Greenpeace's report on india telecom sector ppt
Greenpeace's report examines the growing carbon emissions from India's telecom sector as it expands rapidly. The sector now requires 14 billion units of electricity annually, mostly powered by diesel generators at mobile towers since grid connectivity is limited. This results in over 6 million tons of CO2 emissions yearly. While some initiatives and companies have pledged to increase the use of renewable energy like solar at towers, most telecom companies have not implemented clear plans to significantly reduce their carbon footprint. Shifting telecom infrastructure to renewable sources could save costs for companies and the government while lowering emissions.

Pre colonial-period
The document provides an overview of pre-colonial Philippine culture, including its early inhabitants, systems of writing, forms of government, social classes, and architecture. The Negritos were among the earliest settlers, followed by Austronesian peoples beginning around 4000 BCE. By 1000 BCE, distinct groups had developed, including hunter-gatherers, warrior societies, and communities along rivers and coasts engaged in trade. Pre-colonial Filipinos had their own writing systems and a form of government centered around independent barangays led by datus. Social classes ranged from primitive communal organizations to feudal systems in some Islamic areas.
Pre spanish period in the philippines
Ancient Filipinos lived in scattered communities called barangays ruled by chieftains called datus. They had distinct cultures though separated geographically. They built houses from light materials and some lived in treehouses. Males wore minimal clothing while females wore a top and skirt. Society was stratified with nobles, freemen, and slaves. Each barangay was self-governed and alliances were formed through blood pacts. They had religious and superstitious beliefs, practiced trade, engaged in farming, fishing, and crafts. Education was informal and through family. They communicated in various languages and had their own writing system.
Pre colonial philippine literature
Pre-Colonial Philippine literature originated from various ethnic groups that inhabited the archipelago. Verses were composed in various forms including octosyllabic, dodecasyllabic, riddles, maxims, epigrams, and were used to entertain, educate, curse or preserve culture. Some common pre-colonial poetic forms included tanaga, ambahan, and ancient metrical tales that told stories about heroes and myths. Folk songs were also an important part of pre-colonial literature and expressed the people's lifestyles through various genres.

Module 10 - Section 7,8 & 9: Enabling effects of ICTs for climate action 2011...
This presentation focuses on the role of ICTs in enabling the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, in facilitating greater energy efficiency and overall in contributing to the promotion of sustainability and LED (low emission development).
Slide presentations developed to demonstrate how Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) be used to address climate change, and why ICTs are a crucial part of the solution – i.e. in promoting efficiency, Green Growth & sustainable development, in dealing with climate change and for climate and environmental action. These slide presentations were delivered in February 2011 in Seongnam, near Seoul in Korea.
These presentations were developed and delivered over 2.5 days on the occasion of a Regional Training of Trainers Workshop for upcoming Academy modules on ICT for Disaster Risk Management and Climate Change Abatement. These modules were developed as part of the Academy of ICT Essentials for Government leaders developed by the United Nations (UN) Asia Pacific Centre for ICT Training (APCICT), based in Songdo City, in the Republic of South Korea.
These presentations were developed in 2011, and are somewhat out of date, but most of the principles still apply. Module 10, which has been published, does not include much of the information outlined in these presentations, which are fairly technical. They were developed to address a significant gap in understanding of the technical basis of using ICTs for climate action and because there is a clear bias in development circles against the importance of dealing with climate change mitigation in developing countries. These presentations are an attempt to redress this lack and are published here with this purpose in mind.
The author, Richard Labelle, is presently working on updating these presentations to further highlight the importance of addressing climate change and the important role that technology including ICTs, play in this effort.

IRJET- Efficient Power Utilization in Communication Towers
This document proposes a framework called Green Radio Technology to improve the efficient use of power in cellular communication towers. Currently, towers operate continuously regardless of user traffic levels, wasting significant amounts of power. The proposed framework would dynamically switch towers on and off based on user frequency, keeping only one tower active during periods of low traffic to handle all communications while others remain idle. This approach aims to reduce both energy usage and carbon dioxide emissions from the towers. The document outlines the existing inefficient system, proposed Green Radio Technology approach, block diagram of the system, software implementation details, and methodology for dynamically switching towers and utilizing renewable energy sources like solar to power towers.

Energy Demand Analysis of Telecom Towers of Nepal with Strategic Scenario Dev...
Telecom towers, technically known as BTS (Base Transceiver Stations) are the most energy intensive part of cellular network architecture and contribute up to 60 to 80% of total cellular power consumption and varies in response to the real traffic demand throughout the day and night. But, thelack of grid availability highlightsa potential barrier to telecom industry growth in Nepal. Nepal has approximately 5,222 telecom towers of which about 22% do operate on diesel generators (DGs) while the remaining by grid electricity with some shares of renewable energy technologies (RETs: solar and/or wind). Despite the large carbon imprint, the uncertainty in power availability has compelled telecom operators to use DGs to ensure continuous supply of power for the better network availability, which translates huge operating costs along with adverse environmental impact. So, it becomes an imperative solution for telecom operators to evaluate all alternatives in order to increase network reliability with reduced energy cost. This study report intentionally focus on current energy consumptionof such telecom towers and forecast thefuture energydemand with reference to growing subscriber trend up to 2025 using LEAP (Long Range Energy Alternative Planning System)withBusiness As Usual (BAU) scenario. A clean energy technology (CET) scenario with possible RET options is also developed and compared with base case scenario through some policy mechanics on behalf of environmental benefits and sustainable cellular communication. Furthermore, this study concludes a potential energy cum cost saving with RET adoption with basic cost economics analysis.
