As Southeast Asia’s capital cities continue to experience rapid urbanization and population growth, how much lush greenery still remains within these expanding urban landscapes?

Here’s a visualization showing how much of the capital cities are still covered with forests, grasslands, or with considerable vegetation as of 2025, based on the latest update from the Esri Sentinel-2 10m Land Use/Land Cover data.

Greenery coverage across the 10 ASEAN capital cities varies greatly. Naypyidaw and Vientiane remain among the greenest, while densely populated capitals such as Jakarta and #Manila are already heavily built up with buildings, roads, and other infrastructure.

Urban forests and vegetation play a crucial role in reducing heat, improving air quality, and protecting water resources, helping make cities more livable and resilient.

Long-term efforts, such as in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, to restore and expand green spaces are already delivering benefits to residents, from cooler surroundings to healthier urban environments. #urban #environment #ASEAN

In 2013, estimates suggested there were tens of millions of tonnes of plastic pollution in the world’s oceans. If current trends continue, some projections suggest that by 2050 plastic could outweigh fish in the oceans by mass

A Palestinian boy mourns his father, one of three people killed in an Israeli strike on a security post in Gaza.

The attack is part of ongoing Israeli violence, despite a fragile ceasefire, which has killed at least 846 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.

If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could eat, while most of the other monkeys starved, scientists would study that monkey to figure out what was wrong with it.

When humans do it, we put them on the cover of Forbes.

Sakan is a traditional Japanese plastering method that uses clay, sand, and straw over a bamboo lattice to create durable walls that naturally regulate humidity and stabilize indoor conditions.

We cannot stay silent.

Data centers are spreading across Malaysia without control.
Soon, they could use more electricity and water than all our homes combined.

To power them, we will need massive solar farms taking up huge land

And for what?
Very few jobs.

We give up our land, our energy, and our future
but get almost nothing in return.

This is not development. This is imbalance.

Malaysia must act now:
Set limits. Protect our land. Put people first.

Before it’s too late.
