Salad bar ethnography
This document appears to be notes from a student's ethnographic research project on observations made at the student center salad bar. It includes details on the number of male and female subjects observed, what foods items they selected, physical descriptions of some subjects, and initial findings which note that twice as many females than males were observed and the salad bar could be made more appealing to males.
Slideshow
The document discusses efforts by the Cusheon Lake Stewardship Committee to protect Cusheon Lake on Salt Spring Island from cyanobacteria blooms through watershed protection. It outlines the committee's history and collaboration with other groups. It describes cyanobacteria and the toxins they produce, which can be harmful to humans and animals. It emphasizes that prevention through protecting natural vegetation in the watershed is important, as water treatment methods are often ineffective at removing these toxins. The document warns of challenges like unauthorized land clearing that release phosphorus and harm water quality.
Plastics
Plastics pose a threat to birds. Studies have shown that many birds mistake plastic debris for food and die from ingesting plastic. Autopsies of deceased Laysan Albatross chicks found their stomachs filled with plastic trash. While recycling is important, reducing plastic use is also key to protecting wildlife and the environment. The document provides tips for reducing plastic use such as avoiding plastic straws, bags, bottles, and opting for reusable items instead of single-use plastics.

This document discusses the global issues associated with lack of access to safe drinking water. Key points include:
- Over 2 million people, mostly children, die every year from water-borne diseases. Half of hospital beds are occupied by patients suffering from such illnesses.
- 80% of diseases in developing nations are caused by contaminated water. Six thousand children die daily from lack of access to safe drinking water.
- The document then provides some basic information about water treatment in the US and Mexico to purify drinking water and make it safer. It concludes with boiling being an effective method for water purification.
Desalination of seawater
The document proposes designing a process to desalinate seawater using 75% recycled materials in Samoa. It considers building a reflective structure to focus sunlight on a water containment device to separate salt from water through evaporation. Three design ideas are brainstormed: a parabolic cooker, panel cooker, and box cooker. The parabolic cooker uses an umbrella and bottle that needs adjusting every ten minutes. The panel cooker uses foil-covered cardboard panels that don't need frequent adjustment. The box cooker is simplest to make, using two cardboard boxes and foil-covered lid. Condensed fresh water would fall into an aluminum tin for collection.
Ocean Pollution
Ocean pollution, especially from plastic, is a serious problem that harms ocean life. Tens of thousands of animals like fish, seabirds, turtles, seals, and other sea mammals die every year from eating plastic or getting tangled in it. As plastic breaks down in the ocean, it releases toxic chemicals that enter the food chain and can harm humans. Individuals can help reduce plastic pollution by using reusable bags, water bottles, and recycling disposable plastics to help protect ocean animals and the environment.
The green protectors
The document discusses the environmental damage humans have caused to the planet over many years through advancing technology and industrialization. It notes that Earth was once covered in an exquisite green skin but that human intelligence and power have been used against the planet. It states that while technology has improved quality of life, it has also led to the extinction of many species and thrown the planet's balance off. It concludes by mentioning flooding in the Bolivar neighborhood as an example of the severity of environmental problems humans now face as a consequence of their actions.
Maa mangla basti__urbanization_leads_the_ecological_disruption
Maa Mangla Basti is a linear settlement located near Buddha Park in Bhubaneswar, Odisha with 156 households. It was previously rich in biodiversity with two ponds containing many natural flora, fauna, birds, fish and tortoises. However, as the population increased from 2001 to 2018, dumping of waste and fecal matter in the ponds polluted the water sources and led to loss of natural vegetation and filling of spaces with garbage. Through community participation initiatives, sanitary toilets have been constructed, cluster septic tanks installed, piped water connections provided, water quality testing implemented, and direct discharge into ponds stopped with plantation efforts ongoing to restore the ecological balance impacted by urban
Big Island Dairy: Going Green
The document discusses dairy farm pollution and how Big Island Dairy in Hawaii is pursuing more sustainable practices. It notes that manure from dairy farms can contaminate water sources and increase greenhouse gases like methane. Big Island Dairy has 1300 cows and grows corn as feed on 2500 acres. To be more sustainable, the dairy plans to expand with new barns and install a methane digester to capture methane from manure for energy production. This would reduce energy and fertilizer costs while minimizing environmental impacts.
Simple ways to live a life free from plastic pollution
Plastic pollution is a major threat as 250 babies are born every minute while a million plastic bottles are bought worldwide every minute, accounting for 0.3 billion plastic waste yearly. Plastic makes up 90% of ocean trash. The document suggests replacing disposables with reusable items, avoiding plastic water bottles and microbeads, buying used goods, refusing plastic bags, and using eco-friendly products. The Ponty Chadha Foundation's Mata Bhagwanti Chadha Niketan school encourages disabled students to make reusable bags and boxes from recyclable materials through an initiative called Swayam, helping reduce plastic pollution while making students financially independent and environmentally responsible.

The document proposes developing multi-functional eco-infrastructures in Belize City through inhabiting mangrove forests. It suggests evolving the existing "palafito" housing typology to conserve mangroves while producing renewable energy, sustainable water and food. This would help mitigate risks from hurricanes, flooding and sea level rise while providing housing and transforming risks into development opportunities. Diagrams show how the typology could create neighborhoods within mangroves as climate-adaptive infrastructure.
Marine Debris
Marine debris is any man-made item that does not belong in the ocean. It can directly harm ocean life through ingestion or entanglement, and indirectly by damaging coral reefs and beaches. It also poses economic costs through impacts on tourism, fishing, and navigation, and human health risks from injuries. Sources of marine debris include improper individual and industrial waste disposal, poor waste management by municipalities, and natural disasters. Reducing, reusing, and recycling can help address this problem by decreasing the amount of trash that enters waterways and oceans.

Recycling pptcis100
Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into reusable materials. Common items that can be recycled include paper, plastic, metal, clothing, and electronics. Recycling helps reduce waste sent to landfills and decreases the consumption of new raw materials. It also lowers energy usage and environmental pollution. Failure to recycle has negative consequences like plastic bottles taking up to 1,000 years to decompose in landfills. Increased recycling efforts are needed since only about 1% of plastic bags currently get recycled.

Water resources
This document discusses water resources and pollution. It notes that while water covers 71% of the Earth's surface, only 3% is freshwater and 1% is accessible for human use. However, human activities like untreated wastewater and industrial waste are polluting existing water sources. Water pollution poses serious risks to health and marine ecosystems. To reduce pollution, individuals should conserve water, properly dispose of chemicals, and support sustainable agriculture and land management practices. Collective action is needed to address this urgent problem and protect our limited water resources.
