This document provides a summary of a report on protecting the environment through managing waste production and developing sustainable resources. It discusses how waste materials can be recycled and transformed into superorganic minerals to replenish the soil and protect the atmosphere. Implementing cooperative waste management systems across countries and utilizing recycled materials to create new resources could help reduce pollution and support continued economic development while preserving the environment.
IMPACT OF GLOBAL WARMING ON AQUATIC FLORA AND FAUNAMahendra Pal
A rise in temperature as small as 1° C could have important and rapid effects on the geographical distributions and mortality of some organisms. The more mobile species should be able to adjust their ranges over time, but less mobile and sedentary species may not.There are many factors that can cause a warming of our climate; for example, more energy from the sun, large natural events such as El Nino or an increased greenhouse effect. Rising temperatures can directly affect the metabolism, life cycle, and behaviour of marine species. For many species, temperature serves as a cue for reproduction. Clearly, changes in sea temperature could affect their successful breeding. The number of male and female offspring is determined by temperature for marine turtles, as well as some fish and copepods (tiny shrimp-like animals on which many other marine animals feed). Changing climate could therefore skew sex ratios and threaten population survival.
A 200-year-old tree that provided shade to the forest floor fell during a storm, causing changes to the ecosystem. More sunlight will now reach the forest floor, allowing seedlings that require sunlight to grow while shade-loving plants may not survive. The fallen tree also provides new habitat for animals like salamanders. The changes affect both plant and animal life in the forest ecosystem.
Global warming, greenhouse effect and climate changeFran Iantorno
The document discusses the greenhouse effect, global warming, and climate change. It makes three key points:
1) The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon that keeps the planet's temperature stable enough to support life by trapping heat in the atmosphere. However, global warming occurs when there is an imbalance of greenhouse gases due to human activity like increased CO2 emissions.
2) Global warming leads to climate change by causing the atmosphere to absorb more solar radiation instead of reflecting it into space, making the planet grow hotter over time. This disrupts ecosystems and environments.
3) To mitigate climate change, societies need to transition to green energies and reduce contaminating activities like deforestation and mining to balance greenhouse
The document discusses how climate change is affecting terrestrial ecosystems. It notes that temperature and precipitation determine the distribution of biomes, and that climate change is causing biomes to shift locations as conditions change. Forests currently occupy about one third of U.S. land but are predicted to migrate or shrink substantially due to warming temperatures and changing rainfall patterns. Grasslands are also expected to transition to deserts or shrublands in many areas.
This document summarizes key aspects of the environment. It defines environment and discusses its biotic components like plants, animals and microorganisms, and abiotic components like sunlight, water and air. It explains the interrelation between these components through food chains and how damaging one element can unbalance the entire ecosystem. It also covers issues like air and water pollution, deforestation, and the effect of habitat alteration. The document advocates for conservation of natural resources and planting trees to strive for a better environment.
BIOLOGY (Lesson Plan): Changes in ecosystems.Janice Fung
This document summarizes a biology class on changes in ecosystems. The 70-minute class covered topics including climate change, its 1°C impact on coral bleaching, and the role of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Students participated in an activity identifying primary changes to ecosystems from human and natural causes, such as invasive species, overfishing, and bushfires. They learned about primary and secondary ecological succession and how ecosystems rebuild with or without existing soil. The key ideas were that changes can occur regularly, sporadically, or from single events, and examples of human and naturally-caused changes were discussed.
The document discusses the tropical rainforest biome and the impacts of climate change. It defines tropical rainforests as having very high rainfall, high temperatures, and high biodiversity. Tropical rainforests play an important role in regulating the global climate through carbon storage, oxygen production, and influencing weather patterns. Climate change poses threats to tropical rainforests like rising sea levels which can flood coastal forests, and droughts which make forests more vulnerable to fires. The loss of tropical rainforests exacerbates climate change due to reduced carbon storage capacity.
Climate like any other physical phenomena it is dynamic and not static.
In every part of the world one year, one decade or one century is different than the other.
The change does not only have academic important but its effects in all the forms of life.
Plants, animals, human beings change with changes of climate.
In general, all living species thrive under definite and limit conditions and any great deviation from that will leads to destruction and death of the species.

Ecosystems can be classified in various ways based on their size and level of human interference. The biosphere is the largest ecosystem encompassing all others. Ecosystems also exist at the mega, marine, freshwater, semi-terrestrial, terrestrial, urban-industrial, macro, meso, and micro levels. Natural ecosystems are self-regulating without human interference, while artificial ecosystems are man-made like cities and croplands. Disturbances, whether abiotic like tsunamis or biotic like insects, disrupt ecosystems. Succession describes how communities change and recover after disturbances through primary succession in new areas and secondary succession in previously inhabited areas.

CO2 is a colorless gas that is 60% denser than air. It is composed of one carbon atom double bonded to two oxygen atoms. CO2 occurs naturally in small amounts in the atmosphere and is released from volcanoes. It dissolves easily in water and is found in oceans, lakes, and groundwater. CO2 levels have risen from 280 parts per million before the industrial revolution to 0.04% currently due mostly to fossil fuel combustion.
Carbon footprint refers to the total greenhouse gases produced directly and indirectly by human activities. One's carbon footprint includes emissions from transportation, housing, food consumption, and goods. A carbon footprint calculates all the carbon dioxide and other emissions from an individual or organization's activities.
The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth through greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide trapping heat in the atmosphere. However, human activities like burning fossil fuels have increased greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere, enhancing the greenhouse effect and contributing to global warming.
A habitat is the natural environment where a species lives and meets its needs for food, shelter, and reproduction. Habitats can change over time due to natural events or human activities like
The document summarizes the major compartments that make up the global ecosystem, including oceans, freshwaters, atmosphere, and land. It describes the flows of energy and materials between these compartments through biogeochemical cycles like the carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycles. Human activities are impacting these natural cycles and global climate through fossil fuel usage and increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
The document discusses the components of the environment. It is divided into three main sections:
1) The physical component includes abiotic factors like soil, air, water, climate and temperature that determine habitat conditions. It is divided into atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere.
2) The biological component contains all living things that interact with physical factors to form ecosystems. It includes producers, consumers and decomposers.
3) The social component consists of human and animal populations and their social structures and interactions. Humans are social animals that establish laws and policies for societies.

The greenhouse effect occurs when gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun, causing the surface temperature of the Earth to be warmer than it would be otherwise. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane absorb and emit infrared radiation, trapping heat and leading to global warming. Increased concentrations of greenhouse gases from human activities are amplifying the greenhouse effect and further warming the atmosphere and Earth. Solutions to prevent additional global warming include increasing the use of renewable energy, reforestation, and conservation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The document is about various topics related to the environment and Earth systems. It discusses the composition of the atmosphere and the important role it plays in sustaining life. It also describes the ozone layer and how it protects the surface from UV radiation. Additionally, it covers geological activity like plate tectonics and volcanoes. Biomes and biogeochemical cycles are defined. Wilderness areas and weather phenomena are also summarized. Ecosystems are described as natural units consisting of biotic and abiotic factors that interact within a defined area. Biodiversity can contribute to an ecosystem's resilience to change.
The document discusses the greenhouse effect and global warming. It explains that the greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon that is necessary to maintain temperatures on Earth but human activities are interfering with this effect by increasing greenhouse gases. This leads to global warming, raising the average surface temperature of the planet. The key greenhouse gas contributing to global warming is carbon dioxide and some of the risks of rising global temperatures include rising sea levels, more extreme weather events, changing wind patterns, and damage to coral reefs and agriculture.
The document discusses the impacts of climate change and strategies to address it. It notes that climate change is a global problem requiring international cooperation. The main greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change are identified. The document then discusses climate change scenarios and models, and the uncertainty inherent in projecting future climate conditions. It defines adaptation and mitigation strategies. Finally, specific actions that individuals and communities can take to reduce emissions and adapt to climate impacts are proposed. These include promoting cleaner fuels, reducing noise and air pollution, improving transportation systems, boosting energy efficiency, and changing behaviors.
This summary provides the key information from the document in 3 sentences:
The document summarizes the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, noting that it recognizes climate change as a problem, sets the objective of stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations to prevent dangerous interference with the climate system, and directs that this be achieved within a timeframe that allows ecosystems and food production to adapt while allowing sustainable economic development.

This document is a report submitted by a student for an assignment on sustainable urban planning. It discusses various mitigation and adaptation measures that could be taken to address rising sea levels in a coastal city. The report outlines strategies like promoting renewable energy (solar, wind, biomass, hydro), energy conservation, and adapting infrastructure to be more resilient to climate change impacts like sea level rise, stronger storms, and species migration. Implementing these solutions could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and protect the city from future climate risks.
Microclimates are local atmospheric conditions that differ from the surrounding areas, sometimes substantially. They can exist on scales as small as a few square meters in a garden or as large as many square kilometers. Because climate involves spatial and temporal variation, distinct microclimates can form and persist within a larger region. Microclimates are common and can be found in most places.
The document discusses several human activities that endanger ecosystems, including deforestation, burning, farming, industrialization, and urbanization. It provides details on the impacts of these activities, such as soil erosion, landslides, flash floods, pollution, and extinction of plant and animal species. The greenhouse effect is explained as a process where greenhouse gases in the atmosphere absorb and transfer heat energy, warming the planet's surface. Key figures in discovering the greenhouse effect are mentioned.
Nanomaterials have potential to help mitigate pollution and climate change through various applications. They can efficiently capture carbon dioxide from air and toxic pollutants from water, and degrade waste into useful products. Some examples include nano-scale CO2 harvesters that convert carbon dioxide into fuels and chemicals using sunlight, and highly permeable carbon capture membranes that more efficiently separate carbon dioxide from power plant exhaust. However, nanomaterials must become more economical and replace existing technologies completely to be fully implemented. Overall, continued research into novel graphene and biocatalytic nanomaterials may lead to more effective carbon capture and storage solutions.

Climate change and Architects role and resposibilitiesShereen Khashaba
Engineers and architects can play a role in addressing climate change through their design and construction of more sustainable buildings. Reducing fossil fuel usage and greenhouse gas emissions from the building sector is key as it is currently the largest contributor to carbon dioxide emissions in the US. Targets need to be set to reduce energy consumption from new and renovated buildings by at least 50% compared to current levels by 2030 through sustainable design and use of renewable energy. Aggressive implementation of more stringent building codes that meet these targets can significantly cut CO2 emissions and help address the climate crisis.
This is a detailed report on the topic of that how to remove the excess CO2 from our earth's atmosphere with the help of direct air carbon capture technology. How would it help us to mitigate the climate change.
Changes in the environment due to climate change are negatively impacting biodiversity. As the planet warms due to greenhouse gas emissions, species are becoming extinct or threatened. In the Arctic, loss of sea ice is eliminating habitats for species adapted to live on or under ice. Ocean warming is causing acidification, reducing calcium carbonate needed for shells. Climate change is also projected to cause the extinction of 20% of the world's lizard species by 2080. Monitoring of arthropods can provide early warnings of ecological changes due to impacts like decreased decomposition and increased herbivory.
Green House Effect : Global Warming & Climate ChangeKhulna University
The document discusses greenhouse gases and their role in global warming. It defines key terms like greenhouse, greenhouse effect, greenhouse gases, and climate change. It explains that greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane and water vapor trap heat in the atmosphere and cause the greenhouse effect, which is responsible for rising global temperatures and climate change. Without some greenhouse effect, the Earth would be too cold to support life, but excess greenhouse gases are warming the planet to dangerous levels.
Global warming is caused primarily by human activities that release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere. Burning fossil fuels for energy and transportation, as well as deforestation, are major contributors to increased CO2 levels and rising global temperatures. The impacts of global warming include rising sea levels, more extreme weather, worsening wildfires, and threats to food supply and habitats. Solutions require transitioning to renewable energy, improving energy efficiency, expanding forests, and developing new technologies to remove carbon from the atmosphere. Everyone must work to reduce, reuse, and recycle to lessen greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the effects of climate change.
Ecology is the study of interactions between living organisms and their environment. Key components of ecology include producers, consumers, decomposers and the biosphere. Ecology studies different levels of organization from populations and communities to ecosystems and the biosphere. Human activities directly and indirectly impact ecology through land use changes, agriculture, construction, pollution and more. Governments are taking actions to promote more environmentally friendly practices and mitigate human impacts on the environment.
This document provides information about the atmosphere and ozone layer. It begins by outlining syllabus objectives related to the ozone layer, greenhouse gases, and air pollution. It then defines the atmosphere and describes its composition. Subsequent sections explain how ozone is formed and maintained in the stratosphere, how CFCs deplete the ozone layer, and the environmental effects of ozone depletion. The document also discusses the importance of maintaining carbon dioxide levels and explains terms like the greenhouse effect.

CHINA’S GEO-ECONOMIC OUTREACH IN CENTRAL ASIAN COUNTRIES AND FUTURE PROSPECTjpsjournal1
The rivalry between prominent international actors for dominance over Central Asia's hydrocarbon
reserves and the ancient silk trade route, along with China's diplomatic endeavours in the area, has been
referred to as the "New Great Game." This research centres on the power struggle, considering
geopolitical, geostrategic, and geoeconomic variables. Topics including trade, political hegemony, oil
politics, and conventional and nontraditional security are all explored and explained by the researcher.
Using Mackinder's Heartland, Spykman Rimland, and Hegemonic Stability theories, examines China's role
in Central Asia. This study adheres to the empirical epistemological method and has taken care of
objectivity. This study analyze primary and secondary research documents critically to elaborate role of
china’s geo economic outreach in central Asian countries and its future prospect. China is thriving in trade,
pipeline politics, and winning states, according to this study, thanks to important instruments like the
Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative. According to this study,
China is seeing significant success in commerce, pipeline politics, and gaining influence on other
governments. This success may be attributed to the effective utilisation of key tools such as the Shanghai
Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

The CONSTRUCTIONAL LANDFORM is in progress to publish soon , This is about ENERGY according to a
four (4) system of the BIOSPHERE , The Cycle as it goes to present the natural geologic energy processes
INTRODUCTION :
Today we are writing employ in the whole world for a solution of environment protection telling what something
looks , effect , risk in dramatically result from your observation of the world around you.
The function interest is giving more of sufficient specified operation to neutralize the sourced had cost of material in
important consideration of proper design to recover much of a true environmental concerned.
Consequently,The other forms of information is quite efficient with some concept combining to a certain penetration
of expository (response point to practice exercise)
FUNCTION :
The power of a man to his ability is more greater than conscious minds to spend very little time and answer the
contribution to protect the mother earth.To illustrates this let us relate the three horizontal faculties to a one
intelligible environmental awareness.
The atmosphere its temperature is in the point which is a liquid changes to solid with so other equilibrium from the
matter of the physical state (vaporization).
The vaporization is a production of gaseous compound,and the constituent of atmosphere are : nitrogen , oxygen ,
argon , hydrogen including the carbon dioxide.And every prevailing air current compound is contain of complex
series of action,because today all of these role elements are innovative converting in artificial (atmospherical
invention) using of homogeneous objects of machinery like ACU air conditioning unit and RS refrigeration system
has producing of (N) nitrogen.
<These particular machine are today home ware and being living to us individuals.This is generating of flow rate
coldness evaporation by which balance of freezing point and boiling point of nitrogen atoms.
The carbon dioxide (Co2) is compound which retain its properties of chemical bonds that also combine to a
commercial gases to a form of devastated carbon emission and inducing of weathering effects to pollute of vapor
2. substance of the atmosphere.Usually the carbon dioxide protecting our plants to wither or wilt of its extrusion and
swollen the distillation of forest and mountains.
The soil climate and population (Soil Growth) are well known to farming development industries with so others
resourceful to pertain of fertilization have more sediment energy from the soil to flatten out in evenly areas of
biodegradable deposited organic materials.
In this economic integration . We are developing a lot of fructify products in the market Food Technology like
refreshing fruits, vegetables and fresh meat where meals serving in our precious dining tables, but the maturing
wealthy success of businesses is go beyond of natural processes of soil saturated compound. This particles formed
which all matter of biological composition of inorganic substance after when they are already blend to the area of
plantation in the most gracious harvest.
Many years passed. It was the energy is a natural streaming and gravitate our environment in a gently sustaining in
our communities and we had made of grateful time to imagine the world upon us, But today in the warmth of the
heat vaporization (Energy Gravitation) has left us companionship alter to obsolete concerned in our environments.
Some says: The technology evolution aim of logical consequences to pollute the environment and it is glowing to
forget the traditional fashion of a plain economic growth.
Actually, The technology narrative details altogether to show action as it occurs to develop some materials and ores
from the source heights of mountains , lake , forests into a period of mechanism.
On this cycle of development we are delivering much of capability and determine the productive merchandise to a
gainful and easiness way of livelihood through a substandard supports and operation. But more or less ,The
technology it’s classes define of expeditious method of economic development in the future.
The output system of its developing materials is sometime assumed of unsafe end to relinquish in our environment ,
For every materials that we are using most of waste and cannot be dissolved are reference to fixed point to changes
which is our collection of proper places of recycling
Upon it . The capacity of energy is absorbed, but handily to restrain of effects to design some parts of safety measure
to protect the environment.
Today’s environmental crisis is about the carbon emission that concentrating and re-radiation by which waves and
radiant energy to the endmost of Ozonesphere level and lengthen the source of heat in the second boiling point on
the grounds.
3. The effect is difficult in the ground most to the plants in causes of aridity of the soil having a serious drought and
dehydration for us human affected of bursting temperature of the sun that which a solid changes into a liquid formed
like an ice burg.
The composition or state of strain is in the ground disconformity and it leave us a ZONE OF FRACTURE , ZONE
OF WEATHERING , SOIL ARIDITY , SOIL ACCIDITY and were probably worry about the result with some of
our plantation ruptured because of the solar heat.For the most part while after this weather variation we are
surprisingly encountered of natural disaster like the wildfire.
This circumstance is happen when some extremely dry branch of woods , leaf , trees and kans grass is hit of the sun
prism and ignite to begin of broadly devastated fires in the forest or bushes. These things and were basically called
“Debris” is containing of sub-atomic particle of an atoms of gaseous compound (woody alcohols) and it will
generated to become a combustible substances. Today like everyone says; The sun distance through the earth is
getting closer and it giving us more changing difficulties about the climate.
DETERMINATION :
The average it is even known the gradation stablish . Is a necessary transition to covered the safety , production ,
sanitation , agriculture and construction , and the most important operation those industrialization and natural
resources of super-organic material of waste materials to a wholesome development of cityhood and re-forestation
of our environments.
The initial benefit of this program is controlled the waste production and the reduction of lode bodily
elements and reproduce of subtle recent material to another sustenance remarkable accomplishment.
Nowadays , The compelling problem of the world is how to allege environmental affair among countries affected of
catastrophe ,The salvation of the world must be stressed ,Not only do governments depend on atmospheric gases or
substances poison the environments ,But for ideas as well , The garbage is founded still on the arguments of
concluded results .
The production intensity of materials in our businesses today is increasingly terrible because of unfilled despite
through a impurturbable materials of recyclement, but for your information these waste materials even if it in the
commercial , residential or hazardous waste are, INBRED to changes in outward form of sphere minerals when they
are transfigure turn into a fine powdered .
This modes of industrial system of recyclement is more capable and uptrend for a new creation in the production of
large scale of manufacturing. And if we are imagine after the selection of garbages we have too many ways of
development. One of these is to re-creates some other material equality of commendation.
Behind the period when we are completed the pulverize system from recyclable materials. The method used in the
dissemination is regularly about to geologic formation and replacement deposits of minerals and it is purely
4. protection of the ground level surface crust thus which a minerals breaks when it does not yield along parting
surface.
The layers surface by spreading of super-organic grains mineral is a bedding initiation as a shield to the grounds and
it essential to enlarge some curative sap of organic substance of carbon and carbohydrates, But the resembling
stimulation of energy is to sustain of up-developing mineral that can be extracted profitably of its solidification.
The correlation of the soil between of congregated super-organic grains mineral is normally swallowing the carbon
dioxide (gaseous compound) it depend on the condition and temperature of waves bound. The carbon dioxide gases
layer is nearsighted altitude in 750 meters (32 above degree temperature). Nevermind the carbon emission in the
cities or atmospheric gaseous substances producing from mechanism, because according to carbon cycle the
movement of gravity of the earth is not constantly staying out in one directorate angles, and it is normally blend the
substance through a compound by a smog, and the atmosphere had a course of alphabetical layers and regions from
A-F through a region F of ionosphere about 25 to 220 miles altitudes including the layer in the upper atmosphere
(Ozonesphere) some 15 to 30 kilometers which most of the atmospheric ozone is concentrated and absorbing a large
proportion of the sun’s ultra violet radiation.
A closed system of absorbent temperature of the carbon dioxide is a cleansing in our air when it’s soaked to the
grounds and transferred of Protein molecular hydroxide and combining of fold parts of atoms to a form of a solid
ores and some particles of the soil with nitrogen and oxygen.
The weathering temperature taking place when it’s of changeable time between sunrise and sunsets (AM-PM) The
evaporation conversion energy are includes a smog and gaseous compound elements is in a state of the evening
about 8:00 – 4:00 before the sunrise that has all properties of gases affecting to the ground level and supporting our
plants , animals and other organism which is moisturization and condensation. The heat vaporization is happening
9:00 – 3:00 and it sometime becoming exothermic, because of the Sun prism ray in the refracted to the poles of
shadowing edge of the earth (The Umbra)
REFERENCES :
Subject to complete. It requires a careful analysis of the classes of garbage for a selection before it became a cereal
grasses of minerals.Some texture of insoluble or soluble waste material are qualified to put together even if it is a
metallic and non-metallic, but a glasses as it vitrification are reliable also in the OPT.
The frolicsome improvement of operation is not actually incongrous but fertilization have a same basis of reaction to
the soil and inflate of development on the grounds. Plasticity is a lot of created material in the waste production, but
it has a property of cohesion when its suit in a grains one of the ingredients.
After when all this compliment done to combine for a ideal inventive fertilizer we are also instance to call out as a
genuine porous super-organic grains mineral that 100% were relying on for the protection of our mother nature.
5. The differences and changing factor of grains is more efficient to develop the soil, Some generation of solid
minerals are equally to the structure of molecules, but as to grow. The grains , powder or pulverize are basic form
have a smallest unit of weight or tiny particles that multiplicand to absorb the polymerization.(because they are
already recycled).
The fundamental affecting damage of the soil is we are basically seen of drought and erosion which is in a part of
decay that had just the temperature is above of distant ray of the sun,but it also frequently assume because of
insufficient ground water engrossing system.
This program relativity is between the soil and waste in it considerable that has everything about to controlled.
The similarity of the soil between the garbage is a same source of livelihood.The soil producing of important
nutrient for a plants , vegetable , fruits and other nutriment while every one of these are productive in the trading
industries and distributed all over for a commodities. We notice, before the products deliver through a public or
commercial merchandise it’s came along of operation to modernize the expo. Maybe the quality is in good
modification of marketing, But the productive materials of manufacturer is consume much of lids and other empty
inorganic material that we are sometime strange giving us fault to managed.
Consciously, The garbages itself is a deaden material and dirtiness in our environment, Although they are recyclable
to restored in other use of the production.But we have still more option to fix them alive and grow as a superorganic
minerals and this is where to present the projects. (The Repository}
APPLICATION :
It has often been said that if everyone of us controlled the garbage it is also about to control the economic
development. In events, we are not just only to develop the economy, but more and then to protects of our mother
nature.
Our development focusing to distance of upward to downward in the midst of risk to the breeze of the atmosphere
and grounds to expand of useful natural resources for more innovative submission in the production and built facility
as a working home of communication.
Among countries of the world did not substantial to comprehend and settle everything about of waste production ,
and it goes without a mannered basis management for a decision makers , and they are appeared by a small bench of
consideration . A lot of governments will not be seriously thinking the situation of environments , and they are
satisfied for just only to maintain their melting companies that was overcome horrible results for the people whose
affected.
The melting company cannot be much to utilize the thousandth tons of gargabe by eventual selection of recyclable
materials and its only picking some valuable material that they’re only known belong of the operation , because 60%
6. of them are small quantity remain still on the dump location that left and forgotten for another dumped section of
transportation. As a result of negligence some of these remnants are coarse to produced of acid reaction and unify to
the soil of taint chemical action has even air infect and it can hurts human contamination.
We mention, The production of carbon emission usually occur to melting companies and other factories to liquefy
some solid materials for another ingenious productive materials.
Whereupon the British American environmental council together with UNITED NATION and dispute of threatening
effects in our environments, and everyone are strict to constitute of decree that mutual for every governments to
attend and re-stablish of regulation must people to appreciates, but day has passed. We are still lying on the grounds
to figure out of improvements.
Environmental Facts : To many numbers of government lacking to dominate the waste production,and they are
worried to uncover the internal civilization of their countries had more dis-arrangement to entertained the council
and get leave of communication because of the discomfit action.
It’s not too late,The cooperative system is a significant lines to raise the project, and it is functional to handle the
cases of waste production into a ideal and perfect place of recycling and stored of new breed SUPERORGANIC
minerals that get help us up to recover our modern cool environment from messy waste production of every cities of
the world .
