The document discusses different types of protected areas in India that conserve biodiversity - biosphere reserves, wildlife sanctuaries, national parks, and zoos. It provides background on India's biodiversity and lists threats like habitat loss. Biosphere reserves aim to conserve biodiversity and support sustainable development. Wildlife sanctuaries and national parks protect habitats and species. The document lists several biosphere reserves, wildlife sanctuaries, and national parks in Kerala. Zoos provide ex-situ conservation of endangered species.
Biodiversity
Biodiversity refers to “variety and variability among the living organisms and ecological complexes in which they occur”. This includes diversity within species, between species and of the ecosystem. It is defined as the totality of genes, species and ecosystems of a region.
Biodiversity or Biological diversity comprises Genetic diversity, Species diversity and Ecosystem diversity.
Biodiversity and its conservation
This document discusses biodiversity at multiple levels - genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity. It notes that biodiversity represents the variety of life forms from unicellular to multicellular organisms across all biological levels. Species diversity is largest among small organisms like insects and fungi. The document highlights that we have only described 15% of terrestrial species and 9% of marine species, showing how much biodiversity remains unknown. It also discusses the value of biodiversity through the ecosystem services it provides like nutrient cycling, soil conditioning, climate regulation, and providing natural resources for food, medicine and other uses. Maintaining biodiversity acts as an environmental insurance and ensures ecosystem resilience.
Endangered and Extinct Plants and Animals
The document discusses several key threats to biodiversity: habitat loss due to deforestation and urbanization, global warming, introduction of exotic species, and overexploitation of species. It provides examples of each threat and argues that protecting habitats, enforcing anti-poaching laws, educating youth, and individual actions like reducing energy usage can help address these threats and protect endangered plants and animals. Biodiversity is important for human health and future advancement, so saving endangered species from extinction is crucial.
Environmental studies
India has a high level of biodiversity, with many domesticated plant and animal species. Biodiversity refers to the variety of living organisms on Earth, including diversity at the genetic, species, and ecosystem levels. It is created by complex interactions between all living things. There are three main levels of biodiversity - genetic diversity within species, species diversity between different types of plants and animals, and ecosystem diversity which refers to different habitats. Biodiversity is valuable as it provides resources humans rely on for survival like food, medicine, and materials. It also maintains ecological balance and provides aesthetic and cultural benefits.

"Wildlife Conservation"
Wildlife conservation refers to the practice of protecting wild species and their habitats in order to maintain healthy wildlife species or populations and to restore, protect or enhance natural ecosystems. The IUCN estimates that 42,100 species of the ones assessed are at risk for extinction.Expanding to all existing species, a 2023 UN report on biodiversity put this estimate even higher at a million species. It is also being acknowledged that an increasing number of ecosystems on Earth containing endangered species are disappearing.
Purpose:
The urge behind arranging awareness session regarding wildlife conservation is to save our green land from turning into a barren land .This session will enable us to take initial steps against ecological succession and global climate change.
Biodiversity - Ecosystem
This document discusses ecosystems and biodiversity. It begins by explaining the components of an ecosystem, including primary producers like plants and cyanobacteria, consumers like animals and fungi, and decomposers. It then focuses on forest ecosystems, describing their role in producing oxygen and absorbing carbon dioxide. Examples are given of plant and animal species found in a forest in Greece. The document emphasizes the importance of biodiversity for ecosystems and human well-being, and explains the IUCN classification system for evaluating extinction risk of species. The main threats to biodiversity are described as habitat loss and unsustainable consumption.
endangered and extinct animals
Habitat loss, global warming, exotic species introduction, and overexploitation are key reasons why plants and animals become extinct. Habitat loss occurs through deforestation and urbanization which destroy natural habitats. Global warming of even 1 degree can negatively impact plants and animals. The introduction of non-native species allows them to outcompete native species for resources. Overexploitation, or overharvesting, occurs when species are harvested unsustainably making it difficult for populations to recover.

The document emphasizes the importance of biodiversity, noting how it increases ecosystem productivity and provides many benefits to humans like medicines, food, wood products, and more. It also outlines some major threats to biodiversity such as habitat destruction and pollution. Specific areas with high biodiversity, like rainforests and coral reefs, are highlighted. The conclusion provides suggestions for how individuals can help protect biodiversity.
Biodiversity
Human health and happiness depend on biodiversity, but thousands of species are becoming extinct annually due to threats like pollution, overharvesting, habitat degradation, and humans. Biodiversity provides essential nutrients and materials for foods, medicines, and other products people use everyday. The rate of extinction is now 1,000 times higher than normal, potentially leading to the greatest extinction since the dinosaurs. Many species are endangered, including about 2/3 of birds, 1/8 of plants, 1/4 of mammals, 1/4 of amphibians, and 1/5 of reptiles. Growing human population and overuse of resources contribute to biodiversity loss. Only 1/5 of original forests remain yet 50-90% of

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Endangered species.docx
- 1. The Species Act is very important because it saves our species like fish, plants, and other wildlife animals from going disappeared. Once gone, they're gone forever, and there's no going back. Scientist estimate that more than 1 million species will be lost by 2050. Losing even a single species can have impacts on the rest of the ecosystem, because the effects will be learned throughout the food chain. Saving the species provide cures to deadly diseases, to maintain natural ecosystems and improving overall quality of life, The benefits of protecting endangered species are vital/ priceless/ precious. Easy Things To Save Endangered Species Teach your friends and family about the wonderful wildlife, birds, fish and plants that live near you Make your home wildlife friendly. . Visit a national wildlife refuge, park or other open space Herbicides and pesticides may keep yards looking nice but they are in fact hazardous pollutants that affect wildlife at many levels. Native plants provide food and shelter for native wildlife. Slow down when driving. Recycle and buy sustainable products. Never purchase products made from helpless or endangered species. AMUR LEOPARD
