Ph.D. Biotechnology

Dr. Tarek Y. S. Kapiel is currently serving as the Rapporteur of the Committee on Arts, Social Sciences, Scientific Culture, Strategic Studies, Science and Technology Indicators at the Office of Technical Evaluation, Follow-up, and Performance Evaluation of the President of ASRT in Egypt. He holds the position of Emeritus Professor in Plant Biotechnology at the Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.
I am writing to express my strong commitment to contributing to your mission of accelerating transformative sustainability solutions during this critical decade. As a sustainability strategist with expertise in policy, technology, and cross-sector collaboration, I am drawn to your work addressing 2025’s defining challenges: geopolitical volatility, escalating climate impacts, and unprecedented opportunities for systems change.2025 demands immediate, coordinated action. Geopolitical disruptions—including U.S. climate policy uncertainty and pivotal elections in Germany, Canada, and Australia—threaten multilateral progress. Concurrently, climate disasters and biodiversity loss disproportionately impact vulnerable communities. These crises are exacerbated by: A $300B+ climate finance gap for Global South resilience;AI’s energy demands risking emissions surges; Corporate accountability gaps exposed by mandatory ESRS disclosures. Sustainability Global’s integrated approach is essential to counter fragmentation. I propose three pathways aligned with your 2025 priorities: Policy Innovation: Leverage subnational leadership (e.g., U.S. state-level IRA implementation) and launch "Town Hall COPs" to localize NDCs ahead of COP30. Advance debt-for-nature swaps to unlock $55B for emerging economies.Equitable Technology: Co-develop decentralized AI frameworks with Global South partners to cut compute needs by 40%, while scaling water-security innovations like closed-loop treatment systems.Corporate Transformation: Drive double materiality reporting (CSRD) with biodiversity metrics (Kunming-Montreal GBF) and accelerate circular economy pilots targeting $2.8T market growth by 2031.My work embodies the principle of meeting present needs without compromising future generations—ensuring outcomes are evidence-based (target: 40% emissions reduction by 2030), story-driven, and action-specific.Closing Sustainability Global is positioned to lead 2025’s decisive sustainability battles. I am eager to apply my expertise in policy, technology, and finance to support your COP30 mobilization and nature-positive innovation. I welcome a discussion on collaborating toward our shared vision.
