For the complete report, get in touch with us at: info@netscribes.com
Abstract:
Netscribes latest market research report titled Glass Market in India 2014 analyses how the glass industry in India is growing due to the dynamic effects of the real estate sector as well as the automotive sector. The glass industry can be divided into the following segments - container glass, flat glass and other types of glasses. Container glass has a higher market share compared to flat glass and other types of glass due to the high demand from the packaging sector. The flat glass market faces maximum demand from the construction sector. The glass manufacturers in India of laminated glass and solar glass are also witnessing a steady growth.
India is a net exporter of container glass and net importer of flat glass. The main drivers of this industry are the growing packaging industry and the rise in real estate sector. Rising price of raw materials and increasing usage of alternatives of glass are the major challenges that the glass companies in India are facing. The public players dominate the market with their widespread distribution network. Raising awareness about the various uses of glass and incorporation of product differentiation will boost the market.

Resource Efficiency - The new watchword of sustainabilityRamon Arratia
There’s a growing global consensus that we’re at a crossroads on the environment. Not only do we face the increasingly urgent challenge of climate change, but we are also witnessing unprecedented demands on energy and fuel, water and material resource scarcity, huge population and life expectancy growth, concerns about food security, and a growing consumerism in the East that is putting an added strain on the global store of raw materials.
Resource productivity improvements could satisfy nearly 30% of demand by 2030.
Recent rises in global GDP and inroads into tackling poverty have largely been achieved by increasing economic growth. But the resource- dependent models that have allowed this to happen can no longer be sustained. In the past, increases in productivity have often come through more efficient use of labour, but the opportunity for further gains here is limited. To continue to make progress we need to squeeze more out of the resources at our disposal.
‘Resource efficiency’ will become the new watchword of sustainability. Accenture and the World Economic Forum recently produced a report looking at how to make consumption more sustainable by decoupling growth from environmental impact. They suggested that $2 trillion manufacturers of products that worth of economic output could be at risk by 2030 if major global economies fail to respond to shortages in the supply of just one resource - iron (and, more importantly, the steel that comes from it). This demonstrates the scale of the challenge we are up against. Accenture and the WEF conclude that ‘the need for rapid action to shift towards a resource-efficient economy is high’ - and that despite some successes to date, ‘change is now. More positively, greater resource efficiency also creates a business opportunity; it improves productivity, reduces costs and enhances competitiveness. If companies are less dependent on the availability of certain raw materials, they are less vulnerable to supply fluctuations and hikes in prices. This in turn means they can offer customers a more reliable supply of their products.
GreenBiz 16 Workshop Slides: "Closing the Loop to Advance a New Economy"GreenBiz Group
Slides for "Closing the Loop to Advance a New Economy". With the take-make-waste linear model no longer viable, companies are actively pursuing alternative models such as the circular economy, which has captured the imagination of the private sector as a viable approach for decoupling economic growth from resource constraints. The circular economy, an industrial model that is restorative or regenerative by design and intent, aims to keep products, components, and materials at their highest utility at all times, and represents an opportunity worth in excess of $1 trillion for the global economy. In this session, we will explore how companies can leverage circular economy principles and best practices to help eliminate waste throughout the value chain and improve the bottom line.

The 10 Most Promising Clean Tech Startups In 2022 2.pdfSwiftnlift
Recycling is one of the best and most effective ways to keep the environment impregnable. Because only reusing can lower the amount of waste and save natural resources for the future. Less landfill trash can save air and water from pollution. Did you know – If we recycle one aluminum, we can be able to save enough energy to run a TV for 3 hours (Obviously depends on the energy consumption of your TV)? It might sound unbelievable but it’s true. This can give you an idea that how much energy can be saved if we take recycling seriously. Recycling will reduce the amount of landfill waste that is potentially hazardous to the environment. Recycled materials can be cheaper for manufacturers than virgin materials and this can help reduce the cost of those products.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
