Environment - Class 7 - Geography (Social Studies)
This PPT is helpful for class 7 students and for teachers looking for teaching aids. This topic is about Environment and I have explained the same in a very simple and interesting manner.
Our environment.ppt
The document discusses human waste and its impacts on the environment. It describes two main types of waste - biodegradable waste that can be decomposed, like food scraps, and non-biodegradable waste, like plastics, that persist in the environment and cause pollution. The document then provides several methods for proper waste disposal, including landfills, recycling, composting, and incineration, to reduce pollution impacts.
Environment and its components,
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 the physical environment 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.
7th Grade Chapter 1 Lesson 2 pgs. 9-14
The document discusses the key components of soil and the environment. It explains that soil is made up of minerals and organic material, and the organic material is formed through decomposition of once living organisms. Soil contains layers including topsoil, subsoil, and bedrock below. Weathering, both physical and chemical, breaks down rocks into smaller minerals and fragments that become part of the soil.
Air resources
The document discusses air, the atmosphere, and air pollution. It defines air as the mixture of gases surrounding Earth that humans breathe. The atmosphere protects life on Earth and is composed of different layers including the troposphere where humans live and most clouds and water vapor exist. Air and the atmosphere are important as they prevent harmful sun rays, burn up falling objects in the sky, influence other resources and regulate Earth's temperature. However, air pollution from sources like vehicles and industry can cause health issues for humans and harm plants and contribute to problems like acid rain, global warming and ozone layer destruction. Ways to reduce air pollution discussed include decreasing greenhouse gases, preserving forests, monitoring air quality, and reducing emissions.
Environment and their components
The document defines key components of the environment. It states that the environment is the sum of all biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) factors that surround and potentially influence an organism. It describes the major biotic components as plants, animals, humans, fungi and bacteria. The major abiotic components are defined as water, light, air, soil, and nutrients. The document then goes on to describe the four major spheres that make up the environment - the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere.

It provides explanations and examples of each factor, how they harm the planet, and some ways human activities can be adjusted to reduce negative impacts and help protect the Earth's resources for the future.
Important component of enviroment
This document discusses the differences between abiotic and biotic components of an ecosystem. It defines abiotic components as the non-living physical and chemical factors such as air, water, soil, sunlight, and temperature. Biotic components refer to the living organisms in an ecosystem, including producers like plants that carry out photosynthesis, consumers like animals, and decomposers like bacteria and fungi. The document outlines key abiotic components and provides examples of different types of biotic components, emphasizing that biotic life depends on abiotic resources and noting the interactions between living and non-living aspects of any given ecosystem.
Man and his Environment
This document discusses various types of ecosystems and their components. It begins by defining an ecosystem as a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. It then describes three major classes of ecosystems: freshwater, terrestrial, and oceanic. Each section provides details on the characteristics and examples of ecosystems within these classes. The document also discusses abiotic and biotic components of ecosystems, including producers, consumers, decomposers, and food chains/webs. It focuses specifically on carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and water cycles, as well as symbiotic, parasitic, predatory, and competitive relationships between organisms within ecosystems.
Environent and its components
The document defines environment as the natural and non-living surroundings that directly or indirectly influence the growth and development of an organism. It provides several definitions of environment, including the ISO definition of an organization's surroundings including air, water, land, natural resources, living things, and human interactions. The document also discusses the origins of the word "environment" and classifies the components of the environment as physical, biological, cultural, biotic vs abiotic, and lists the main components as the hydrosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere, biosphere, and anthrosphere.
An Introduction to Environment
The document discusses the key components of the environment including natural components like air, water, soil and plants as well as human-made components such as bridges, parks and buildings. It notes that human activities like clearing forests, extracting minerals and constructing dams impact the environment. The document then provides information on environmental processes and how plants help keep the environment balanced by producing oxygen and absorbing carbon dioxide. Specific facts are given about the oxygen and carbon dioxide levels produced and absorbed by trees. The document concludes by discussing Bangladesh's natural resources like forests and wildlife as well as providing tips to help maintain a healthy ecosystem.
Man Environmental Interaction

BIOLOGY (Lesson Plan): Changes in ecosystems.
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 Cycle Of Life1
The document discusses the carbon and nitrogen cycles. The carbon cycle involves carbon dioxide being absorbed by plants through photosynthesis and released through respiration and decay. Carbon is also stored long-term in fossil fuels, limestone, and other carbonate rocks. The nitrogen cycle similarly involves nitrogen being fixed from the atmosphere by lightning and bacteria, entering ecosystems, and being released through decay. Both cycles are impacted by human activities like fossil fuel use and fertilizer production.
project on Ecosystem(EVS)
An ecosystem includes all living and non-living things in a defined area that interact with each other. It describes the complex web of interactions between organisms and their environment. Each organism has a role, and the ecosystem as a whole determines the health of the biosphere. When a new organism or factor is introduced, it can disrupt this natural balance and potentially harm the ecosystem. Ecosystems face many threats including habitat destruction from human activities, pollution, overharvesting of resources, and increased UV radiation from ozone depletion. These threats can destroy ecosystems by altering the delicate balance of interactions.
Carbon cycle and global concerns on environment
Carbon is the primary building block of life and cycles through different carbon pools in the biosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. The global carbon cycle involves fluxes of carbon between these pools through natural processes like photosynthesis, respiration, and geological processes. However, human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation have significantly increased carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, disrupting the natural carbon cycle and causing global climate change. Rising global temperatures will lead to problems like rising sea levels, food shortages, and threats to biodiversity.
natural resources
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.
Stage 18 Review
The document provides a review of material covered in Stage 18, including vocabulary words, grammar rules about neuter nouns and their declensions, and cultural information about Egypt. It lists 18 Latin vocabulary words and their English meanings. It explains that neuter nouns have identical nominative and accusative singular forms and nominative and accusative plural forms ending in -a. Finally, it shares brief facts about the importance of the Nile River to Egypt's agriculture and economy, and Egypt's export of goods to Rome.
02a environmental concerns
This document discusses concepts related to sustainable planning and development, including population growth, environmental concerns, and correlation versus causation. It provides sources from the US Census Bureau on current world and US population numbers and growth rates. It also links to external sites discussing topics like the relationship between population and sustainable scale, as well as articles on genetically modified organisms and labor issues.

AP Environmental Science Ch. 6, part 1 - Human Populations
The document provides information on reasons for continued high population growth and its impacts. It discusses three main reasons for ongoing growth: improved living conditions in more places, more efficient agriculture, and better health services. As a result, death rates have dropped significantly while birth rates have only slowed somewhat, leading to continued net population increase. This adds over 200,000 people to the global population per day. Nearly all future growth is projected to occur in developing countries, where poverty contributes to environmental degradation as people struggle to meet basic needs.
AP Environmental Science Ch 5 part 1
Species interactions such as competition, predation, and symbiosis influence natural selection by affecting population sizes and survival/reproductive rates. These interactions are a major factor in determining which traits become more common or rare in a population over generations as organisms adapt to each other.

Environmental science
Our environment consists of both natural and man-made elements that surround us. It includes living things like plants and animals as well as non-living things like oceans, soil and human structures. Environmental science seeks to understand our relationship with the natural world and find balanced solutions to problems in order to protect both the environment and human well-being. While human activities like agriculture, industry and population growth have degraded natural systems, environmental science can help limit impacts and maintain ecological functioning to achieve sustainability.
Environmental Science slides
This document provides an outline of key topics in human population growth, including:
- Global population has grown rapidly in recent history and is projected to continue growing significantly.
- Perspectives on population growth include Malthusian and Marxist views that debate its causes and impacts.
- Factors like birth rates, death rates, life expectancy, age structure, and family size preferences determine population growth rates.
- As countries develop economically, they typically progress through a demographic transition of falling mortality and later falling fertility.
- Achieving a sustainable global population will require continued expansion of family planning access and women's rights.
Populations
Population dynamics refers to the characteristics and changes in populations over time. Key factors that influence population size include birth rates, death rates, population density, age structure, and dispersion within a habitat. Under ideal conditions with no environmental constraints, populations would experience exponential growth due to high biotic potential.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
