Making blended finance work for water and sanitation green talks webinar
Water-related investments are key for sustainable development and inclusive growth. Blended finance can play a critical role in mobilising commercial finance and strengthening the financing systems on which water-related investments rely on. Water flows as a prerequisite through every one of the sustainable development goals (SDGs), especially those on food security, healthy lives, energy, sustainable cities and marine and terrestrial ecosystems.
We need a water low-carbon resilient infrastructure. Delivering these environmental ambitions will require historic scaling of financing on water related investments. These requires using existing sources of finance more strategically.
On 9 Sept 2019, Kathleen Dominique of the Environment Directorate OECD and Wiebke Bartz-Zuccala of the Development Co-operation Directorate OECD, discussed ongoing OECD work on blended finance and what has worked in the past as well as the potential to scale up blended finance approaches to apply to a broader range of investment types and contexts.

The Dartmouth Green Revolving Fund
An innovative approach for funding sustainable initiatives at Dartmouth. Presented to Matariki Network of Universities Conference in Kingstron, Ontario November 2010.
Summary of Theme 1 Outcomes
1. The document discusses the need for more effective policies and incentives around sustainable and efficient water allocation and management in India. It notes the rising stress on water resources and the inequalities created by current water policies.
2. It proposes a shift towards incentives that focus on farm-level technologies and practices rather than input-based subsidies. New incentive instruments are needed to efficiently support water use and dryland agriculture.
3. Key recommendations include equipping small farmers with resources to adopt water-saving technologies, increasing investment in water infrastructure, establishing cost-recovery water tariffs, and designing incentives around sustainable technologies and practices.
2 Jonny Hughes International Perspective
This document discusses nature-based solutions for water management. It argues that investing in river basin natural capital can provide ecosystem services and a return on investment. However, the business case and financing mechanisms for such nature-based water solutions need to be clearly demonstrated and sustainable over the long term.

Presented by Douglas J. Merrey and Tadele Gebreselassie at the NBDC Stakeholder Forum, Bahir Dar, Ethiopia, 5 October 2011.Challenges for the Conference:A World Bank Perspective
The document discusses challenges for international cooperation on transboundary waters from the perspective of the World Bank. It summarizes the World Bank's international waters portfolio and how projects fit into its country programs. It then discusses issues like environmental degradation, infrastructure expansion, data gaps, and financing that projects have tried to address through frameworks for cooperation. However, it notes there are also barriers like differences between countries, lack of capacity and governance, and short-term priorities that can constrain cooperation. It questions if the approach can work and discusses constraints the Global Environment Facility may be ignoring, like lack of country commitment and high transaction costs.
Pathway to Sustainable Waste Management
Mitch Kessler of Kessler Consulting gave a presentation on sustainable waste management at the 2014 FL APWA Conference. He defined sustainable waste management as maximizing recycling and composting through downstream resource recovery, extending product longevity through reuse and repair, and reducing waste upstream through product redesign and producer responsibility. Kessler outlined the necessary elements for sustainable waste management as developing policies to support diversion programs, implementing programs like single-stream recycling and organics composting, building the required facilities for processing recyclables and organics, and establishing alternative funding sources since disposal-based funding can no longer be the primary model. He concluded that jurisdictions must understand their waste streams, target specific programs and policies for maximum diversion, identify the right

This document discusses Coca-Cola's global water stewardship strategic framework. It notes that water is the biggest part of Coca-Cola's supply chain and is under growing stress. The framework focuses on reducing water use through efficiency and reuse, recycling wastewater, and replenishing water to communities and nature. Coca-Cola has invested over $1 billion in wastewater treatment and replenishes 68% of its production volume. The company aims to balance its consumptive water use and replenish 100% of production volume by 2020 through watershed protection projects. It also outlines potential replenishment activities and their impacts on water quantity and quality.
Designing redd+ projects johnp
This document discusses lessons learned from past integrated rural development programs, integrated conservation and development projects, landscape-level projects, and global health initiatives that can inform the design of REDD+ projects. Key lessons include: projects need to be carefully phased, start simply, and build local capacity gradually; conservation objectives often had tenuous links to development goals and were difficult to measure; and working at multiple scales, strengthening policies and capacity, and ensuring local participation are important for long-term success. Recurring themes across different program types are the need for adequate timeframes, funding, and capacity building at multiple levels.
GWP Global Strategy, presentation
The document presents the Global Water Partnership's (GWP) global strategy for 2009-2013. The vision is a water secure world with equitable access to water resources and improved quality of life.

The document summarizes the agenda for a regional water planning conference in Georgia. It discusses challenges facing Georgia's state water plan such as budget shortfalls and priorities around compliance, wet weather issues, and regional water planning. It also outlines the activities of regional water councils from 2009 to 2011, which included organizing, assessments, management practices, and drafting regional water plans. Likely recommendations from the councils include additional water supplies, structural solutions, conservation ordinances, education, and further research.
Wider Approach to Incentives for Water Management
Steven N. Schonberger discusses broadening approaches to incentives for sustainable and efficient water management. Incentives have been used for millennia to manage shared water resources and avoid conflicts. Now, incentives come from many interconnected sectors and issues like macroeconomic concerns, the water-energy nexus, and food security policies. A comprehensive approach is needed that addresses scarcity of water, organizational capacity, and accountability in water management through decentralized management, new technologies, and policies that share responsibilities. The ultimate incentive is recognizing that the Earth has limited resources and must be cared for sustainably.

Advancing sustainability of WASH services within USAID
The document summarizes lessons learned from using the Sustainability Check tool to evaluate WASH services programs in Ghana, the Philippines, and the Dominican Republic. It found the greatest challenges to sustainability were financial management and decentralized capacity for long-term support. It also discusses USAID's commitment to sustainability through partnerships with local organizations and long-term monitoring of impacts. Next steps include refining and disseminating the Sustainability Check methodology, incorporating it into guidance, applying it to more programs, and focusing on capacity building, local ownership, sanitation/hygiene, and decentralizing resources.

This document summarizes a conference on climate change adaptation, food security, and population dynamics in South Asia. It notes that the region faces significant water challenges including climate change impacts, water-related disasters, transboundary water issues, and food insecurity. Observed changes include increasing temperatures, changes to monsoon patterns, more extreme events like floods and droughts, and glacial melting. Projections include changes in precipitation and runoff that vary by location. Adaptation is needed in water and agriculture sectors, through improved cooperation, capacity building, research, and interventions like rainwater harvesting. Regional cooperation on data sharing, early warning systems, and transboundary waters is important given the regions shared river basins.Ania Grobicki's GWP Strategy Presentation, Tokyo 21 March 2014

This document provides a history of mining and mechanization in New South Wales from 1890 to 2015. It describes the slow initial progress of mechanization from 1890 to 1925, with the first coal cutting machine installed in 1890. Mechanization increased from 1925 to 1946, with the first mobile coal loading machine in 1935, though most coal remained cut and loaded by hand. The Coal Industry Act of 1946 established regulations to encourage mechanization and increase coal production. By 1950, the first continuous miner was introduced, and mechanization increased steadily through the 1950s and 1960s to become the dominant method of coal extraction, replacing manual cutting and loading. Modern longwall mining became established from the 1980s onward. The document also discusses the relevant legislation

The national ecosystem approach toolkit7jan
This document provides guidance on using an ecosystem approach to decision making. It outlines 12 principles for an ecosystem approach, including considering adjacent effects, managing systems for multiple benefits, and involving all relevant sectors of society. It then discusses how to apply these principles through tools like ecosystem service valuation, regulatory mechanisms, incentives, partnerships, and case studies. The key messages are to work across natural and built environments, develop effective partnerships, frame decisions around multiple benefits, collectively apply ecosystem approach principles, and learn through experience.
2. Integrated Catchment Management - Vision
This presentation was given as part of the EPA-funded Catchment Science and Management Course focusing on Integrated Catchment Management, held in June 2015. This course was delivered by RPS Consultants. If you have any queries or comments, or wish to use the material in this presentation, please contact catchments@epa.ie
It is increasingly being recognised internationally that integrated catchment management (ICM) is a useful organising framework for tackling the ongoing challenge of balancing sustainable use and development of our natural resource, against achieving environmental goals. The basic principles of ICM (Williams, 2012) are to:
• Take a holistic and integrated approach to the management of land, biodiversity, water and community resources at the water catchment scale;
• Involve communities in planning and managing their landscapes; and
• Find a balance between resource use and resource conservation
ICM is now well established in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. In Europe the ICM approach has been proposed as being required to achieve effective water and catchment management, and is the approach being promoted by DEFRA for the UK, where it is called the “Catchment Based Approach” (CaBA). The principles and methodologies behind ICM sit well within the context of the Water Framework Directive with its aims and objectives for good water quality, sustainable development and public participation in water resource management. In Ireland it is proposed that the ICM approach will underlie the work and philosophy in developing and implementing future River Basin Management Plans.
HOPE Community Services June 15 Meeting
The document summarizes a meeting of the HOPE Community Services Governing Board. It discusses HOPE's mission to promote programs aimed at alleviating poverty conditions. It then reviews HOPE's performance in serving member counties and achieving goals. Many of HOPE's programs have been eliminated, including Head Start, energy assistance programs, homeless prevention programs, and others. The document identifies issues like lack of transparency, staffing problems, and lack of program approval and funding that contributed to the losses. It outlines recommendations for the board like a vote of no confidence in leadership, expanding board membership, and implementing stricter oversight and new leadership to potentially save the Community Action designation.
Mainstreaming the Ecosystem Approach in Local Plans
This document discusses using an ecosystem approach in local planning. It outlines that nature is often ignored in planning in favor of economic growth. An ecosystem approach frames nature as an asset providing benefits. The ecosystem approach promotes integrated management of land, water, and living resources for conservation and sustainable use. The document provides examples of how planning can integrate ecosystem principles through tools like green infrastructure, biodiversity offsetting, and payments for ecosystem services. Partnerships are key to delivering plans that use an ecosystem approach.

Natural Resource Planning
Natural resource planning is becoming increasingly important for utilities. In addition to social pressures for more sustainable business practices, it is an essential element of obtaining licenses for electric, hydroelectric, and transmission operations.
Proactive natural resource planning helps address a number of challenges facing utilities today including: increased environmental pressures, licensing requirements, relationships with external stakeholders, costs, and public goodwill. In this document, ScottMadden presents a brief overview of creating a natural resource plan using a structured process, standardized tools, defined decision rights, specific criteria, and analysis so companies can stay ahead of the curve.

Achieving Net Positive Impacts for Biodiversity Through the Mitigation Hierar...Institute of the Environment
This document discusses achieving no net loss or net positive impacts for biodiversity through implementing the mitigation hierarchy. It notes that while investments in development are growing, existing environmental processes do not ensure no net loss of biodiversity. The mitigation hierarchy of avoidance, minimization, restoration, and offsetting can help achieve net positive impacts if offsets provide measurable conservation outcomes to compensate for remaining impacts after prevention and mitigation. The document also discusses challenges and opportunities for different stakeholders like governments, companies, and financial institutions to work together to progress beyond compliance and adequately protect biodiversity.Preparing for Long Term Stewardship
This document discusses two approaches for improving long-term stewardship of conserved lands in Illinois. The first approach is to establish regional stewardship partnerships across the state based on the collective impact model. This would formalize existing informal networks and provide a paid coordinator in each region to facilitate partnerships and technical expertise. The second approach is to create a nonprofit agricultural cooperative to purchase and manage farmland as an endowment. Income from sustainably managed farmland would grow over time to fund stewardship activities. The document outlines implementation plans and next steps to pilot these dual approaches to address barriers like reliable long-term funding and increased capacity for land trusts.

2015 Fall Conference: Event Recycling-RAGBRAI
This document discusses the author's efforts to promote recycling along the RAGBRAI bicycle route. It describes how as a high school student, the author reached out to RAGBRAI organizers about poor recycling. Over several years, the author rated recycling efforts in towns, identified successes and failures, and created tip sheets to help towns improve. Key lessons included making sure recycling bins are clearly labeled from all sides and placed next to trash bins. Creative bin designs like cardboard boxes and bins with holes cut in the top worked particularly well. Eastern Iowa towns generally recycled more than those in Western Iowa.
Fall Conference 2015: Master Planning-Ayres Associates
The document provides a master plan for Site 1, a closed landfill and active composting/recycling facility in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The plan aims to improve operations, maintain service during construction, develop the closed landfill, and provide public access to the landfill cap. It identifies challenges with traffic, facilities, and public access. The master plan proposes separate traffic flows, new buildings, and trails/overlooks on the landfill cap to meet goals of improving operations, maintaining service, exploring development options, and providing public access. Construction will occur in phases to maintain current operations.
2015 Fall Conference: Avian Influenza-IDNR
The 2015 HPAI outbreak in Iowa impacted over 34 million birds across 18 counties. 77 poultry sites were infected, including the euthanization of 24.7 million egg-laying chickens and 1.1 million turkeys. Nationally, the outbreak resulted in the depopulation of over 49 million birds across 21 states. The response involved coordination between federal, state, and local agencies. Disposal methods included composting, on-site burial, incineration, and landfilling. Composting was widely used but other options like incineration faced challenges. The outbreak highlighted the need for faster depopulation and disposal in future responses.

2015 Spring Conference: Implementation of Core Assessment
A study was conducted at a waste authority site over 3-4 days to evaluate operations. The document discusses differences of opinion on equipment utilization and operations identified from the study. An implementation plan was developed to focus on high impact changes with minimal effort, including installing a spotter station, reducing the loader fleet, downsizing dozers, and changing rubble and soil management practices. These changes could save $0.49-$1.49 per ton and increase landfill capacity and lifespan. A second phase of changes with higher effort is proposed to further improve operations and savings through updated planning, performance tracking, and equipment investments.
2015 ISOSWO APWA Spring Conference: Landfill Fires 7
The document discusses the importance of communication for managing incidents, including establishing off-site and on-site communications. Off-site communication involves managing public relations and working with the press from an Incident Command Post located a safe distance from the incident. On-site communication requires establishing communication between responding resources like firefighters and heavy equipment operators. The document recommends using an Incident Action Plan to facilitate incident briefing, objectives, organization, and communications. It stresses the importance of pre-planning, training personnel on waste fire issues, understanding available resources and hazards, and using an Incident Command System to effectively respond to incidents.
2015 ISOSWO APWA Spring Conference: Landfill Fires 6
This document discusses environmental suppression and its impacts when fighting landfill fires. It notes that suppression efforts can overwhelm leachate collection systems and cause runoff and slope instability issues. Large amounts of water used for suppression, like in the case study of a dump fire in Asia, can result in massive slope failures. The document also discusses using foams to aid suppression efforts while minimizing environmental impacts, as foams reduce water's surface tension to better penetrate materials. However, some foams can be toxic, so an understanding of foam toxicity and approved varieties is important when selecting suppression methods for landfill fires.
2015 ISOSWO APWA Spring Conference: Landfill Fires 5
The document provides operational examples and insights from responding to a landfill fire in Panama. It discusses establishing safety protocols like LCES (Lookouts, Communications, Escape Routes, Safety Zones) and health and safety plans. It emphasizes using appropriate respiratory protection like SCBA in smoke areas, and how portable monitors can help delineate work zones. Overall it stresses the importance of pre-planning, managing resources effectively, and protecting personnel health when responding to landfill fires.
2015 ISOSWO APWA Spring Conference: Landfill Fires 4
This document discusses various suppression tactics for landfill fires, including: covering fires with soil; excavating and foaming fires from 1-30 feet deep; injecting inert gases like CO2 or water; flooding areas; letting fires burn; and accelerating fires. Excavation works well on subsurface fires from 1-30 feet deep. Overhaul of suppression efforts can be costly and time-consuming and must account for used suppression water. Reading smoke can help determine the stage and location of fires. The top four issues with waste fires are typically a lack of pre-planning, inadequate water supply and equipment, poor command and communications, and health and safety concerns.
2015 ISOSWO APWA Spring Conference: Landfill Fires 3
This document discusses health and safety considerations for responding to fires at landfills and waste facilities. It outlines several hazards including dangerous gases, exposures to contaminants, falls, and equipment. It emphasizes having a thorough health and safety plan and respiratory protection plan to address these risks. It also provides examples of injuries that have occurred at waste fires and highlights the importance of facility awareness, air monitoring, and communicating risks to firefighters.

About Potato, The scientific name of the plant is Solanum tuberosum (L).
The potato is a starchy root vegetable native to the Americas that is consumed as a staple food in many parts of the world. Potatoes are tubers of the plant Solanum tuberosum, a perennial in the nightshade family Solanaceae. Wild potato species can be found from the southern United States to southern Chile
Synopsis (short abstract) In December 2023, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 30 May as the International Day of Potato.
Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
