low-rise buildings in Amsterdam, paired with the active movement of cyclists, allow for safer streets as well as a more engaged community.  When your roads are filled with people in cars, each family or individual is isolated within a bubble of bypassers. When your roads are paved with pedestrian paths and bike lanes, you create an environment conducive to community and friends.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Explore - Culture, Consumerism, and Climate Change: 10 Things I Learnt from Living Out of My Backpack for 85 Days - 1. The two are far more interconnected than I’d ever considered.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Although most of the things I listed above were simply out of necessity that the form of travel I was embarking on (device-free, challenging, encouraging you to become a ‘traveler’ rather than a ‘tourist’) entailed, many of these habits were also born out of an attempt to imitate another culture. In psychology class last year, I learnt about a social organization framework that distinguishes cultures from being either individualist or collectivist structures. In contrast to Western ideals which are predominantly individualistic, community, unity, and selflessness are cornerstones of Nepalese culture. As a result, instead of prioritizing individual goals and wellbeing over the benefit of the greater good, they emphasize a commitment to familial values and community-oriented aspirations. Individualism thrives off competition in a manner than drives the depletion of resources at a rate that the world can hardly sustain. As the world’s biggest capitalistic power, cultures like the U.S. have ended up conflating success with wealth, and the race for profit consequently becomes a rush to extinction—with the accompanying cost of environmental destruction.

      <image:title>Explore - Culture, Consumerism, and Climate Change: 10 Things I Learnt from Living Out of My Backpack for 85 Days - In Nepal, the festival we celebrated (Tihar) was not mediated by physical (or non-consumable) gifts; instead, it involved a succession of dances and offerings to celebrate and maintain intimate relationships with humans, animals, and Gods alike. Sometimes, people would freely enter and exit the homes of their neighbours during the dance ceremonies, because everyone was considered to be family.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Consumerism makes us vulnerable to the misconception that economic growth is the solution to all problems, convincing us that meaning is something which can be bought. Living in a rural village for nine days, none of us had or needed a fridge. Most of us simply used buckets as showers. Yet I was eating some of the best food I’d ever tasted and taking some of the most appreciated showers.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The image on the left was captured from the kitchen of my homestay family’s house in Patan. My “morning routine” during this time consisted of: waking up and drinking chiyaa (tea) alongside my homestay parents and sisters. And my night routine involved journaling and reading. If only that was the norm; if only we haven’t internalized capitalism with the expectation that if we’re not constantly producing something or berate ourselves for taking a break almost to the point where we neglect our health—both physically and emotionally. If we don’t confront our unending desire for economic growth—a principle founded on the abundance of consumption—then we will never be able to address the looming issue of climate change. Because the two are inextricably linked. Image: View from the kitchen of my homestay in Patan, Nepal.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Explore - Culture, Consumerism, and Climate Change: 10 Things I Learnt from Living Out of My Backpack for 85 Days - One of my favourite things about travelling (especially when packing lightly) is how un-stigmatised it is to re-wear clothes. For three months in Nepal, I rotated between five different outfits, and never once did I ever feel “deprived.” Due to the transitory nature of fast fashion, it has been normalized to wear a new outfit to every occasion. But this expectation to wear something new or different every day is highly unrealistic, and we have to rethink the conversation on what kind of standard this sets—not just for the sake of environmental sustainability, but also because of the statement it implies towards the issue of classism.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Moreover, during our first trek, we had no mirrors for seventeen days. This meant we could abandon all self-doubt surrounding the notion of beauty, which was not only liberating, but also a jarring reminder of how much of our self-perception is determined by what common marketing has conditioned us to desire.</image:caption>
