Grassroots energy overview
Grassroots Energy uses local agricultural resources to set up distributed energy services that provide 24/7 electricity. It develops mini grids powered by biogas generated from farm waste and syngas from agricultural waste through gasification. These mini grids trap methane emissions, operate for longer than diesel generators or solar, and provide multiple revenue streams from electricity and thermal energy sales. The environmentally sustainable model creates local jobs, solves energy access issues, improves healthcare, and integrates with the local economy and resources.
Chapter 4
The document discusses the social responsibilities of businesses, including protecting the environment, promoting diversity in the workplace, ensuring job safety and employee wellness. It provides examples of how businesses can be environmentally responsible through using recycled materials, offering hybrid vehicles, and electronics recycling programs. Businesses should also be sensitive to diversity and follow laws like the ADA and OSHA to promote equal opportunities and workplace safety. Ethics are important principles for businesses to consider through codes of conduct that guide employee actions.
Role of sustainability in innovative branding
This is a presentation from the Devang Mehta Educational Awards 2019 that my team-mate Sahil and I (Taher) presented. We started the presentation with an interesting video of a practical example and later gone into the details such as meaning, need and more real life examples in which companies have successfully positioned themselves using sustainable branding.

Green sharing 26 12-58
Sustainable development has been a great challenge to the building and construction
industry for decades. There have been many initiatives and attempts to create sustainability for the
industry through the concept of the Green Building certificate in order to reduce the impact to
environment and society while promoting better living conditions of the people involved in the
project. This paper aims to examineall three aspects of sustainability; economy, environment and
society, in the building and construction industry by proposing new criteria for the green building
certificate. This will create opportunities for the community based handicraft building products to be
specified and purchased to be used in the modern building and construction industry and share the
economic value to the community.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
