This document is a newsletter from the Buzzards Bay Coalition that summarizes their work over the past year to protect Buzzards Bay. It discusses encouraging signs of a pause in nitrogen pollution levels for the first time in over a decade. It also highlights several of the Coalition's conservation projects, including expanding protected lands along the Mattapoisett River to protect drinking water, restoring a dam site on the Weweantic River, and reducing invasive phragmites in three salt ponds. The newsletter promotes upcoming events like the Buzzards Bay Swim and Watershed Ride and encourages support through donations and volunteering.

Strawberry Creek is a natural feature of the UC Berkeley campus and is one of the primary reasons the site was selected in 1860. In addition to the natural beauty of the Creek, which was named for the wild strawberries that once lined its banks, it is home to a variety of species of wildlife, which provide a valuable resource for education and research.
Since 1987, the campus has undertaken a significant restoration effort to return the creek to its natural condition. Restoration activities include ongoing monitoring of water quality, bi-annual cleanups, the re-introduction of native fish and insects, and the installation of native plant life.
Cleanups are held twice annually in the spring and the fall. Volunteers are equipped with gloves and trash bags, and typically bag around 1,000 lbs of trash per cleanup. Along with the cleanup activity, public outreach programs are oriented towards educating the student community to be more diligent in properly disposing of their trash rather than allowing it to soil the campus environment.

Service Water Heater Solahart Service solahart jakarta barat Perawatan dan perbaikan yang tepat dari komponen sistem pemanas air panas matahari Anda diperlukan untuk memastikan tatanan kerja dan umur panjang yang baik. Pemanas air tradisional memiliki bagian yang perlu diperbaiki dari waktu ke waktu. Pemanas air panas matahari tidak berbeda, kecuali bahwa karena mereka memiliki lebih banyak komponen, ada lagi yang bisa salah.
Di antara bagian yang harus diperiksa secara teratur pada pemanas air matahari Anda adalah pompa, katup dan kontrol, isolasi, kabel, pipa, segel dan keadaan kolektor surya.
Memeriksa Storage Tank dan Inside Components
Banyak sistem pemanas air panas matahari memiliki tangki penyimpanan air terisolasi di tempat yang sama dengan pemanas air tradisional. Air dingin masuk dari air utama dan melalui sistem pipa, katup dan pompa, ia masuk ke kolektor surya dan kembali ke tangki penyimpanan. Jenis pemanas air panas matahari lainnya harus menjaga tangki penyimpanan di atas kolektor surya, jadi juga di luar-biasanya lebih tinggi di atap.
Either way, ada banyak pipa, fitting, katup, pompa dan kontrol yang perlu diperiksa secara teratur untuk memastikan mereka bekerja. Mereka tidak perlu diperiksa setiap bulannya, tapi dua kali setahun tidak terlalu banyak meminta cek kesehatan, Fitting harus ketat, katup tidak boleh menempel, pompa harus beroperasi secara otomatis dan seharusnya tidak ada keretakan, kebocoran atau kerusakan apapun pada tangki penyimpanan.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

Latest State of
Buzzards Bay shows
encouraging pause
in pollution
THANKS TO YOU, WE’RE MAKING PROGRESS
TO STOP THE BAY’S DECLINE
Since the first State of Buzzards Bay report in 2003, we’ve
documented troubling trends in the Bay’s health. Every four
years, the score for nitrogen pollution – the biggest threat
to Buzzards Bay – slipped three points lower on a dramatic
slope toward degradation.
But this year, the State of Buzzards Bay showed an
encouraging sign. For the first time in over a decade,
the score for nitrogen pollution levelled off.
Because of your continued support, we could be
at a turning point in the ongoing effort to save
Buzzards Bay.
Local efforts to clean up pollution from septic systems
and sewer plants, combined with new laws to prevent
more pollution, may be starting to curb the declines of
the past decade.
The formula for saving Buzzards Bay is clear: bold action
to stop nitrogen pollution and protect important forests,
wetlands, and stream buffers. With your help, it’s working.

savebuzzardsbay.org/stateofthebay
With your help, we
can all have clear blue
waters to swim across
every summer at the
Buzzards Bay Swim and

Until Buzzards Bay’s
waters are clear every
summer, we need you
While we celebrate the encouraging pause in pollution
reflected in the latest State of Buzzards Bay, there’s still
much work that lies ahead. That was clear in August, when
a widespread algae bloom called “rusty tide” appeared in
the Bay for the first time since 2012 – a worrying sign of
nitrogen pollution.
More than ever, we need your help to restore
clean water and reclaim the Bay for our children
and grandchildren.
Widespread “rusty tide” spotted this summer in
places like Apponagansett Bay are a distressing
reminder of how much work lies ahead to save
Buzzards Bay for future generations.

But the Baywatchers program continues to face
funding threats – like this summer, when Gov. Baker cut
$125,000 from the state budget. Thanks to our local
legislators who heard your voice, this cut was reversed.
Your gifts help us weather political uncertainty and
keep this program running for another generation.

WATERSHED PROTECTION
Mattapoisett River Reserve
expands with 134 acres of
forests and wetlands
THROUGH YOUR SUPPORT, WE’RE PROTECTING
CLEAN DRINKING WATER FOR LOCAL RESIDENTS
You may not think about forests and wetlands when you turn
on your tap to pour a glass of water. But these natural habitats
keep our drinking water clean by filtering out pollution.
In June, you helped us safeguard these valuable
resources forever for thousands of residents of
Mattapoisett, Marion, Fairhaven, and Rochester.
In three separate town meeting votes, residents
approved funding to conserve land that protects
these towns’ public drinking water supply.
Working in close partnership with water officials in these
four towns, the Coalition conserved 134 acres along the
Mattapoisett River and Tinkham Pond. It’s all part of a
growing Mattapoisett River Reserve, which now stretches
across more than 1,000 acres and provides the public with
forests, streams, and wetlands to explore.
The land was acquired from Mattapoisett resident Howard
Tinkham, whose family has lived in this area for so many
generations that the area around his home is known as
“Tinkhamtown.” By conserving his family land, Tinkham has
ensured these thriving forests will continue to protect clean
water for people like you.
Your support helped save 134 acres of thriving
forests and wetlands along Tinkham Pond and the
Mattapoisett River to protect the public drinking
water supply of Mattapoisett, Marion, Fairhaven,
and Rochester.
Restoring Horseshoe Mill
for fish and wildlife – and
people like you
The Weweantic River in Wareham is home to Buzzards
Bay’s most diverse community of migratory fish. But fish
populations have been dwindling for decades – which is why
we’re now working to restore the river. Over the past year,
we’ve begun a process to remove the crumbling remnants
of a dam, reopen the river, and create a new place to go
walking, fishing, and paddling.
If you’ve visited The Sawmill in Acushnet, then you
can envision the future of Horseshoe Mill: a place
where fish can swim freely and people like you can
enjoy a river that’s been blocked for far too long.
By restoring the Weweantic River at Horseshoe
Mill, we’re creating a place where fish can migrate
freely and people like you can enjoy Buzzards
Bay’s largest freshwater river.

Saving three salt
ponds from invasive
Phragmites
Three years ago, residents near Salters Pond in
Dartmouth and Flume and Gunning Point Ponds in
Falmouth were grappling with a major problem:
how to manage Phragmites, an invasive weed taking
over marshes all around Buzzards Bay.
With the help of donors like you, we spent
three years working with natural resources
experts to drastically reduce Phragmites
from these marshes.
As you can see in these before-and-after photos, the
ponds are now nearly free of Phragmites, and native
plant species and wildlife can once again thrive. This
project provides a model that can be applied to small

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Are you ready
to discover your
Buzzards Bay?
YOU ARE HELPING US CREATE NEW GATEWAYS
TO GET OUTSIDE AND EXPLORE
Over the past five years, your support has helped thousands
of people discover Buzzards Bay on our field programs and
Bay Adventures.
Thanks to donors like you, we are now helping
thousands more through Discover Buzzards
Bay, a new portal to hundreds of places, events,
and adventures around the region. By visiting
savebuzzardsbay.org/discover, everybody can find
a way to get outside and explore.
As part of an exciting new partnership with Southcoast
Health launched in October, we’re sharing these ideas for
healthy, active outdoor recreation with local residents across
the South Coast and beyond.
We’re also continuing to create a new destination for
outdoor exploration on Onset Bay. This year, you helped
us complete the protection of Wickets Island and Burgess
Point. Kids and families will soon create new memories of
Buzzards Bay at these two beautiful places through boating,
swimming, paddling, and shellfishing at our developing
Onset Bay Center.
Thanks to donors like you, we’re expanding
opportunities for people to get outside and
explore through the new Discover Buzzards
Bay website and Onset Bay Center.
You can help care for
trails by volunteering
to “Adopt A Reserve”
Do you love walking the trails at places like The Sawmill,
The Bogs, or Shaw Farm Trail? People like you are helping
us maintain these special places by volunteering to “Adopt
a Reserve.”
Trail volunteers regularly visit our reserves in Acushnet,
Fairhaven, Mattapoisett, and Wareham to inspect the trails
and report what they see. By collecting this information,
you can help us care for your favorite trails so everybody
can enjoy them.
To become a volunteer, call (508) 999-6363 x217
or visit savebuzzardsbay.org/volunteer
You can help us keep more eyes on the ground
at places like The Sawmill in Acushnet by
volunteering to “Adopt a Reserve” and walk the
trails on a regular basis.

WhyI Swim
DAN VASCONCELLOS
OF PEMBROKE
“When I first participated
in the Swim 20 years
ago, you might have
been able to see your
hand in front of you.
Now, the conditions in
New Bedford Harbor are
unbelievable. I like to
think it’s due to the
efforts of the Coalition.”
Why We Ride
Thank you to the nearly 400 swimmers and cyclists who
raised over $250,000 for clean water at the Buzzards
Bay Swim and the Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride. Save
the date for the 24th annual Buzzards Bay Swim on
Saturday, June 24, 2017 and the 11th annual Buzzards
Bay Watershed Ride on Sunday, October 1, 2017!
TEAM GIRL POWER

keep Buzzards Bay clean
is important to all Cape

something they never
thought possible.”

use and enjoyment of our irreplaceable Bay and its
