Impacts of Climate Change on Cambodia
The document discusses the impacts of climate change on Cambodia. It provides background information on Cambodia, noting that most of its population lives in rural areas and relies on agriculture, fishing, forestry and river resources for their livelihood. It then discusses how climate change is affecting Cambodia, with rising temperatures and more unpredictable rainfall patterns. Key impacts include threats to people's livelihoods from effects on rice farming, fisheries and natural resources they depend on.
Impacts of Climate Change on Cambodia
Cambodia is vulnerable to floods and droughts which are exacerbated by climate change. Agriculture and fisheries are particularly at risk as they are highly dependent on seasonal rainfall. Floods and droughts have previously caused major damage and losses, contributing to widespread poverty across Cambodia. Many Cambodians live in high risk areas and rely on agriculture for their livelihoods, so long-term risks of climate change like water insecurity, sea level rise, and disruption of ecosystems threaten their livelihoods and food security.

Hawaii faces several environmental issues including beach pollution from plastic waste making up 47% of shoreline debris, coral decay with 10% of corals at Hanauma Bay having died, and a mandate for Hawaii to transition to 100% renewable energy by 2045 which will be a significant challenge.
CLAA component of Crooked Lake Management Plan
The Crooked Lake Area Association drafted a comprehensive management plan to address issues affecting Crooked Lake such as invasive species, muck, nonpoint source pollution, and trash. The plan's goals are to develop a 3D map of the lake substrate, identify strategies to restore lakeshore habitat, increase native plants, reduce impacts of milfoil and curly leaf pondweed, reduce siltation and pollution. Activities include chemical treatments, plant restoration, buffer strips, boat inspections, and increased garbage collection. The estimated costs range from $6,000 to $16,400 annually from 2009-2013. Potential funding sources include membership dues, city contributions, grants, taxes.
7 kathy hughes chalk streams & water stewardship
Chalkstreams are unique English rivers that are over-abstracted and impacted by diffuse pollution, channel modification, and invasive species, preventing them from achieving good ecological status. WWF-UK partners with businesses like Coca-Cola to improve water stewardship in catchments. They work with farmers to reduce agricultural impacts through solutions that benefit both the environment and business. WWF-UK also partners on river restoration projects, and works to quantify the water benefits of these projects to demonstrate returns on investment to partners.
Alastair Driver Multiple Benefits
This document discusses how river and wetland restoration, flood management projects, coastal erosion management, and sustainable land use can provide multiple environmental, social, and economic benefits. It provides examples from various projects in the UK that have improved biodiversity, increased recreation time for local communities, reduced flooding risks, and improved water quality by removing barriers to natural flows. For instance, a managed coastal realignment project in Somerset that cost £10 million provided £12 million in storm protection benefits while generating an estimated £1 million annually in other ecosystem services.
Delegation re water conservation
We have met our water conservation goals. The document summarizes the author's perspective that the Comox Valley region does not actually have a water shortage problem despite previous claims. He argues the original comparisons used to justify water metering and conservation projects were misleading, and that current water usage is well within licensing limits. The author concludes spending on conservation should stop as the region has plenty of water and operates within guidelines, and that previous water restriction bylaws should be reinstated.
World Fisheries Congress 2012 Presentation
1. Researchers used a hydrodynamic model to examine potential risks to migrating Atlantic salmon from marine renewable energy projects in the Pentland Firth region of Scotland.
2. The model simulated salmon migration trajectories and interactions with hypothetical tidal turbine arrays. It found the location of arrays and salmon behavior could influence collision risk.
3. The model demonstrated a potential approach for assessing relative impacts of proposed arrays, but has limitations like not accounting for tidal flow modifications or fully representing salmon behavior. More real-world data is still needed.

Another example is China's Three Gorges Dam, the world's largest hydroelectric power station, which has benefits but also issues like relocation of residents, siltation, and ecological impacts. The document also introduces the concept of water footprint to examine water use linked to the global economy.
Feel the water know blue color kochkin
The document discusses various facts about water. It notes that while water covers 70% of the planet, only 1% is accessible for human consumption. Access to water has led to over 500 conflicts and 21 disputes resulting in military action over the past 50 years. The document also discusses how water is the basic component of life, as animals and plants consist largely of water. Additionally, it outlines how loss of water from the body can lead to health issues and even death. The document concludes by discussing the secret of water memory and how understanding water's unique properties could allow people to control processes in the world.
Economic growth and water
China is experiencing rapid economic growth and urbanization, which is increasing demand for water resources. As China industrializes, farmland is being converted to industrial use, putting more pressure on water supplies. Groundwater levels are declining and many rivers are drying up due to overuse. Pollution from industry is also contaminating water sources, threatening food and water security and ecosystem health. Large infrastructure projects like the Three Gorges Dam aim to help meet growing water demands but may have unintended environmental and social consequences.
Global Water Crisis
Global water crisis is a serious issue affecting many regions of the world. Over 1/3 of the global population lacks access to clean drinking water. Lack of access to sanitation is linked to poverty and disproportionately impacts developing countries. Rapid population growth and development are straining water resources in many places through overuse, pollution, and depletion of sources. Improving access to clean water and sanitation worldwide is critical for public health, but achieving universal access remains a challenge.

IPCC special report on renewable energy sources
Renewable energy sources can help address increasing energy demand and reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels. The technical potential of renewable energy exceeds current energy needs, and costs are decreasing although still higher than existing energy sources. Advancements are needed in areas like transmission infrastructure, energy storage, demand management and forecasting to allow high shares of renewable energy integration.
Energising fiji islands
This document discusses energizing the Fiji Islands through renewable energy and energy efficiency measures. It notes that most Pacific Island Countries currently rely on expensive diesel generation for electricity. Fiji in particular relies heavily on diesel, with renewable sources like hydro providing a small portion of its energy mix. Climate change also poses serious threats to many Pacific Islands. The document then outlines various renewable energy options that have been implemented or could be implemented in Fiji and the Pacific region. These include solar home systems, mini-hydro projects, biomass, biofuels and wind. It also discusses the inefficiency and environmental impacts of kerosene lighting currently used by many off-grid households and promotes LED and solar lighting as healthier, cheaper alternatives.

Critique on climate responses
The document criticizes approaches to climate change that rely on market-based solutions, carbon trading, and funding from institutions like the World Bank. It argues for grassroots-led solutions focused on social justice, sustainable production and consumption, and shifting away from capitalist and neoliberal systems toward planned economies based on human needs. Addressing climate change requires bold action from both individuals and governments, not passive waiting or policies that allow corporations to profit from the crisis.
Impacts of cc in central asia (case study uzbekistan)
Uzbekistan is highly dependent on irrigated agriculture which uses over 90% of its available water resources. It has experienced increasing temperatures, irregular precipitation patterns, and a significant water shortage exacerbated by the shrinking of the Aral Sea. The entire population is affected by water shortages and higher temperatures, but farmers and others reliant on water availability for their livelihoods are most at risk. A severe drought in 2000 impacted over 1 million people and the government required international aid, demonstrating the country's vulnerability to climate change impacts.
Impacts of Climate Change on Cambodia
The document discusses several issues related to water quality and usage along the SeSan River in Cambodia, as reported by the Culture and Environment Preservation Association (CEPA). Water levels are shallow in parts of the river. Water quality and how local communities use the river's water are examined. Traditional socio-cultural practices related to water are also covered. Problems women face and lack of fish are noted. Water quality is assessed in one village in particular. Low water levels in the river at times are also mentioned. CEPA closes by questioning the potential negative impacts of climate change on local livelihoods.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Editor's Notes
- It is now a established fact that climate change is happening. Although developing countries have contributed least to cause the global warming, it is under threat of its impact. A projection carried out by leading research institutions provides one scenario of temperature increase when the world continued “business as usual.” The days will be hotter, and the hot season will be longer, too.
- Precipitation (rain fall) patterns will be affected. We may have more erratic frequency and intensity of rainfalls, including tropical storms. More precipitation does not necessarily mean longer rainy season: it could be more intense rain within a short period causing floods. Or vise versa, droughts.
- So how prepared are we in Southeast Asia to face climate change, which is already happening? According to a recent study by EEPSEA, the region is highly vulnerable to its impacts. Here the vulnerability is measured by looking at degree of risk / exposure to climatic hazards, sensitivity due to population density etc., as well as adaptive capacity of people or society as a composite index of socio-economic factors, technology and infrastructure. Capacity to adapt to climate change and overall climate change vulnerability is closely correlated with the level of development. That means the less a country is developed in socio-economic and human development terms, the more the country is vulnerable to climate change. Note Cambodia’s high vulnerability in this map.
- Then what do we know about Cambodia? The first assessment looking at the country’s future climate change scenario and vulnerability was carried out in 2001 by the Ministry of Environment, with support from UNDP and the Global Environment Facility. The study concluded that the temperature is going to increase up to 1.35 to 2.5 degrees Celcius by the next century. That feels a long way, but temperature increase is gradual and even half a degree increase could have various effects. Rainfall pattern will also change, with more erratic climatic events which would greatly affect agriculture of the country. Furthermore, tropical storms and other climatic events are not necessarily a result of temperature increase in Cambodia only. Remember, we are all under one global climate.
