1. Global climate change is causing changes in Nepal's climate that are negatively impacting livelihoods. Women farmers are especially vulnerable.
2. This study examined two districts in Nepal and found that women say crop production has decreased and their traditional occupations are changing due to alterations in flood patterns and rainfall.
3. Women are taking on more debt and diversifying their livelihoods in response. They are changing cropping patterns, introducing new crops, and adopting off-farm activities. However, women still face difficulties accessing inputs and markets due to floods, conflicts, and infrastructure damage.

This study examines the impact of climate change on the livelihoods of women farmers in Banke and Bardiya districts of Nepal. It finds that women's livelihoods are highly dependent on agriculture and are being affected by changes in flooding patterns. Women report decreases in crop production, disruption of markets, and increased debt due to more severe and unpredictable flooding. They are adapting by changing cropping patterns, growing alternative crops, and engaging in off-farm activities. However, women face barriers like lack of skills, access to inputs and credit, and poor infrastructure. The study identifies women's priorities for adaptation such as training, crop diversification, livestock raising, access to loans, and improved irrigation. Supporting these priorities could

The Green Revolution in India in the 1940s led to increased food production but also caused unintended health and environmental consequences. While chemical fertilizers and pesticides helped maximize crop yields, their overuse has polluted drinking water and increased cancer, birth defects, and kidney disease among the rural population. Some farmers are now switching back to organic methods to try and reduce the pollution and protect public health.

Water and Peace
This document discusses how lack of access to clean water leads to conflict and outlines ways that Rotarians can help address water issues and promote peace. It notes that 750 million people lack safe water and 2.5 billion lack sanitation, and this disparity has led to many conflicts over water resources. However, the document provides examples of how Rotarian-led water projects have improved access to water, increased cooperation between groups, and created peace in places like Togo, Kenya, India, and Oregon. It argues that Rotarians can help mitigate conflict by convening discussions, strengthening local water management, and implementing sustainable water and sanitation solutions. The document encourages Rotarians to adopt a holistic approach that focuses on both increasing water supply
Organic farming 6
This document provides an overview of organic farming in India and Odisha.

Chipko movement .pptx
The Chipko movement was a forest conservation movement started in 1970 in India to protect trees and the livelihood of local communities. Local village women would literally hug trees to prevent loggers from cutting them down. The movement was inspired by Sunderlal Bahuguna and aimed to address rapid deforestation and its impacts like soil erosion, landslides, and loss of livelihood. Through non-violent protest and raising environmental awareness, the Chipko movement was successful in establishing a 15-year ban on tree felling and inspiring widespread tree planting efforts.
BILLION TREE LOW RES 2
This document provides an introduction to the Plant for the Planet: The Billion Tree Campaign. It discusses how the campaign was inspired by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Wangari Maathai's call to plant 1 billion trees. The campaign far exceeded its goal, receiving pledges for nearly 2.4 billion trees by early 2008 from a wide range of partners around the world. The document highlights the importance of trees and reforestation for the environment, climate change mitigation, and sustainable development. It celebrates the success and widespread participation in the campaign.
Gender and climate_change - prof. vibhuti patel
This document discusses the disproportionate impacts of climate change on women and the need for greater inclusion of women in climate change adaptation and decision-making. Some key points:
- Women are more vulnerable to the effects of climate change like droughts and floods as they are often responsible for tasks like securing food and water for households.
- Women have unequal access to resources and are underrepresented in climate-related decision making, making them more at risk from natural disasters.
- While women are more severely impacted, their knowledge is not utilized in climate adaptation and mitigation efforts due to their exclusion from these processes.
- Major international agreements and institutions related to climate change have predominantly male participation and do not adequately address

Operating System Used by Users in day-to-day life.pptx
Dive into the realm of operating systems (OS) with Pravash Chandra Das, a seasoned Digital Forensic Analyst, as your guide. 🚀 This comprehensive presentation illuminates the core concepts, types, and evolution of OS, essential for understanding modern computing landscapes.
Beginning with the foundational definition, Das clarifies the pivotal role of OS as system software orchestrating hardware resources, software applications, and user interactions. Through succinct descriptions, he delineates the diverse types of OS, from single-user, single-task environments like early MS-DOS iterations, to multi-user, multi-tasking systems exemplified by modern Linux distributions.
Crucial components like the kernel and shell are dissected, highlighting their indispensable functions in resource management and user interface interaction. Das elucidates how the kernel acts as the central nervous system, orchestrating process scheduling, memory allocation, and device management. Meanwhile, the shell serves as the gateway for user commands, bridging the gap between human input and machine execution. 💻
The narrative then shifts to a captivating exploration of prominent desktop OSs, Windows, macOS, and Linux. Windows, with its globally ubiquitous presence and user-friendly interface, emerges as a cornerstone in personal computing history. macOS, lauded for its sleek design and seamless integration with Apple's ecosystem, stands as a beacon of stability and creativity. Linux, an open-source marvel, offers unparalleled flexibility and security, revolutionizing the computing landscape. 🖥️
Moving to the realm of mobile devices, Das unravels the dominance of Android and iOS. Android's open-source ethos fosters a vibrant ecosystem of customization and innovation, while iOS boasts a seamless user experience and robust security infrastructure. Meanwhile, discontinued platforms like Symbian and Palm OS evoke nostalgia for their pioneering roles in the smartphone revolution.
The journey concludes with a reflection on the ever-evolving landscape of OS, underscored by the emergence of real-time operating systems (RTOS) and the persistent quest for innovation and efficiency. As technology continues to shape our world, understanding the foundations and evolution of operating systems remains paramount. Join Pravash Chandra Das on this illuminating journey through the heart of computing. 🌟
