Zero Carbon Resettlement
In Feb 2012, Hemispheres Foundation together with Hope Villages Fund initiated a zero carbon resettlement community in Kampong Speu Province, about 60km from Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Besides providing each of these newly resettled homeless family a house with basic facilities like toilet and well, we also introduced a bio-digester system for a clean sustaining living.
The bio-digester system converts human, animal and agriculture waste into natural gas for cooking and lighting and the solid waste into natural fertiliser. For a sustainable livelihood, basic education from pre-school education, English, vocational skills, natural farming techniques, financial management to personal hygiene will also be introduced.
Project Clean Water
For many of us, water simply flows from a faucet, and we think little about it beyond this point of contact. We have lost our sense of respect for water.
More than 1 in 6 people in the world don’t have access to safe drinking water. Out of every 4 deaths under the age of 5 world-wide is due to a water-related disease. Nearly 80% of illnesses in developing countries are linked to poor water and sanitation conditions.
Clean water doesn’t just save lives, it changes them. Lend a hand in Hemispheres Project Clean Water for it is in the giving that one receives.
