Global warming
This document discusses different types of environmental pollution and their causes and effects, as well as solutions. It covers three main types of pollution: land, water, and air pollution. Land pollution stems from waste disposal, pesticides, mining, and urbanization. Water pollution comes from waste water, agriculture, oil, and river dumping. Air pollution is caused by vehicle and factory emissions, wildfires, and warfare. Global warming and the greenhouse effect are explained, noting the gases involved and consequences like rising temperatures, extreme weather, and habitat damage. Individual actions to reduce pollution and global warming are suggested like using less energy and driving less.
Pollution of air and water
Air and water pollution are caused by the release of harmful substances into the environment. Air pollution comes from burning fossil fuels which releases gases and chemicals. Smog is a type of air pollution caused by smoke from coal burning. The Great Smog of London in 1952 resulted from industrial pollution and weather, killing thousands. Water pollution occurs when chemicals contaminate bodies of water, degrading quality. The Jiyeh power plant oil spill in 2006 leaked 30,000 tons of oil into the Mediterranean sea after the plant's tanks were bombed. Prevention efforts include reducing vehicle and fireplace use, properly disposing waste, and reporting polluters.
Global warming
Global warming occurs when greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trap heat in the atmosphere, causing the planet to warm up. This is harmful because many plants and animals cannot adapt to the temperature changes and die off. The primary causes of global warming are human activities like burning fossil fuels, which release greenhouse gases into the air. Effects of global warming include rising sea levels from melting ice caps that can flood island communities, more severe weather events, and destruction of forests by fires and acid rain. While major changes need to be made by governments and industry, small individual actions like conserving energy can also help address the problem.

Major environmental issues in india
Major environmental issues in India stem from uncontrolled urbanization, industrialization, and agricultural expansion which have led to problems like land and forest degradation, resource depletion, loss of biodiversity, and poor water and sanitation. India faces high levels of pollution, including over 400 million people living along the heavily contaminated Ganges River. Widespread deforestation since British colonialism has exacerbated issues like soil erosion, reduced air quality, and changed weather patterns. India's large population and growing economy have further strained land and resources, worsening problems like habitat destruction, air pollution, and water scarcity. Improved conservation efforts and more sustainable development are needed to address the country's serious environmental issues.
Environmental issues
This document discusses various environmental issues. It begins by defining environmental issues as those created by human activities that can harm the environment. Major issues discussed include overpopulation, hydrological issues, nuclear issues, land use issues, intensive farming/agriculture, climate change, environmental health hazards, and environmental pollution/degradation. Each issue is then defined and its impacts on the environment are described. The document provides an overview of key environmental problems resulting from human activities.
Pollution
Pollution is damaging the Earth's ecosystems of water, land, and air, and by destroying the planet we destroy ourselves. Water pollution occurs from garbage causing bacteria and diseases like gastroenteritis. Air pollution results from toxic emissions that can cause burning eyes, nose irritation, throat itching, and respiratory issues. Land pollution from soil contamination changes the structure and environment, risking natural disasters such as floods, droughts, runoff, and landslides.
Causes of the global warming
The document discusses several causes of global warming and environmental degradation, including greenhouse gas emissions from human activities that are enhancing the greenhouse effect and warming the planet. It also describes threats such as deforestation, oil spills, industrial and municipal waste, water pollution and air pollution from traffic, factories and other sources. All of these human impacts on the environment are exacerbating problems like climate change due to increased waste, pollution and consumption from a growing global population.
Effects of Deforestation on Climatic Condition in Urban Context
Group E's presentation discusses the effects of deforestation on climate and the environment. It notes that deforestation reduces forest cover from 30% globally to 5% in Pakistan. This causes climate change by reducing humidity and rainfall. Deforestation also increases carbon dioxide in the air from industries and urban development, contributing to global warming. Other effects include more extreme weather, worsening air pollution like smog, and negative health impacts on humans such as heart attacks, coughing, and skin problems from higher temperatures.
Global and local environmental problems
The document discusses global and local environmental problems. Three global issues covered are global warming, water pollution, and air pollution. Global warming is primarily caused by too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels and deforestation. Water pollution stems from industrial waste, sewage, mining, marine dumping, and oil leaks. Air pollution sources include power plants, vehicle emissions, industry, deforestation, wood fires, smoking, and natural processes. The document also briefly mentions local waste disposal issues.
Human influence of environment
Human activity has significantly impacted the environment through population growth, pollution, and resource use. The burning of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide that cause global warming, while activities like deforestation and intensive farming damage habitats and pollute land and water sources. These human influences disrupt natural ecosystems and threaten many plant and animal species with extinction. Potential solutions involve adopting more sustainable practices like organic farming, pollution control, and developing alternative energy sources to conserve resources for future generations.
Global warming
This document discusses global warming and its causes. It notes that global warming relates to the observed increase in average temperatures around the world in recent years. Both natural phenomena and human activities are potential contributors to global warming. The major greenhouse gases that cause warming are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane and ozone. The document outlines some of the natural causes like methane release from tundra, as well as human-driven causes such as burning fossil fuels. It also lists some potential effects of global warming like sea level rise and species extinction. Prevention methods mentioned include reducing AC and refrigerant use and planting more trees.
Chapter 16.environmental issues by mohanbio
The document discusses various types of pollution including air, water, soil, and radiation pollution. It provides details on the causes and effects of air pollution, describing major air pollutants such as oxides of sulfur and nitrogen. Methods to control air pollution are also outlined, such as electrostatic precipitators and catalytic converters. Water pollution and its effects on biodiversity are then examined, followed by information on other environmental issues like greenhouse effect, global warming, ozone layer depletion, and different forms of waste.
Air pollution
1) Air pollution is the introduction of chemicals, particulate matter, or biological materials into the atmosphere that can harm living organisms or damage the environment.
2) There are several main types of air pollution including smog, acid rain, the greenhouse effect, and depletion of the ozone layer. Indoor air pollution from activities like smoking or cooking can also be harmful.
3) Air pollution has negative health effects on humans and ecosystems. Preventative measures individuals can take include using public transportation, carpooling, practicing energy conservation, minimizing pollution sources like burning waste, and choosing recyclable products.
Environmental Pollution and its causess
The document discusses several major environmental factors including pollution, global warming, overpopulation, natural resource depletion, and waste disposal. It provides details on each of these issues, explaining that pollution stems from industry, vehicles, and toxins in the air, water, and soil. Global warming is caused by greenhouse gas emissions which raise temperatures and melt ice caps. Overpopulation strains scarce resources like water, fuel, and food. Natural resource depletion occurs as fossil fuels are consumed and emitted, contributing to global warming. Waste disposal has become a global crisis as excess waste is produced and improperly disposed of.
Ecosystem
Ecology is the study of ecosystems, which consist of biological communities interacting with their physical environments. An ecosystem includes all the living things in a given area, like plants and animals, along with non-living factors, connected through nutrient cycles and energy flows. Ecosystems provide services like food, water filtration, climate regulation, and cultural benefits. Ecosystems can be small, like a pond, or large, like a forest. They are classified as natural or artificial/human-made and include biomes defined by factors such as plant life and climate. Biomes include terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments.
Lecture 8 ecosystem development
The document discusses the rebound of ecosystems after catastrophe using Mount St. Helens as an example. It then discusses topics such as wildfire research, why water is important, gold mining, loss of biodiversity, desertification, and the carbon market as they relate to ecosystem degradation.
Ecosystems and Evolution
No, the evolution of thicker fur in rabbits in response to a colder climate is an example of natural selection, not coevolution. Coevolution requires adaptations occurring in two or more species that interact and evolve in response to each other over a long period of time. The rabbits evolving on their own in response to the abiotic environment is a case of natural selection.

Importance of biodiversity to humanKinds
Biodiversity is essential for human well-being and survival. It provides vital goods and services like food, medicine, clean air and water. Each species, no matter how small, plays an important role in ecosystem productivity and sustainability. At least 40% of the global economy and 80% of needs of poor people are derived from biological resources. Biodiversity also has immense aesthetic, cultural and spiritual value for humans. While we have benefited from biodiversity in many known ways, most of its benefits are still unknown as important species and ecosystem functions have yet to be discovered. Loss of biodiversity therefore poses a major threat to humanity's future welfare and progress.
Using instructional media
This document discusses the use of instructional media in teaching science. It defines instructional media as tools ranging from simple objects to more advanced technologies that are used to provide concrete learning experiences for students. Examples of instructional media include models, specimens, films, diagrams and audiovisual equipment. The document outlines various types of instructional media and provides suggestions for their effective use in the classroom, such as choosing age-appropriate materials, involving students in media creation, and using local resources. When implemented correctly, instructional media can enrich science teaching by making abstract concepts more accessible and engaging students' multiple senses.
Human activities that affect natural ecosystems
The document discusses several environmental issues including population growth, pollution, habitat loss, and climate change. It explains how burning fossil fuels increases greenhouse gas emissions and warms the planet. It also describes how industrialization and pollution threaten biodiversity by destroying natural habitats and poisoning ecosystems. The text advocates for conservation efforts to protect wildlife, natural resources, and switch to more sustainable practices.
Human Impact On The Environment
Human activities like population growth, industrialization, and burning fossil fuels increase carbon dioxide levels and pollution which damage the environment. Acid rain forms from sulphates and nitrates released by burning fossil fuels, acidifying lakes and killing wildlife. Deforestation reduces habitats and biodiversity while pesticides and herbicides have unintended harmful consequences, accumulating in ecosystems. Ozone depletion was directly caused by CFCs from aerosols destroying the ozone layer. Water pollution from oil and gasoline spills contaminates drinking water. The Exxon Valdez spill demonstrated these dangers as global warming increases due to rising greenhouse gases.

Environmental pollution.pptx
Air pollution is caused by the release of harmful gases, particles, and molecules into the atmosphere from sources such as the burning of fossil fuels, automobile emissions, factory and industrial operations, mining activities, and global warming. Burning fossil fuels emits sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide, while incomplete fossil fuel combustion releases greenhouse gases. Automobiles are major sources of greenhouse gases that can cause respiratory diseases. Factories and industries release carbon monoxide and chemicals that degrade air quality. Mining releases dust and chemicals that endanger worker and community health. Emitted greenhouse gases cause global warming by trapping heat and raising earth's temperature, threatening ecosystems and communities through melting glaciers, rising seas, and flooded areas. The effects of air pollution
Human induced climate change
Global warming is caused by human activities that release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere. Burning fossil fuels for transportation, electricity, manufacturing, and other industrial processes are major contributors. Deforestation, livestock farming, and other agricultural practices also release greenhouse gases. If changes are not made to reduce emissions over the next decade, the planet will face irreversible environmental catastrophe and societal impacts.
EMERGNECE OF ENVIRONMENT ISSUES
The document provides an overview of environmental issues that have emerged due to industrialization, urbanization, and agricultural advancement. It discusses how the industrial revolution led to immense fossil fuel consumption and air/water pollution. Urbanization complemented industrial development but also caused habitat destruction and modification. Agricultural progress through the green revolution introduced chemicals that degraded soils and contributed to deforestation, desertification, and climate change. Rising population growth, greenhouse gas emissions, and pollution are exacerbating issues like global warming, ozone layer depletion, and acid rain. The document lists key environmental problems and their negative impacts on ecosystems and economies.

Stack and its usage in assembly language
The document discusses stacks, which are data structures that follow the LIFO (last in, first out) principle. It describes basic stack operations like push, pop, and peeking at the top element. Stacks can be implemented using arrays, vectors, or linked lists. In assembly language, the stack segment register SS and stack pointer SP are used to manage the call stack, temporarily storing return addresses and register values. PUSH adds an item to the top of the stack, while POP removes the top item.
Biochem
This document discusses the components of the extracellular matrix (ECM), focusing on glycosaminoglycans. It explains that glycosaminoglycans are large heteropolysaccharide chains that bind water to form a gel-like matrix. They associate with small amounts of protein to form proteoglycans. Glycosaminoglycans provide flexibility and structure to the ECM and influence movement through it. They bind with water and structural proteins like collagen and elastin to form the body's ground substance and ECM. Most glycosaminoglycans are found attached to core proteins to form proteoglycan monomers in a "bottle brush" structure.

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.
Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
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.

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.

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.

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.

Environment
- 1. Environment • An "environment" is the whole of surrounding things OR • the surroundings of humankind
- 2. Environmental issues of Pakistan • A variety of environmental problems now affect our Pakistan. As globalization continues and the earth's natural processes transform local problems into international issues.
- 3. Environmental issues of Pakistan • Some of the largest problems now affecting the Pakistan are: • Acid Rain • Air Pollution • Global Warming • Ozone Depletion • Smog • Water Pollution • Overpopulation • Rain Forest Destruction
- 4. AIR POLLUTION Every day, the average person inhales about 20,000 liters of air. Every time we breathe, we risk inhaling dangerous chemicals that have found their way into the air. Air pollution includes all contaminants found in the atmosphere. These dangerous substances can be either in the form of gases or particles.
- 5. Fundamental Causes of Air Pollution • Industrialization set in motion the widespread use of fossil fuels which are now the main drivers of pollution as we know it.
- 6. • Population growth causes the demand for food and other goods to go up, which is met by expanded production and use of natural resources. This then leads to higher levels of atmospheric pollution.
- 7. • Globalization has in a way become a facilitator of air pollution. Big industry takes advantage of lax environmental controls in developing nations and moves its manufacturing facilities to such “pollution havens” from where air pollution travels around the world without any obstacles.
- 8. Air Pollution Effects Atmospheric pollution would be such a big problem, its harmful effects on humans, animals, trees and the wider environment. Air pollutants enter the body primarily through the respiratory system which thus becomes their main victim. Each air pollutant exerts their own specific adverse impacts, ranging from mild to really damaging.
