The role of trees in sustaining soil productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa
Trees can help address global challenges like climate change, water scarcity, food insecurity, and land degradation. In sub-Saharan Africa, trees may help break the cycle of poverty through agroforestry. The document discusses how 19th century concerns about depleted soils led to fertilizers addressing food needs in the 20th century. However, issues remain like water scarcity, land degradation, and climate change impacts. Agroforestry that matches trees to household and ecosystem needs has potential to improve livelihoods and sustainability in sub-Saharan Africa if adopted widely.
Analysis On Human Population & Consumption on Environment
The document analyzes how human population growth and consumption patterns are primary drivers of climate change and their effects on the environment. It discusses how the global population has skyrocketed to 7 billion currently and is projected to increase to between 9.6 and 12.3 billion by 2100. This population growth directly correlates to increased consumption, industrialization, and their negative environmental impacts like pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Rising consumption and industrialization have depleted the ozone layer, increased global temperatures, and disrupted ecosystems through effects such as coral bleaching and decreased agricultural productivity. To sustain future populations, food production would need to increase by at least 50% but climate change could cut crop yields by over 25%, highlighting the paradox of population growth stressing

This document discusses plants and animals as natural resources. It notes that plants and animals are important for food, materials, fuel, air quality, and as habitat. However, both face threats from habitat loss, climate change, invasive species, soil erosion, and pollution. A graph shows the increasing percentage of threatened species between 2000-2011. Plants and animals are interrelated through food chains and shared habitats, so environmental issues affect both. Their decline jeopardizes sustainability as humans rely on both for survival.

Climate change poses the greatest threat to human health according to the document. While progress has benefited humanity, it has negatively impacted health by increasing carbon emissions. We must all work together to reduce our carbon footprint through renewable energy and low-carbon supply chains. Making this transition and joining global efforts to mitigate climate change can help build more resilient communities and heal the world.
Conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável
Sustainable development is defined as development that meets current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It promotes the idea that social, environmental, and economic progress can be achieved within the natural limits of our planet's resources. An ecological footprint measures human consumption of natural resources against the Earth's capacity to regenerate them, accounting for factors like food, housing, transportation, and consumption habits to determine how much of the planet's resources an individual or group requires. A relationship can be established between sustainable development and ecological footprint, as sustainable development aims to reduce resource use within environmental limits, while ecological footprint quantifies current resource use and its sustainability.
Ecosystem change and human health: an overview of the HEAL program
This document summarizes the work of the HEAL (Health and Ecosystems: Analysis of Linkages) program. It discusses how environmental change can impact human health through changes in wildlife populations, food supply, and nutrient intake. Specifically, it presents a case study on how wildlife declines in Madagascar are linked to increased malnutrition. It outlines the HEAL methodology which involves collecting dietary, health, and biological data. The results indicate strong reliance on wild foods and associations between consumption of bushmeat and improved nutrition. The document emphasizes the importance of ecosystems for nutrition and highlights mortality risks from malnutrition.

Why Is Biodiversity Important 13062014
Biodiversity is important for both economic and ecological reasons. At least 40% of the world's economy and 80% of the needs of the poor are derived from biological resources. Each species, no matter how small, plays an important role in ecosystem productivity and sustainability. The loss of biodiversity threatens food and medicine sources as well as ecosystem services like water and soil protection. Current extinction rates are approaching 1,000 times higher than the natural background rate due to human activity.
BIO 130 Exam 2
Sea otters play an important role in kelp forest ecosystems by eating sea urchins that damage kelp. Without sea otters, sea urchin populations would rise and destroy much of the kelp, drastically changing the ecosystem and harming the many species that depend on kelp. Photosynthesis converts the sun's energy into chemical energy in sugars, which forms the base of the food web and supports all life.
Fcat biology review scg 2.4.2
This document discusses ecological succession and population ecology. It describes how ecosystems change over time in response to disturbances through primary and secondary succession. Primary succession occurs on new surfaces without soil, while secondary succession follows disturbances that do not destroy existing soil. It also explains how populations change due to factors like births, deaths, immigration and emigration. Populations can grow exponentially under ideal conditions but typically experience logistic growth limited by carrying capacity. Limiting factors like resources, space and disease can restrict population growth.
The Magic Number
Climate change and overpopulation worsen each other as climate change intensifies overpopulation and more people impacts climate change. The UN predicts global population will hit 10 billion by 2050. As population increases, human impact on the environment grows through consumption, land and resource use, and greenhouse gas emissions. Deforestation impacts biodiversity both directly and indirectly through habitat loss and temperature rise. How species will cope with future habitat shifts from climate change is uncertain and may lead to more extinctions. Manipulating the I=PAT equation of human impact may help address the interconnected problems of population growth, consumption, technology, and their effects on climate change and biodiversity loss.

Food and Climate Change presentation by Jessica Paddock at the BSA Climate Change Study Group Conference on 17 January 2011 at the British Library Conference Centre, London, UK.Overpopulation by The Eco Warriors (Samuel Amid Jr, et al)
Overpopulation occurs when the human population exceeds the environmental carrying capacity of Earth. Falling mortality rates due to advances in medicine and food production contributed to unchecked population growth. Migration to cities also increased populations, concentrating their environmental impact. Unrestrained consumption of resources has led to environmental degradation from pollution, deforestation, and species extinction as the population deficit is reached earlier each year. Potential solutions discussed include increasing access to sex education and contraception, promoting family planning, and educating people about the dangers of overpopulation.
Introduction to permaculture 1
This is the slideshow i am using now (2013) to open design courses. This part goes over a bit of my background, a bit of history and inspiration for permaculture and its development, and the state of the world. It also begins to explore how permaculture is manifested in the world which is a reflection of the 14 chapters of the Designers manual which acts as a framework for how the course is structured.
Permaculture design I- intro, state of the world, ethics and principles 1-4
This document discusses the principles and design of permaculture. Permaculture is defined as the harmonious integration of ecosystems and human systems to create self-sustaining landscapes. It aims to mimic natural patterns to build interconnected systems that are productive, efficient, and abundant. The key principles of permaculture design include observing natural relationships and patterns in nature, ensuring multiple functions for all design elements, and placing elements in zones based on their needs and how often they are used by people. Permaculture provides solutions for sustainably meeting human needs while protecting the environment.
SUSTAINABILITY GLOBAL CHALLANGES
The document discusses major global challenges related to sustainability, including climate change, sustainable development, poverty, inequality, food and water scarcity, and more. It provides details on the impacts of climate change on human health and the challenges of ensuring sustainable water and food/agriculture. The speaker argues that with accelerating issues threatening the planet, there is a growing need for sustainable alternatives to address these interconnected problems facing humanity.
Ldb Permacultura_Kent food crisis 20
The document discusses several issues related to global food, water, and climate crisis. It includes quotes from Wendell Berry about the benefits of local food economies and the problems created when animal and plant agriculture are separated. It also provides statistics on the large amount of fuel energy required by the US food system, estimating that it takes 15 calories of fuel to produce 1 calorie of food. This energy use is equivalent to 420 gallons of gasoline per person per year. The document questions why genetically modified technologies meant to address global hunger are being transferred to developing countries when they have not been proven to work successfully in developed nations. It sees genetically modified organisms as being driven more by business and profit motives rather than truly solving problems.

A photograph of the decisive decade we are facing, the perfect storm of environmental, economic and growth crisis we are facing and some possible ways to help the transition from this old unsustainable system to a new world order sustained by a new approach of global prosperity, justice and sustainability.Final stewardship
The world population has grown rapidly and exceeded the Earth's carrying capacity, causing issues like depletion of natural resources, environmental problems, water scarcity, destruction of rainforests and fisheries overexploitation. By 2050, the world population is projected to reach at least 9 billion people, which will increase the demand for food and fuel and likely outpace food production. This unsustainable population growth threatens our planet's life support systems and risks exacerbating problems like global warming, extreme weather, and loss of biodiversity if no action is taken to transition to a greener economy and more sustainable consumption and production.
Sustainability Explained
Sustainable eating refers to choosing foods that can be produced and consumed over the long-term in a way that balances environmental, social, and economic needs. Sustainable foods are often organically produced to avoid pollution from chemicals and have fewer production steps, like vegetables, fruits and sustainably-raised meat and dairy, which require fewer resources than highly processed foods. Choosing sustainable foods helps reduce environmental costs while supporting organic farmers and taking care of human health.

This document discusses concerns about global warming and our responsibility towards the environment. It notes that while our scientific knowledge has grown, other insights from ethics and religion regarding our relationship with the planet should also be considered. It discusses how human exploitation of natural resources since the Industrial Revolution has disturbed nature's balance. While a return to a primitive lifestyle is not feasible, a proper balance is needed between human progress and environmental protection. The document advocates that we act as stewards of the Earth and consider both present and future generations as well as international equity in tackling climate change.
Tool Time - HEI
This document discusses the interaction between humans and the environment. It explores how the environment affects humans and how humanity affects the environment. Specifically, it covers the topics of sustainability, problems of human destruction of resources, the three pillars of sustainability (environment, economy, society), and the debate between environmental determinism versus possibilism on the influence of geography on social development and people's ability to change their environment.
Sustainable gastronomy by anthimos georgiou
This document discusses gastronomy and sustainability. It identifies several problems with the current food system including overconsumption, waste, monoculture farming, industrialization, beef consumption, and use of fertilizers and pesticides. These issues compromise sustainability and ethics is often sacrificed for money. The document proposes trends for the future like sustainable sourcing, resource efficiency, and sustainable consumption and production. It envisions future foods including novel proteins, whole animal cookery, food sharing, and urban agriculture. The overall message is that gastronomy must move towards more sustainable and ethical practices to meet the needs of the present without compromising the future.
Introduction to permaculture @1
Permaculture is a holistic approach to designing human settlements and agricultural systems that mimic natural ecosystems. It uses techniques such as agroforestry, integrated farming, and regenerative design principles to create sustainable and self-sufficient communities. The term was coined in the 1970s and is now practiced in over 100 countries. Permaculture seeks to harmoniously integrate humans, natural environments, and local cultures by establishing permanent agriculture and communities that improve landscapes and living standards while being environmentally friendly and sustainable for the future.
Grieco - Global Warming
Global warming is a natural process enhanced by human activities like industry and transportation that emit greenhouse gases. It leads to a steady rise in Earth's temperatures which can cause changes to rainfall patterns, sea level rise, and impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. The document discusses global warming causes, effects, and ways for individuals to help address it through education and reducing their own environmental footprint.
Kinds of ecosystem and communities
Here are the answers to the quiz:
1. Temperature
2. Precipitation
3. Elevation
4. Australian desert
5. A forest occurring in tropical areas of heavy rain.
6. Chaparral
7. Tundra
8. Arctic fox
9. Grassland receives between 25- 75 cm of rain annually while savanna receives 50-150 cm.
10. Savanna has scattered trees while grassland does not have trees.
The Urogenital System
The document summarizes the urinary and reproductive systems. It describes the key functions of the urinary system as excretion of wastes and regulation of water, salt, and acid-base balance. It then details the structures of the human kidney including nephrons, collecting ducts and the bladder. It also describes the female reproductive system including ovaries, oviducts, uterus, and hormonal regulation, and the male reproductive system including testes, accessory glands, and spermatogenesis. Comparative anatomy of excretory and reproductive organs across species is also discussed.
Plant histology
Plant tissues can be divided into 3 main categories - dermal, vascular and ground tissues. There are three types of plant tissues - meristematic, permanent and complex permanent tissues. Meristematic tissues are found in apical, lateral and intercalary meristems and allow for plant growth. Permanent tissues such as parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma do not divide. Complex permanent tissues include xylem and phloem which transport water and nutrients. Plant tissues have many economic uses including food, furniture, clothing fibers, horticulture, and conservation of endangered species.

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.
Sustainable development

EVS Unit 1.pptx
The environment plays an important role in sustaining life on Earth. It consists of living and non-living elements that influence human existence. The environment functions by providing resources, sustaining life, assimilating waste, and enhancing quality of life. It is made up of various components like the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, biosphere and involves cultural and social aspects. Environmental studies have a wide scope covering conservation, ecology, pollution control, population impacts and more. Achieving sustainable development requires addressing issues like poverty, hunger, health, education, inequality, climate change, and more to transform our world for a better future.
Natural and Agriculture Ecosystem
This document outlines and compares natural ecosystems and agricultural ecosystems. It defines an ecosystem as a biological system consisting of living organisms interacting with each other and their non-living environments. Natural ecosystems exist freely in nature, while agricultural ecosystems are managed by humans for crop and animal production. Some key differences are that natural ecosystems have higher biodiversity and genetic diversity, more complex trophic interactions and habitats, and closed nutrient cycles, while agricultural ecosystems have higher productivity but lower stability and rely on human control and external energy and nutrient inputs. Both provide important services but in different ways.
Sustainable Agriculture
Sustainable agriculture is farming that meets current needs without compromising future generations. It focuses on conserving natural resources, preserving biodiversity, and ensuring economic viability for farmers. Key principles include conservation of resources, biodiversity preservation, and economic viability. Sustainable practices include organic farming, crop rotation, and efficient water management techniques like drip irrigation and rainwater harvesting to optimize resource use. Overall, sustainable agriculture aims to ensure global food security now and in the future through environmentally sound practices.
(01) BIODIVERSITY AND THE HEALTHY SOCIETY.pptx
Biodiversity refers to the variety of plant and animal life on Earth. It is essential for healthy ecosystems and human well-being. Loss of biodiversity due to habitat destruction, pollution, climate change and other human impacts threatens both the environment and human societies. When ecosystems are compromised by loss of biodiversity, they can no longer support human needs for food, water, medicine and other resources to maintain health. Biodiversity also underpins global economies and provides livelihoods for many people. Its loss therefore has significant negative impacts on both environmental and human health.
Biodiversity.pdf
The document discusses the importance of biodiversity for human health and society. It defines biodiversity as the variety of life on Earth, including genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity. Biodiversity is essential for providing food, medicine, clean water and shelter. However, human activities like habitat destruction, pollution and climate change are causing a sixth mass extinction. This impacts human health by reducing access to resources and increasing disease transmission. The document outlines how preserving biodiversity benefits business, livelihoods and protects from disasters. Overall, the health of human societies is interrelated with and dependent on biodiversity and ecosystem health.

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.
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.

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.
