A Small Start to Living in Harmony with Nature by grow X dignity

The current climate crisis - resulting from our longstanding poor stewardship and use-and-throw lifestyle - demands us to find a way to live sustainably, now. Sustainability is an integral part of YTL's business - and through this seminar, we can all play a part by learning to live in harmony with nature. Collectively, we can make a difference!
It starts at home, and it can be as simple as filling our house with some indoor plants. This seminar from grow X dignity will inspire us to live in harmony with nature - either with a quick start like growing a Pothos plant; or to embark on a more ambitious project of home aquaponics. Join us to lower our carbon footprint and ultimately reverse climate change.

Bamboo for a Radically Regenerative Built Environment by SEAD
11:55 AM
Bintang 7, Level 4, JW Marriott
Discover the potential and benefits of bamboo as a sustainable material for construction and design, as SEAD showcases bamboo structures that has been designed and built in various contexts.
The built environment has a predominantly extractive narrative - the more we build, the more we need to extract and diminish. Today, a paradigm shift is available at our doorsteps: a giant weed that grows even more tenacious when harvested the right way, can be turned into a hyper-carbon accumulator. And what if the more we build, the more degraded ecosystems stand a chance at being regenerated through community-based agroforestry?
Find out how bamboo can be the answer - join Lucas in his vision of creating a bamboo revolution that can transform the world.
The seminar is part of the Yellow House Rejuvenation Project, a fundraising CSR initiative by YTL Foundation and Yellow House - a social enterprise that empowers marginalised communities through tourism education. The project aims to transform an old building in Kuala Lumpur into a vibrant community hub that will host various programmes and activities for the urban poor. SEAD is collaborating with YTL Construction, the Design & Construction Partner on the project, to lend their expertise in the use of bamboo.
