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 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.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
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.
"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.
2. Taxonomy
• Kingdom Animalia
• Phylum Chordata
• Class Mammalia
• Order Cetartiodactyla
• Family Bovidae
• The International Union for
Conservation of Nature
(IUCN)IUCN Red List Category
Least Concern
3. Geographic Range
• The Roan Antelope formerly occurred very widely in the
savannah woodlands and grasslands of sub-Saharan Africa,
the species remains locally common in West and Central
Africa, while in East and southern Africa the species is now
very rare.
• The species is now locally extinct in Burundi, Eritrea and
possibly Gambia.
• It was also eliminated from Swaziland and later reintroduced
to the privately owned Mkhaya Nature Reserve
4. Country Occurrence
• Native: Angola (Angola); Benin; Botswana; Burkina Faso; Cameroon;
Central African Republic; Chad;
• Congo, The Democratic Republic of the; Côte d'Ivoire; Ethiopia;
Ghana; Guinea; Guinea-Bissau; Kenya;
• Malawi; Mali; Mauritania; Mozambique; Namibia; Niger; Nigeria;
Rwanda; Senegal; South Africa; South
• Sudan; Sudan; Tanzania, United Republic of; Togo; Uganda; Zambia;
Zimbabwe

6. Population
• summation of the available population estimates suggests a total
population of about of 76,000 Roan,
• with the largest populations in Burkina Faso (>7,370), Cameroon
(>6,070), Zambia (>5,080) and Tanzania (>4,310).
• However, large numbers are also believed to survive in southern
Sudan. Despite the fact that Roan are generally common in West and
Central Africa,
• some populations are in decline, such as that in Comoé N.P (Côte
d’Ivoire) where numbers have declined by about 70% between 1978
and 1998 to around 500 animals
7. Population Analysis
• population trend is generally stable or decreasing in protected areas
and decreasing elsewhere, apart from the small numbers on private
land in southern Africa which are increasing.
• Current Population Trend: Decreasing
8. Habitat and Ecology
• Savannah woodlands and grasslands, and the bushveld and lowveld
of southern Africa,
• Favor cover of high grasses and woody plants playing an important
role for both grazing and calving
• A water-dependent Herbivore (grazer/browser)
• Systems: Terrestrial
• They prefer open or lightly wooded grassland, with medium to tall
grass,
• Predators: Hyenas, leopards, wild dogs, humans
9. Conservation Actions
• At present, about one-third of the species’ total population occurs in
protected areas.
• The largest surviving populations occur in areas such as Niokolo-Koba
(Senegal), Comoe (Côte d'Ivoire), Arly-Singou and Nazinga (Burkina
Faso), Mole (Ghana), Pendjari (Benin), Waza National Park and the
national parks and hunting zones of North Province (Cameroon),
Manovo-Gounda-St. Floris (Central African Republic), Moyowosi-
Kigosi and Katavi-Rukwa (Tanzania), the Luangwa Valley (Zambia),
Nyika National Park (Malawi) and northern Botswana. Most of these
populations are stable or increasing but some, e.g., in Comoe, Arly-
Singou and Cameroon’s North Province, are in decline.
10. Challenges
• The roan antelope is losing its living spaces.
• It has been eliminated from parts of its former range due to
habitat loss resulting from human activity, such as
agricultural expansion and new road and settlement
construction.
• Poaching is also taking its toll on the roan antelope.
• Hunting outside of protected areas is persistent.
• Gestation is approximately 9 months
