Global environmental education program that trains volunteers to conserve natural resources for future generations and protect human health.It strives for protecting human health in a community by promoting environmental stewardship.It is a grass roots environmental program which unites parents , teachers and Students to create a culture of conservation among people and community.
Introduction, Theme of the environment day, Role of teachers in environmental education, How the environment impact our health, How can we celebrate the day, Dangerous or Hazardous Waste, Seven Billion Dreams, Our planet consume with care, Examples such as Radioactivity wastes, Soil erosion
Conserving energy is one of the most basic concepts involved in going green. Simple strategies such as turning off the lights when leaving and turning the water off while brushing your teeth can go a long way.
Companies today, move towards green as the consumers are concerned about the natural surroundings. Natural environmental influence our day-today lives in many ways, yet only few academics have discussed green issues in Sri Lankan context. Hence, this paper is an attempt to investigate the consumers purchasing behavior and attitudes towards eco-friendly fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) with special reference to cosmetics &personal care products.
The ppt is about go green. This presentation talks about how we can go green and what are the different ways of going green. It also talks about the effects of global warming on earth and what are the ill effects.
Your community can play a role in preserving resources, reducing waste, and spreading the word about the importance of recycling. View our infographic about waste management solutions.
The beginning of Earth Day dates back in 1968 when the Human Ecology Symposium was held. With the
U.S. Public Health Service, Morton Hilbert organized an environmental conference for students where they
could learn more from scientists about the effects of environmental degradation on human health. For the
next two years, Hilbert and the students worked to plan the first Earth Day. In April 1970, along with a federal
proclamation from the U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson, the first Earth Day was officially held. This day impelled
the U.S. Congress to develop some of the most significant environmental legislation.
This is great powerpoint presentation on all facets of "going green". It was originally developed for students in conjuction with some Earth Day activities in 2009. Please feel free to share this with your group.

Where basics are still not in place, Green is an evolved ambition
Green Consumption is yet to hit mainstream India, but there are pockets of activism. This presentation looks at an overview of the state of green in India and shares some examples of attitudes of individuals, and actions by corporates, NGOs and governments.
A Study on the Effect of Climate Emergency in Urban India and with Growing Po...ijtsrd
New policy is required to tackle the problem of climate emergency in the Indian subcontinent, urban India is devasting effected by this catastrophe with its growing population and lack of natural resources which has created pressure on the environment. Unlimited use of natural resources with continues mining and logging over the years have ultimately led to climate change. The government has introduced many schemes to control the effect of climate change in India with Domestic solar assignment, Domestic assignment on supportable habitat under the Nation Action Plan. Solar panels are being installed to produce electricity, green building, use of electric cars and buses are being launched in the India urban region. Solid waste management is a major problem which needs to be looked at. Floods cyclone are at rise, droughts have resulted in many rural people migrating to the urban region for jobs, it is estimated that the population by 2050 will rise to 50 in urban India for which Urban areas need to prepared itself to challenge the collision of climate emergency and further development needs to be made taken into consideration resilient development and sustainable development with an environmental friendly approach.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Editor's Notes
More than 1.2 billion jobs depend on a stable environment and ecosystems.
The Green Initiative is one such initiative by the ILO which aims to scale up the knowledge, policy response and capacity to manage a just transition toward greener economies and a sustainable future.
A healthy planet is a necessary condition to guarantee decent work, productive enterprises and sustainable livelihoods.
Launched in 2019, the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) aimed at a long-term, time-bound, national-level strategy to tackle the air pollution problem across the country in a comprehensive manner with targets to achieve a 20 percent to 30 percent reduction in particulate matter concentrations by 2024, keeping 2017 as the base year.
For urban areas, the scheme is looked over by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs while the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation is responsible for rural areas.
Nearly 26,563 Swachh Bharat activities have been concluded with over 51,326 active participants. Phase I of the mission was completed in October 2019 while Phase II of the mission will last till 2024-25.
Launched under the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the GSDP offers vocational training programmes focusing on soft or ‘green’ skills. Green skills contribute to preserving or restoring environmental quality for a sustainable future and include jobs that protect ecosystems and biodiversity, reduce energy and minimize waste and pollution.
Namami Gange Programme’ is a flagship programme launched in June 2014 with a budget outlay of Rs.20,000 crore to accomplish the twin objectives of effective abatement of pollution, conservation and rejuvenation of the National River Ganga.
The programme has eight focus points including Sewage Treatment Infrastructure, River Surface Cleaning, Afforestation, Industrial Effluent Monitoring, Ganga Gram, Public Awareness, River Front Development and Bio-Diversity.
Also known as ‘Tree man of India,’ Yoganathan is a Coimbatore bus driver who has planted around three lakh saplings over the past 30 years. He has contributed over 40% of his salary to contribute to the purpose of protecting the environment. Due to his efforts, the Tamil government has given him the title of “Suttru Suzhal Sevai Veerar” or the “Eco-Warrior.”
