It outlines Pakistan's national environmental policy and strategies, including the National Conservation Strategy and National Environmental Action Plan. Major environmental problems facing Pakistan are identified as acid rain, air pollution, water pollution, and overpopulation. The high costs of environmental degradation to Pakistan's economy are noted. The document calls on youth to actively participate in environmental protection and change bad habits to help tackle problems.
This document discusses the history and evolution of the concept of sustainable development. It outlines several important conferences where the term was introduced and defined, including the 1987 Brundtland Commission report, the 1992 Earth Summit, and 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development. These conferences sought to integrate environmental and development policies and establish frameworks and goals like Agenda 21 and the Millennium Development Goals. The document also examines how sustainable development has been defined and interpreted across disciplines and contexts.
This document provides an introduction to the topic of sustainability. It discusses key concepts like resources, population growth, sustainable development, and interdependence. Resources are defined as anything taken from the environment to make goods and products for human needs and wants. However, using resources leads to waste. Sustainable development means meeting current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. It involves considering consumption, waste, and responsible use of Earth's finite resources. The document stresses thinking globally about how our actions impact others and acting locally through sustainable practices in our own communities.
The document discusses the concept of sustainable development as an alternative to the current state of development, which is causing ecological, economic, social, and political problems. It provides definitions of sustainable development from various sources, emphasizing that it involves meeting present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs. The three pillars of sustainable development - environmental sustainability, economic sustainability, and social sustainability - are explained. Steps to promote environmental sustainability through practices like organic farming and renewable energy are outlined. The document also notes some criticisms of sustainable development, such as that the term is vague and difficult to measure.
sustainable development & the water, energy food security nexus is discussed. The content throws light on sustainable development : Effects on the livelihood of common man.
The document discusses sustainable development and climate change in India. It summarizes the Sustainable Development Goals adopted by world leaders in 2015 and India's progress and challenges in achieving these goals. Key initiatives discussed include Namami Gange Mission to clean the Ganges river, increasing resource efficiency, monitoring air pollution levels, and the International Solar Alliance to promote solar energy. Going forward, it is important for all states in India to progress towards the SDGs and for the global community to cooperate in climate action.
The document discusses the concept and principles of sustainable development. It defines sustainable development as an approach to economic development that does not compromise the environment and resources for future generations. It explains that sustainable development can be achieved through limiting human impacts, replacing used resources, minimizing pollution, and sensible use of natural resources. The three pillars of sustainable development are described as economic, social, and environmental development. Finally, it provides examples of sustainable practices like wind and solar energy, crop rotation, and sustainable construction.

The document discusses the relationship between the environment and sustainable economic development. It defines environment and explains how it is interdependent with development. Sustainable development is defined as meeting present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs. While economic growth benefits standards of living, it has also degraded ecosystems. Maintaining balance requires policy interventions like promoting cleaner technologies, efficient resource use, and international cooperation. Development and environment impact each other, so sustainable development is needed.
Sustainable Development with respect to Population GrowthIrfan Ansari
The document discusses sustainable development with respect to population growth. It notes that meeting future needs depends on balancing social, economic, and environmental factors. Population growth impacts food supply, water availability, climate change, and biodiversity as population grows exponentially while resources grow arithmetically. To promote sustainable development, efforts are needed to slow population growth through improved access to family planning and reproductive health services. This would allow countries to invest in their economies and citizens' living standards while reducing environmental pressures from resource use and consumption. The conclusion stresses that sustainable development requires managing population growth along with other factors like resource conservation and cleaner technologies.
The attached PowerPoint presentation contains information about the Impacts of development on the environment. Please make use of the same. Both positive and negative impacts also included here.
This document defines a green economy as one that improves human well-being and reduces environmental risks and ecological scarcities. It discusses the principles, features, tools, myths and benefits of a green economy. A green economy creates jobs in renewable energy, sustainable agriculture and manufacturing, public transportation, and green infrastructure. It debunks myths that a green economy inhibits growth and is only for wealthy nations, providing examples where green jobs have lifted people out of poverty. A green economy is economically sound because it invests in natural capital and ecosystem services that support tourism, recreation and public health.
The document discusses responses to climate change at both the international and national levels. At the international level, it focuses on the Kyoto Protocol, an agreement between 192 countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Some successes of the protocol included countries meeting emission targets, but limitations included some countries not achieving targets and overall emissions continuing to rise. At the national level, it discusses policies in Singapore to reduce emissions, including the Singapore Green Plan to increase natural gas usage, the Green Mark Scheme to promote green building standards, and a tree planting program.
This document summarizes key concepts related to environmental justice. It defines environmental justice as "the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies." It notes that environmental justice stems from the intersection of civil rights and environmentalism and focuses on addressing the disproportionate environmental impacts experienced by marginalized communities. Factors like economic resources, social capital, and structural discrimination can influence exposure to environmental hazards as well as health outcomes.
1) Climate change is the defining human development issue that threatens to undermine efforts to reduce poverty and limit human progress by eroding freedoms and choices.
2) The impacts of climate change are already being felt disproportionately by the world's poorest populations through increased extreme weather events and water scarcity.
3) Failure to adequately address climate change through ambitious emissions reductions and investments in adaptation could reverse generations of progress on human development goals for hundreds of millions of the world's poorest people.
The Kyoto Protocol is a 1997 global agreement that set targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It aimed to reduce emissions in industrialized countries to 5% below 1990 levels by 2008-2012, with varying targets for different countries. While most industrialized countries met their targets, emissions in other high emitters like the US rose. The targets are now seen as too low, and greater reductions are needed to combat climate change. Individual actions and moving to renewable energy can help reduce emissions, but replacing coal with nuclear power will also be necessary to meet future targets.
This document discusses environmental laws, treaties, and policies. It provides an overview of what environmental laws regulate and their general functions. It also defines environmental treaties and policies. Finally, it presents a timeline of major environmental treaties from 1962 to 1997, including conventions to prevent oil pollution at sea, protect wetlands, regulate ship pollution, protect endangered species, combat air pollution and ozone depletion, manage hazardous waste, protect biodiversity, address climate change, industrial accidents, desertification, and set targets for reducing greenhouse gases.
This document discusses strategies for transitioning to a green economy proposed by various international organizations. It provides examples of green economy initiatives in key areas like buildings, appliances, transportation, lighting, and industry implemented by G8 countries. Specific policies promoted include super insulation standards for new buildings, regulations on standby power and eco-design of appliances, fuel efficiency standards and eco-driving programs for vehicles, phasing out incandescent bulbs, and energy management programs for industry. International consensus indicates these types of coordinated policy measures can significantly reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions over the long term.
The document discusses environmental justice and outlines several key points:
1) Environmental justice aims to ensure that no groups bear a disproportionate share of negative environmental impacts. It addresses issues like "environmental racism" and ensuring equal protection and opportunity.
2) Health is a main focus of the environmental justice movement in addressing how pollution and toxins affect communities. Several case studies of disproportionately impacted areas are mentioned.
3) Solutions discussed include preventing environmental threats proactively, mobilizing affected communities, and joining environmental and social justice efforts into a unified movement focusing on sustainability and equitable development.
The presentation summarized the history and key aspects of the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement linked to the UNFCCC aimed at fighting global warming. It discussed how the protocol was adopted in 1997 and entered into force in 2005, committing industrialized countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The presentation outlined the emission reduction targets and trading programs established by the protocol, as well as future meetings planned to regulate violators. It concluded by stating the protocol was an important first step, but further negotiations are needed to deliver stronger emission reductions to address climate change.
the principle of sustainable development is very significant environmental principle developed through various international treaties and now became the part of Indian environmental jurisprudence.
We examine climate justice as the explicit framing of climate change as an ethical and political issue. We first look at justice broadly, then environmental justice, and then climate justice. We conclude with a question about justice as degrowth or green growth.
This document discusses environmental issues and sustainable development in Spain. It covers:
- The concept of sustainable development as stimulating economic growth while safeguarding natural resources.
- How the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors impact the environment through activities like agriculture, industry, tourism and transportation infrastructure.
- Specific environmental problems in Spain like air pollution, uncontrolled urbanization, desertification, and threatened species.
- Protected areas that have been established in Spain to conserve the environment, including national parks, natural reserves, and areas in international agreements or the EU Natura 2000 network.
Climate Change: Implications for EnergyECFoundation
The Fifth Assessment Report from the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is the
most comprehensive and relevant analysis of our
changing climate. It provides the scientific fact base
that will be used around the world to formulate
climate policies in the coming years.
This document is one of a series synthesizing the most pertinent findings of AR5 for specific economic and business sectors. It was born of the belief
that the energy sector could make more use of AR5, which is long and highly technical, if it were distilled into an accurate, accessible, timely, relevant and readable summary. Although the information presented here is a ‘translation’ of the key content relevant to this sector from AR5, this summary report adheres to the rigorous scientific basis of the original source material.
The basis for information presented in this overview report can be found in the fully-referenced and peer-reviewed IPCC technical and scientific background reports at: www.ipcc.ch
This document provides an outline and overview of the concept of sustainable development. It discusses how sustainable development first emerged in international reports in the 1980s focusing on balancing environmental protection and economic development. The document then defines development and sustainable development, describing it as meeting current needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs. It outlines the evolution of sustainable development through key conferences and frameworks. Finally, it discusses the three pillars of sustainable development as environmental protection, economic development, and social development with some adding a fourth pillar of cultural diversity.
1) The document is a presentation on climate change by Mr. Virender Chhachhiya for the Department of Geography at Panjab University Chandigarh.
2) It discusses the definitions of climate and climate change, causes of climate change including both natural factors and human activities, and effects of climate change on various systems.
3) Solutions to address climate change discussed include mitigation efforts in the energy sector, shifting to renewable energy, individual actions, and international cooperation through frameworks such as the UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol.
Socialists And Environmentalists What Do We Have In Commonliammacuaid
1) The IPCC report and environmentalists have shown that greenhouse gas levels need to stabilize to prevent catastrophic climate change, including a 2 degree rise in global temperatures.
2) Some climate tipping points such as the loss of summer Arctic sea ice and melting of the Greenland ice sheet could become irreversible within decades due to warming.
3) Market-based solutions to climate change through carbon trading and voluntary corporate measures are insufficient and contradict the need for planned reductions of emissions that are incompatible with prioritizing infinite economic growth. Collective action is needed to transition away from fossil fuels and rationally plan production and resource use.
Climate Change, sustainable development and developing countries (E)Asa Mugenyi
- Developing countries face challenges in balancing their pursuit of sustainable development goals with addressing climate change. Resources used for sustainable development are sometimes diverted to combating climate change effects.
- They lack the technology and financing to combat climate change on their own. While developed countries are major contributors to greenhouse gases, climate change still severely impacts developing countries.
- International agreements aim to promote cooperation between developed and developing countries to equitably share responsibility for climate action. However, developing countries must consider their sustainable development priorities in determining appropriate climate mitigation and adaptation strategies.

- Climate change may exacerbate existing problems like disease, flooding and loss of biodiversity, but these problems are caused or made worse by poverty today. Alleviating poverty is likely a better solution than trying to control the climate.
- Wealthy nations are resilient to these problems because of institutions that promote property rights, contracts, rule of law, open trade, and good governance. These institutions enable people to adapt to uncertainty like climate change.
- Restricting greenhouse gas emissions and providing aid are unlikely to effectively address the root causes of problems or enable adaptation. Sustainable development requires adopting wealth-creating institutions that lead to technological progress.
This document discusses the importance of transitioning to a green economy in the face of climate change and its impacts. It notes that climate change has resulted in many natural disasters and losses around the world. All countries need to commit to implementing green economic development strategies that use environmentally friendly materials. While international agreements like the Kyoto Protocol have addressed this issue, action and implementation has been weak due to economic interests. A green economy approach is urgently needed and all people have a right and responsibility to preserve the environment.

My Energy use for the entire day
When I wake up in the morning, the following are ways through which I use energy until such a time when I retire to bed:
· Lighting the room that consumes about 8% of the energy.
· Cooking using an electric oven that consumes 14% of the energy and other time use gas cookers.
· The refrigerator that remains on throughout consumes about 18% of the energy.
· Cooling and heating of the water using dispensers and also microwave that consumes about 10% of the energy.
· Dishwashing that uses about 6% of the energy.
· Washing and drying of the clothes that uses 18% of energy.
· Fueling of the car using petrol to go out for the shopping and other activities of interest to me that uses 20% of energy.
· Use of the laptop to do research and other assignments that uses 2% of energy.
· TV and DVDs use 4% of the energy.
Considering different ways that I do use energy, some of them pose a potential adverse effect on the climate change such as carbon emission from petrol fuels. Additionally, sources of the energy that is used are not renewable and considering some of the machines that I use such as washers and dryers, refrigerators and electric cookers, it means that I am one of the people that contribute climate change and therefore, there is need to innovatively consider strategies that I need to in place to reduce energy consumption which would go along way in minimizing negative that I cause to the environment. To deeply address concerns of the climate change in the wider context, I will thoroughly reflect on the week 2, 3, 6, 9, 10 and 11 which address various issues that relate to environmental communication.
Reflection on Energy on use and its integration to climate change and also environmental communication.
In the earlier section, I have identified various through which is use energy when I wake up unto when I retire to sleep. It is equivocal that some of the ways through which I used energy have been introduced after the industrial revolution and even more machines are being introduced which uses fossils fuels which are continually causing climate changes. For example, washing machines and dry cleaners and vehicles are some of the machines which contribute emit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that have an adverse effect on the environment. From my personal experiences and upon reflection of the material that I have covered for the past weeks, there are 8 core concepts and ideas that require attention in the resolve to address climate change and revamp environmental communication. These ideas and concepts are as discussed below:
a) Risk factors of climate change
It is important to become aware of the risk factors of climate change. I cannot wait to be a victim of the .

1. Climate change poses existential threats to small island nations like Vanuatu through sea level rise, more intense storms, droughts and declining crop yields. The 2015 Hurricane Pam caused $60 million in damages, equivalent to 60% of Vanuatu's GDP.
2. Deep decarbonization of the global economy is needed to limit warming to 1.5-2°C through energy efficiency, renewable energy and reducing carbon emissions. However, transitioning away from fossil fuels faces significant political challenges from powerful energy companies.
3. While mitigation is important, adaptation is the priority for small island states. Access to climate financing is critical to build climate resilient economies and infrastructure. The survival of small

Report on Different protocols to regulate global warmingMahendra Sharma
The document discusses international protocols to regulate global warming, including the Montreal Protocol and Kyoto Protocol. It covers the need for international cooperation to address climate change as a global issue. The Montreal Protocol established mechanisms to protect the ozone layer and served as a precursor for climate agreements by focusing on the atmosphere as a global commons and establishing a process for negotiation when the science is uncertain. The Kyoto Protocol aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change through institutionalizing international cooperation.
Climate change is one of society's greatest threats. This was an overview presentation given on the science and solutions to a student audience at the World Bank on January 15, 2015, to inspire youth to take on climate change. The presentation was given as part of a workshop at which Lucia Grenna introduced the Connect4Climate program and Rachel Kyte, Vice President and Special Envoy for Climate Change at the World Bank, gave a personal account of what is need to take on the challenge, considering that 2015 is such an important year. The students went on do discuss their role for climate action, and brainstormed how best to enhance the Sport4Climate initiative of Connect4Climate.
This document discusses how systems thinking can help address climate change as a wicked problem. It first identifies issues with proposed solutions like phasing out fossil fuels, such as high costs and impacts on jobs. It then explains why climate change is a wicked problem due to those contributing to it also causing it, time running out, and lack of global leadership. Finally, it proposes a solution using a systems thinking approach - a multi-scale visualization framework, carbon capture and storage, and government/industry support could work together to stop climate change without drastic changes.
The document discusses the science and impacts of climate change, highlighting that CO2 levels need to be reduced to 350 parts per million to avoid dangerous warming. It promotes organizing events on October 24, 2009 as part of a global day of climate action to call for an ambitious international climate agreement in Copenhagen that December. The goal is to build a worldwide grassroots movement to address this urgent issue.
Climate change is a pressing issue that the world is facing today. The effects of global warming are becoming increasingly evident, and the situation seems to be getting worse with each passing year.
According to recent studies, it is predicted that by the year 2025, the effects of climate change will become irreversible, leading to catastrophic consequences for the planet.
The document discusses various ways that individuals and governments can help prevent global warming. It recommends reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transportation by transitioning to more fuel-efficient vehicles like hybrids and encouraging public transportation. It also suggests making homes more energy efficient through insulation and appliances. Governments should invest in renewable energy and phase out fossil fuel dependence. Collectively addressing the problem through smaller individual changes and policy measures can help mitigate the impacts of climate change.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
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
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

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.

Bring Into Action
Global Climate Strike 2019
3. Over the past 100 years, Earth’s climates have been changing, but the past 4
years have been the hottest on record and climate change effects are being seen
everywhere. Now is the time to take action.
A BRIEF BACKGROUND
4. Causes Climate Change
3 major causes of Climate Change include:
1. Burning coal, oil, and gas
2. Deforestation
3. Increased livestock farming
5. What these effects are doing to the environment:
1. Produces greenhouse gases and causes pollution
2. Carbon can’t store CO2 so it adds more to the
atmosphere
3. Cows and sheep add methane to the atmosphere when
they digest
Effects of Climate Change
6. Climate Justice defined by the UN:
“Climate justice “insists on a shift from a discourse on
greenhouse gases and melting ice caps into a civil rights
movement with the people and communities most
vulnerable to climate impacts at its heart.”
7. The UN Climate Change Summit was held on September 23 in Washing D.C.. UN
Secretary-General António Guterres asked leaders, goverment, buisnesses and
the people to come to this summit to address the climate crisis.
There are actual solutions to climate change and it is time to put them into action.
In order to go through with these solutions, things need to change. Examples such
as including women in decision making, being fair and create opportunities for
everyone, especially those who are impacted the most.
The Climate Action Summit 2019
8. 1. A global transition to renewable energy
2. Sustainable and resilient infrastructures and cities
3. Sustainable agriculture
4. Management of forrests and oceans
5. Alignment of public and private finance with a net zero
