Greenhouse gas emissions from dairy farming in BangladeshPremier Publishers
Livestock is a vital source of methane and nitrous oxide gas which are considered as hazardous greenhouse gas (GHG) causing global warming. This study was conducted to assess GHG emissions from different livestock categories of different (small, medium, large) dairy farming in Bangladesh by using IPCC guideline 2006 and CIGR 2002. The emission rate of CH4, N2O (mainly emits from manure) is increasing day by day in dairy farming due to poor manure management systems. The study was estimated maximum 20% CH4 was emitted from dairy cow and minimum 8% CH4 was emitted from calf. Least N2O emission found from a farm 0.015 Kg head-1yr-1 where manure was properly utilized by anaerobic digestion. On the other hand most N2O emission found 0.25 Kg head-1yr-1 from a farm where manure was not properly managed. In this research, it had been observed increasing milk production decreasing CO2 emission and vice-versa. The CO2-equivalent for dairy cattle, heifer, calf, bull, buffalo male, buffalo female, and buffalo calf found 1720.4, 788.1, 649.4, 1161.1, 1588.2, 1624.2, and 725 kg head-1yr-1 respectively. The emission rate can be minimized by handling proper dietary, which can reduce excretion of GHG during ruminant digestion and manure management practices.

Impact of Cow Milk Production from Latin America on Greenhouse Gas EmissionsQUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: The lack of research from a Latin American perspective on greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) from cow milk production hinders the design of specific policies that will tackle the problems in this region. The present paper intends to fill in this gap by analyzing statistical information from FAOSTAT, with the aim to find the specific problems that contribute to GHG emissions from Latin America. The main objective of this paper is to review estimates of GHG emissions from dairy production from Latin America, so that more informed decisions in the face of climate change. Results show that milk production does not have such an important effect on GHG production than meat production. On the other hand, countries that import meat may consider the ecological footprint of their meat consumption, since it is an important contributor to GHG production.
Outlined are the positive global effects a vegetarian diet and methods to solve current global issues, such as hunger, pollution, climate change, and health issues.

A BUSINESS PROPOSAL FOR SLAUGHTER HOUSE WASTE MANAGEMENT IN MYSORE MUNICIPAL ...prakheeshc
1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
There are around 8 Tonne to 10 Tonnes of Slaughterhouse waste produced daily in the slaughter houses which perform slaughtering and dressing in limits of MYSORE Municipal Corporation. Slaughterhouse waste need significant treatment for a sustainable and safe discharge to the environment due tothe high content of organics and nutrients. Therefore, the treatment and final disposal of Slaughterhouse waste are a public health necessity. Slaughterhouse waste has become a major source of pollution in the State of Karnataka. Meat processing effluents are becoming one of the major agribusinesses concerns due to the vast amount of water used during slaughtering, processing, and cleaning of the slaughtering facilities. Slaughterhouse waste management system is very poor and several measures are being taken for the effective management of wastes generated. There are hardly any chicken stalls in the state with their own waste management systems. Scientific disposal of such waste is quite expensive and is the reason why they cannot have their own waste management system. Presently the stall owners pay people to have the waste dumped intorivers, streams, roads side etc. There are groups of people engaged in this activity.
a. LAWS
Slaughterhouse without waste management system will not be issued license as per the new food safety standard Act. Hotels are not permitted to buy meat from unlicensed stalls. In such a situation, a number of slaughterhouse will have to shut their shops. To avoid this, centralised poultry waste management system is the only solution. Dry rendering plants (Dehydration System) for every district will be a proper solution.
b. DEHYDRATION SYSTEM
The waste including the feathers undergoes process of hydrolysis by which it is cooked and broken down. Being processed under high pressure and at high temperature renders the waste free of any microbes. Cyclone separator, condenser, scrubber, ETP (Effluent treatment plant), Bio filter and chimney ensure that there is no environmental pollution.
The processing of a batch takes about 4 to 5 hours and 4 such batches can be processed per day totalling to 15 Tonnes waste can be processed per day.

Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity

"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.
ENVIRONMENT~ Renewable Energy Sources and their future prospects.tiwarimanvi3129
This presentation is for us to know that how our Environment need Attention for protection of our natural resources which are depleted day by day that's why we need to take time and shift our attention to renewable energy sources instead of non-renewable sources which are better and Eco-friendly for our environment. these renewable energy sources are so helpful for our planet and for every living organism which depends on environment.
2. Climate
Change?
Climate change is a change in
usual weather of globe or region
for long time
Common phenomenon
includes:
• Increase temperature by Global
Warming
• Sea Level Rises
• Extreme Weather
• Shift in blooming of floral plants or
breeding patterns of Animals
• Loss of Ice Mass in Poles and
Mountains
3. Green
House
Gases
Traps Sun’s Heat
Create Green House Effect
Makes Earth Warmer or livable for us
Common Examples:
• Water Vapors
• Methane(CH4)
• Carbon dioxide (CO2)
• Chlorofluorocarbons
• Nitrous oxide (N2O)
4. Green House Gases are what made Earth
suitable for living organism.
They shouldn’t be considered evil gases!!!
5. IF GHGs occur naturally to
warm planet, what is this all
about ‘Climate Change’ and
‘Global Warming’.
Shouldn’t be our focus on
more ‘Real Issues’.
6. Human Induced
Climate Change
• Earth warmed by 1.5 °F since 1900
• 1 °F in since 1970
• All the warming since 1970 is
Human Induced
WHY? HOW?
• All this is because we emit GHGs
from our various activities
Who are the emitters? I don’t
want shortened winter.
8. Major Contributor in Emission

10. FAO Facts for the Food (it’s
not a moo-point!!!)
• Total emissions from Global
Livestock: 7.1 Giga tones of Co2-
equiv per year (~14.5 percent of
all anthropogenic GHG
emissions);
• Cattle represents 60% of those
Emission;
• 300 kg CO2-eq is emitted to
produce 1 Kg of Protein from Beef
• 44% of Livestock Emission are
from Methane

11. Why I chose Beef?
Inspired by the Documentary
‘Cowspiracy’;
A Key Factor Many Climate Change
‘Activists’ miss out;
We do not talk enough of Beef;
Confess this, many did not even
know Beef was liable for Emission…
12.
13. Global Beef
Production:
• In 2017, Global Beef Production was
66250349 tones and 304414858 heads of
Cattle;
• United States, Brazil, China and Argentina
are top four largest beef producing
countries with Beef production of 11.9,
9.55, 6.89 and 2.84 million tones
respectively.
(Fun Fact: Cow is National Animal of Nepal
and Beef is banned in the constitution. You
may end up in jail for years if found guilty of
slaughtering cows for meat.)

17. How Cow emits Methane?
• Two sources of
methane
emission from
cow are:
• Enteric
Fermentation
• Manure
Emission take
place during
production of feed
and fodder as well.
Production of
Feeds and
Fodder for
Cow
• Release Methane
with other GHGS
Digestion of
Feed and Enteric
Fermentation
• microbial fermentation breaks
down food into soluble
products and release
methane as byproduct
Cow Fart and
Manure
•Release of
Methane
with other
GHGs
18. Calculating Emission from Ruminant
• Strength of Enteric Fermentation is calculated by
following inventory:
FCH4= n R (1/e) m
Where,
n= number of animals
R= Mean Animal’s Energy Requirement (J/time)
m= mean CH4 yield expressed as proportion of R
FCH4 is measured in mass flux unit
