Reuters’ Sustainable Switch newsletter highlights several climate and sustainability developments. The lead item is the Earth Prize 2026, which recognizes environmental projects by young people aged 13–19. Regional winners include Kenyan teens who designed a low-cost vehicle exhaust system using waste-based filters, an Irish student who created biodegradable plastic, Gaza-based sisters who turn rubble into reusable bricks, a Thai teen focused on forest seed dispersers, and Indian students who developed tamarind-seed powder to clump microplastics.
