SpaceX has just officially announced Starbase, Louisiana, a new $100+ billion spaceport in South Louisiana near Pecan Island.
Construction starts in 2027, with the first Starship launch from the new site planned for 2029.
Starbase, Louisiana will be built to support thousands of Starship flights a year. This self-sustaining spaceport will have propellant production, power generation, deep-water shipping capabilities, vehicle processing facilities, and an airport.
SpaceX is committed to investing at least $100 billion and creating more than 3,000 new jobs at Starbase, Louisana hiring heavily from nearby communities and utilizing Louisiana workers’ extensive experience of building complex infrastructure in their unique environment.
In Vermilion Parish, the shoreline is eroding between 3.3 and 23 feet per year. SpaceX is partnering with state and federal agencies to expand Louisiana’s Coastal Master Plan and Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act projects, including Gulf shoreline protection breakwaters designed to reduce wave energy and slow loss along the Gulf edge.

A traditional technique used by young shepherds of Ethiopia’s Banna tribe.
They use stilts to watch over their livestock in tall grass, move through wetland areas, and avoid snakes and predators like lions and leopards.
It requires strength, balance, and training from a young age.

One road. Two breathtaking landscapes.
In East China's #
Jiangxi# province, the Dahuchi section of the Yongwu Highway offers two stunning views. Each summer, rising waters from Poyang Lake transform it into a surreal "floating highway". As the water recedes, it reemerges as a scenic road winding through vast wetlands.

I forage along the tidal flats of Tiaozini, while waiting for the sea breeze to return.
With every rise and fall of the tide comes an endless “natural buffet,” and an ever-present cooling wind from the coast.
Don’t hide in air-conditioned rooms—come to the wetlands. Here, summer feels like it’s breathing.

A century as far as Ramsar sites are concerned!
Glad that the Jai Prakash Narayan Bird Sanctuary (Surha Tal) in Ballia, Uttar Pradesh has been designated as India’s 100th Ramsar site. This wetland is rich in avifaunal biodiversity, attracting several migratory and resident birds.
India’s unwavering commitment to protecting our natural surroundings and wetlands in particular is clearly reflected in this feat.
Over the years, efforts to conserve and rejuvenate wetlands have been strengthened through greater community participation, science, innovation and awareness initiatives. These endeavours are helping preserve biodiversity, secure ecological balance and create a greener future for coming generations.
