This document summarizes a study on future water availability and food security in the Nile Basin. Population growth is increasing food demand substantially by 2025. The study models three scenarios for meeting this demand: national priorities, upstream control, and basin cooperation. Basin cooperation through improved rainfed agriculture, irrigation, hydropower, and food trade could increase agricultural production by 38% and gross profits by $1154 million, better satisfying needs across the region. Stabilizing political relations and optimizing water allocation over space and time are keys to ensuring long-term food security for all Nile Basin countries.

This document summarizes findings from an OECD study on groundwater use policies in agriculture. It finds that groundwater irrigation accounts for 33% of total irrigated land and 56% of withdrawals in OECD countries. Intensive pumping can cause negative externalities like stream depletion, salinity, and land subsidence. Countries take diverse regulatory approaches from direct controls to economic instruments to collective management. Regions with less management experience higher groundwater use and stress. The study recommends a "tripod approach" for intensive use regions, involving entitlement systems, economic instruments, and collective management to move towards sustainability.
This superlative quiz was created by Natalia and Andrea. It contains two multiple choice questions about the smelliest frog and deepest ocean in the world. The skunk frog is identified as the smelliest and the Pacific is identified as the deepest ocean.
The document discusses the regulation of the drug sector in India. It outlines the key drug regulatory bodies in India, including the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) and the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA). It also describes the main drug laws governing the sector, such as the Drugs and Cosmetics Act of 1940. The document highlights recent regulatory initiatives to improve drug quality control and coordination between ministries.
This document provides an analysis of audience theories applied to scenes from Robbie Williams' music video for his song "Candy".
The opening scene introduces Robbie Williams' mysterious character wearing a pink suit to represent the song's theme. Subsequent scenes show Williams enduring injuries and pain to protect the object of his affection, Candice, who ignores him, linking to theories of idealized realities and psychological needs.
The closing scene portrays Williams' character engaging in increasingly reckless and aggressive behaviors as his desires and accidents synchronize with the intensifying music, exemplifying the struggle between basic needs and seeking love according to Maslow's hierarchy.
