Smart Projects for Smart Cities: The Government Way (Updated to Nov 2015)Anupam Saraph
This is a case study illustrating how bad projects are the norm in smart cities. It illustrates the bad governance and failure of the Ministry of Environment, Ministry of Urban Affairs, the State government and the Urban Local Body to protect public interest.
This case study demonstrates with the example of one stream of how the Pune Municipal Corporation and the JNNURM have been instrumental in destroying urban streams across Pune. JNNURM has funded similar projects across the country.
This has resulted in heavy costs to citizens, particularly:
• 66 Crores of tax money wasted on one streami alone in private interest to steal the green belt and water stream
• Project aimed to continuously waste more money in private interest to destroy all natural streams in Pune and in every urban centre under JNNURM
• Approximately 90 crores worth of wetland and green belt stolen from the public in Devnadi alone
• Water table for entire Baner in Pune (aprox 10 sq Km) destroyed (aprox annual cost of replacing the services 5X the current annual supply of water by tanker mafia)
• Pollution of the ground water and spread of water borne disease by laying sewage lines in the stream (Aprox 44 crores per year in purified drinking water costs for Baner alone + medical expenses to treat water borne disease and mosquito borne disease)
• Crime, failure of the Development Plan by promoting slums to grab the land of the river (Cost to mental health, peace and well being for entire Baner; crime rate up in Baner by more than 100% in last 5 years)
• Risk of damage by flooding increased at least 60 fold as the stream is channelized, constricted and flow changed to 1/60 of its avg. width
• Biodiversity and lungs of the Baner area destroyed by removing the trees and vegetation from the green belt and the river
Paso Robles Stormwater Improvements Discussion Questions
(Turn in after discussion on Tuesday, June 23)
1. Briefly describe the design on 21st Street. Is this the best solution? What are some other
solutions (you will need to do a little research to answer this question)?
2. What improvements were made beyond stormwater conveyance and treatment? Do
you think including these other improvements were justifiable? Why or why not?
3. What design storm is contained in the median channel? Is this sufficient? Why or why
not?
4. What was the cost of the project? Is this cost justifiable? Why or why not?

In making improvements to a key roadway, the City of Paso Robles, California, implemented measures to
retain and treat storm-water runoff and enable it to infiltrate into the ground. The infiltration will recharge
groundwater supplies and reduce flooding. By incorporating features for traffic calming, urban development,
water quality, and water supply, the 21st Street Improvement Project offers a model for other cities looking to
achieve similar objectives. . . . . . By Andy Rowe, p.e., leed ap, env sp, and Larry Kraemer, p.e.

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.
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
