Concerns over plastic waste has been growing from year to year. A world without plastic or synthetic organic polyme...

In 2017, a group of researchers from The University of Western Australia (News UWA, 2017), completed a four month research of shark - coral reef ecosystem within the marine ecosystem.

May 19, 2012. The last kick of the ball by Didier Drogba for Chelsea. The one name that all Chelsea fan will remember throughout the history of the club. The iconic striker that bagged goals after goals to eventually lead Chelsea into the climax which all the supporters refer as " That Night in Munich ". It was miraculous really.

Environmental issue is spiking up significantly the past couple of years. Environmental issue, indeed, is not only happening in big cities, but urban life arguably triggered one of the most significant damages to the environment for over the past decades. Environmental issues in big cities are in fact, complex and consist more than just one problem. Among those problems are bad air condition, water pollution, urban green space, fossil-fuel energy consumption, climate change etc. These all problem are linked to each other like a chain, and they are all in urgent needs of salvation. None of them can be solved without attempting to fix other ones. Over the years, environmental problem has grown into such complex and problematic issues, and often it feels like these are more likely to be an enigma. Despite the continuous attempt that we do to fix things up, those problems seemed to be just the tip of an iceberg. The whole picture of the problem is actually bigger that we might realise and...

Giorgio Armani and Antonio Conte. Two famous Italian, mention these names to Italian people and both will definitely ring a loud bell. Both lived in different eras and contribute in different worlds, but what do both have in common? Both are very good designers. Well, at least that's what Antonio referred when he was first asked what would he bring to Chelsea as a "new comer", whether he will use three in the back or the conventional four in the back, whether he will use one striker or two strikers. Grinned, he answered with a small laugh that a good manager should be like a tailor. They should know best what suit their team and be flexible in creating the "dress". Of course, being Italian, he would have known the like of Giorgio Armani as a famous Italian designer and being asked much further whether or not he sees himself as the Giorgio Armani of Football, he couldn't hold back his laugh and unable to answer. Chelsea is officially reclaimed the Throne o...
