Rethinking food systems to restore degraded lands A KAUST-led international team outlines in @Nature how to “bend the curve” of land degradation by 2050: - Restore half of degraded farmland and non-agricultural land - Reduce global food waste by 75% - Replace 70% of red meat with seafood and 10% of vegetables with seaweed These actions could feed a growing population while restoring ecosystems and keeping the climate in balance. 📰Read in KAUST Discovery: discovery.kaust.edu.sa/en/ar… 📰Read in Nature: doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-0… @ftmaestre @maestrelab @Prof_MFMcCabe @hylke_beck #EnvironmentalScienceandEngineering #LandRestoration #FoodSecurity #KAUSTResearch #Sustainability

Congratulations to BESE Research Scientist Dr. M. Saqib Nawaz! Dr. Nawaz, part of the DESAL Research Group at KAUST, has been honored at the Middle East WATER Awards 2025 for his innovative work in the field of Produced Water Treatment and Reuse. His award-winning contribution centers on the Forward Osmosis–Membrane Distillation (FO-MD) Hybrid System - a breakthrough in the reuse of produced water. This solution offers a sustainable path forward in one of the most pressing challenges of our time: water and energy resilience. We’re proud to see BESE research contributing to high-impact solutions in critical areas of global need. #KAUSTResearch #EnvironmentalScienceAndEngineering #WaterInnovation #Sustainability #WaterReuse #MembraneTechnology #ProducedWater #ForwardOsmosis #CleanWaterFuture
